1. Coupled with the removal of restrictions on using military in our country

This doesnt give me the warm and fuzzies.

2. come on people...

if this doesn;t open your eyes to the fact that Obama is a New World Order Puppet...nothing will...

probably not even a declaration of marshal law...

I just wish I could get the hell out of here...

but there is nowhere to go...

this is slowly happening everywhere...
some places are even further accelerated than we are...

3. This was required by the 2008 National Defense Authorization Act

What, in particular, is alarming to you?

"establishing a Council of Governors to strengthen further the partnership between the Federal Government and State Governments to protect our Nation against all types of hazards. When appointed, the Council will be reviewing such matters as involving the National Guard of the various States; homeland defense; civil support; synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States; and other matters of mutual interest pertaining to National Guard, homeland defense, and civil support activities.

The bipartisan Council will be composed of ten State Governors who will be selected by the President to serve two year terms. In selecting the Governors to the Council, the White House will solicit input from Governors and Governors’ associations. Once chosen, the Council will have no more than five members from the same party and represent the Nation as a whole."

5. I was being serious. I read this and was not alarmed, what bothers you?

By the way - I don't follow football, or hockey, basketball or NASCAR.

Now ask me about the spring classic bike races and we can chat sports!

7. This sounds pretty good. The State National Guard units have always had a hand in civil defense...

... if that's the right word for helping rescue people from natural disasters, and it makes a lot of sense for state governors to have a formal mechanism to coordinate response to events that are geographically regional and don't stop at the state line.

8. A Huge Blow To Freedom

the federal government was never meant to have such powers and controls over all these localities.
