Interviewed yesterday on "Fox News Sunday," Mr. Biden, a member of the Judiciary Committee, said the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878, which prevents the military from exercising police powers in this country, should be re-examined and "has to be amended."
Such a change will happen soon, he said.

Straight from the horse's mouth. I'm sure the paperwork is already made up and just waiting for "just the right moment" to be presented, much like the case with the PATRIOT Act. Ready and waiting in the warm up circle.
There isn't any conspiracy, it's all out in the open. They even holler what is going to happen right from the rooftops.

Batter up!

Just a terrorist attack or two after we hit Iraq. I'm sure the paperwork is done, they just need an emergency to implement it. Market in the tank, war in Iraq, a few domestic terrorist acts and we'll be begging them to make us a police state.

"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry, infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I have done. And I am Caesar."
--Julius Caesar
