Maybe its time to look at another location to emigrate to?
I started a thread 6 months ago about how the governments were moving toward a police state and got chastised and laughed at. Now people who chastised me for my comments then are saying similar things here. What has changed in such a short time. I had mentioned how Posse Comantadus had been repealed and the Patriot Act extended (using the supposed assassination of Bin Laden as reason). I just have to wonder how far it will go before more people realize what is happening.
My bet is Obama will cave at the last minute and sign it into law citing some special circumstance or intelligence report. Possibly starting a war with Iran.
I hear good things about Greenland.
Yea, Yea, you can all move to Greenland.
There was a time not so many months ago when anyone suggesting American Civil War 2 would have been laughed at. Suppression of westerners and particularly US Americans has entered the material stage, big time, now that the education system has marinated the consumer. Holly Wood has been very bad schooling.
god bless vice president Harper
A radio news report indicated Obama plans on vetoing it if it reaches his desk. You have to wonder why it is being pushed and how certain pols plan on gaining from pushing it. Well, we'll see what happens next.

We have always had those crazy powers you refer to, and have used them occasionally in the past when needed. Just read our history.

I'm well aware ironsides. Shredding the constitution for "exceptional" circumstances, like a war against your own citizens, makes it basically worthless.
"The government shall be allowed to abridge the rights of the people to X whenever it is inconvenient for the government to permit such rights."
I am trying to find out where that is written, however.
Here is a starting place for you.
"Canada, U.S. agree to use each other’s troops in civil emergencies
Canada and the U.S. have signed an agreement that paves the way for the militaries from either nation to send troops across each other’s borders during an emergency, but some are questioning why the Harper government has kept silent on the deal.
Canada and the U.S. have signed an agreement that paves the way for the militaries from either nation to send troops across each other’s borders during an emergency, but some are questioning why the Harper government has kept silent on the deal.
Neither the Canadian government nor the Canadian Forces announced the new agreement, which was signed Feb. 14 in Texas.
The U.S. military’s Northern Command, however, publicized the agreement with a statement outlining how its top officer, Gen. Gene Renuart, and Canadian Lt.-Gen. Marc Dumais, head of Canada Command, signed the plan, which allows the military from one nation to support the armed forces of the other nation during a civil emergency.
The new agreement has been greeted with suspicion by the left wing in Canada and the right wing in the U.S."

I'm not worried about this. Probably because I'm not paranoid.
But I have to say that this line....
I just find deliciously funny! Oh politics makes such strange bedfellows.

I'm fine with this also.
It's ridiculous, polar opposite ideologies but both opposed. Wonder why?
Oh yes, because each ones respective government, the government behind the deal, is not to their liking.
My enemies enemy is the enemy of my friend. Or something like that.
