Here’s a question for everyone.
If the Constitution of the United States can be looked at as a contract between the several states and the peoples they represent so as to form a unifying government aka the Federal Government. Then if the Constitution is set aside for whatever reason isn’t that contract then null and void?
And if it is null and void then any actions the Federal government takes at that point are what? Illegal? Piratical? Tyrannical?
In any case I can see the implementation of an executive order of this type as being in that vein. I just hope that this is another one of those boiler-plate just-in-case things like all of the thousands of “War Plans” the DOD comes up with like the invasion of Penguins from the Falklands on the shores of Florida, (Little tongue in cheek there).
Uuuuhh, there’s some stuff from the history of Germany in the 1930’s which would amplify our understanding of the reaction to individual “refusing” to comply.
Look at all the use of the word during “peacetime.” It is one thing to plan the logistics for emergencies, but now it includes access to resources and people in ‘peacetime.’
So this is not just a “war warning.” Recall 0bama said last fall if congress would not cooperate...he would do things by executive order. This is what he was talking about. He has essentially found a way to do it and this EO sets the stage and essentially orders the acquisition of people and resources, even without a direct threat.
The United States must have an industrial and technological base capable of meeting national defense requirements and capable of contributing to the technological superiority of its national defense equipment in peacetime and in times of national emergency. to satisfy requirements in peacetime and times of national emergency under both emergency and non-emergency conditions

“Is this for enemies foreign or domestic? Rooting out bitter clingers? Planning martial Law in advance of the election? Resisting an imminent coup detat? Or implementing an internal communist coup detat to completely overthrow the Constitution? Getting ready to fill FEMA camps with FReepers and Red Staters?”....
Sounds pretty much like Buckwheat is getting a bit paranoid and is setting up his defence policies to thereby save his arse when it hits the fan.
We can’t get that imposter out of our country fast enough.
Oh...and PS...
Recall the he signed the legislation making the United States part of the battlefield back on New Years.

I found it at ttol. Thought I’d share.
In other words, he has declared himself a dictator.
Remember the BRAC, and "right-sizing" the military, and Les Aspin's review of two-front war capabilities?
Not to mention the wholesale, literal, evisceration of our industrial capabilities by sending them to China including ALL our latest trade secrets?
And Loral helping China with their ICBMs?
China, being the subhuman scum that they are, used this not merely to get rich; but to spread the nuclear technology to as many rogue states as they could, eh?
I think you underestimate a LOT of people.
“Read it carefully. He doesn’t need an emergency.”
BTTT
>>Not just a draft. A civilian draft, of persons of outstanding experience or ability without compensation. If they think they need you, they can compel you to work for the government for nothing.
In another thread, we were talking about everyone just walking out of a power plant and going home when entitlements become more than paychecks in the communist Obamaconomy. As a utility worker, I often wonder how they would make me go back to work. (i.e. Party status, extra perks, or just a gun to the head?)
This EO is the mechanism to enslave critical infrastructure employees while Obama voters can sit on their fat asses collecting “gummint money”.
