Thanks for the heads up. I'd heard a little bit about this but you've provided a great deal more here. I need to study this for a while before I comment, other than to say this looks very bad for our country.

Please ping me if you dig up more info, Cal.

(BTW, how dem chickens doin'? ;-)

To: Calpernia; All

These democrats are truly frightening. They use the law against us - and shut out the ability of any repubs to find out what they’re up to.

The media complies and doesn’t speak a word about it.

The conservative people of America will never survive if they don’t get wise to how these people operate. We just can no longer play nice.

If people are not willing to put their reputation on the line .. then their reputation is not worth much.

The martial law that worries me the most would only occur if there was a national disaster larger than 9/11. This is not an “if” .. it’s more likely a “when”.

When this happens, in order to keep the public under control - the president can order martial law - restrict travel within the USA - have a nite-time curfew - and shoot people on sight if they dare stick their heads out of their homes.

This is what the Nazi’s did - and I have a close personal friend who lived through the martial law imposed on the Netherlands - and her stories are chilling.

I’ve read a story lately regarding the planned murder of 330,000 Americans with one suitcase full of Anthrax. If or when this kind of thing might happen there would be abject panic in the streets. This attack is supposedly going to take place in Washington D.C. - and I would not wish this on anyone - even dems I don’t like. Whoever manages to survive this - whoever is left from the govt - would have sole authority to do the unthinkable. The thought is just so scary ......

My question is .. if America is usually the rescuer of such rogues as Hitler and Hussain .. who is going to rescue America ..??

As for Pelosi and her over-reaching .. so what else is new.
