This belongs in the Conspiracy forum. Though Pure Crap might do also.
Care to take back your words, Sarge?

Now if the banks fail and a collapse occurs he may have to impose martial law, but it will be with Congressional approval ...
Like how getting congressional approval for the bailout involved threatening martial law?
It is bizarre. We didn't want the bailout, the stock market is still sliding, McCain is now talking about another 300 billion dolalrs for mortgages, credit has not yet eaed, the fed and other banks around the world are doing all they can, ... and it looks like at least some of this stuff, that we the people on either side of the aisle didn't want, is happening because someone in washington is saying things like 'if you don't pass it well have to impose martial law.'
And, it is a matter of record that Bush got rid of the martial comitatus thingy, and that there are now troops doing martial law training exercises on home soil -for the first time in decades.
I don't persnopally have a problem with it going under conspiracy theory, but there's plenty that is in the record that is creepy and a real departure from past administrations, on this.
Did you watch the sherman video?
I don't know.

I want to see a $750 billion federal budget for education. When Bush slashed $4.3 billion for education, I thought "Well, we need money for the wars, and we have to adhere to our budget, so ok." Now we can just print up money from nowhere and spend it as we please. I want our education system to rival China's and India's. I want my 7 year old to be affluent in Japanese language and culture. I want my 10 year old to know calculus. I want the teachers on multi-million dollar salaries.
This way, our children won't be stupid enough to ever vote for a fucking idiot like George Bush is and we won't be left with two candidates that are as passionate for being president of the united states as they are about receiving prostate exams.
You fallen for the liberal spiel. You have created such a Frankenshteen out of Bush that you have forgotten that who made him. Hoisted on you own petard if you will.
I thought he was a fucking menace the first time I heard him speak, same for Palin. This kind of shit is the kind of shit that makes me think my menace-meter is working pretty well.
We do not need martial law and threats of it and training exercises in Indianapolis - and this is my libertarian side not my liberal side speaking.
Here's a blog responding to the alternet article in the OP:
The UnCapitalist Journal - Was Martial Law Threatened?
It falls between what you are saying and what I am saying and is a reasonable summary.
If this is true it is bad.
Now if the banks fail and a collapse occurs he may have to impose martial law, but it will be with Congressional approval and it will not halt delay or prevent a New President from assuming office.
If the moon falls crashing to the earth it's bad too. Get a grip. I thought you were way more rational than this .
Why would he have to impose MARTIAL LAW?
But there is no evidence of the moon crashing into the earth. In fact physical laws prevent it anytime soon.
Brad Sherman made a damning accusation. Can we agree on this?
In October 2006, Bush signed into law the John Warner National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2007. Quietly slipped into the law at the last minute, at the request of the Bush administration, were sections changing important legal principles, dating back 200 years, which limit the U.S. government's ability to use the military to intervene in domestic affairs. These changes would allow Bush, whenever he thinks it necessary, to institute martial law--under which the military takes direct control over civilian administration.
Sarge! I'm glad you're here. You seem to be ignoring me in the other threads. Can you please tell me when you're going to denounce John McCain for lying to you?
