The Party's Over

This is the end of the great democracy experiment. Note the date on the White House press release is May 9, 2007.
National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive

Tell me they aren't setting up for a dictatorship. Matthew Rothschild at The Progressive Magazine has an informative article about it.

With scarcely a mention in the mainstream media, President Bush has ordered up a plan for responding to a catastrophic attack.

In a new National Security Presidential Directive, Bush lays out his plans for dealing with a “catastrophic emergency.”

Under that plan, he entrusts himself with leading the entire federal government, not just the Executive Branch. And he gives himself the responsibility “for ensuring constitutional government.”

He laid this all out in a document entitled "National Security Presidential Directive/NSPD 51" and "Homeland Security Presidential Directive/HSPD-20."

The White House released it on May 9.

I feel like a German citizen in 1937. I really wish I had the resources to move my family to another country.
