    Fear works – people feel “safe” because everyone must line up for inspection at the airports, must go through metal detectors in public buildings, and etc.

    Fear probably swayed some votes in the House – not everyone got some kind of pork!

    Hmm, we’ll keep an eye on this guy – someone who’s actually paying attention over there! I’m writing him to convey my appreciation.

  6. hhopper says:

    I think a lot of people are paying attention over there… they’re just keeping their mouths shut.

    These Bastards were not elected to run the country by fear, they were elected to act in the best interest of the American people.

    Please! This has been posted in so many places recently. The “Martial Law” in this case refers not to tanks outside your house, but to a procedural rule in The House of Representatives that allows the House to vote on a bill without the normal waiting period.

    I’m the first to acknowledge that tanks in the street – shred the Constitution martial law is a neocon wet dream, but this isn’t it.

    Cheney and his president still have over a hundred days still.

  10. Jägermeister says:

    Fear has been the modus operandi of the current regime.

  11. the answer says:

    Didn’t we go over this already? That the martial law that was stated before with this was only a monetary issue.

  12. Mr. Fusion says:

    This was not previously covered. This was before the vote on the revised bill the Senate had already passed.

    At 0:27

    …and a few members were even told that there would be martial law in America if we voted no.

    The other comment people refer to was by Michael Burgess on Monday, Sept. 29.

    At 1:17

    Mr Speaker, I understand we are under Martial Law as declared by the Speaker last night

  13. deowll says:

    Okay our fearless leaders tried to frighten people into acting in a hasty and ill advised manner. It worked didn’t it? They got what the wanted and we got the bill.

    Just contact your local congress vermine and tell them how much you appreciate what they have done for you.

    Silence gives consent.

  14. ECA says:

    I have to ask something..
    How many of you REMEMBER the BUSH BILL, about Martial Law and ELECTIONS..

    I wonder if it passed.

  15. Dexton7 says:

    #15 Which one?

    The Patriot Act
    The Patriot Act II
    John Warner Defense Act
    The Military Commissions Act
    REX 84

    They’re all quite horrible.

    One morning we may wake up with the mother of all depressions upon us and someone’s military or mercenaries rolling down main street – doing God knows what to us.

    Please send a thank you card to our corrupt bankers, federal reserve chairmen, and politicians near the top.

    If anyone thinks I’m wrong… I hope I’m wrong too.

    Extending Mr. Fusion’s point…

    This is not the same as the clip on suspending house rules. This guy was briefly interviewed on a very well known “conspiracy” radio show, and he said that members he would not name said they were threatened that failure to endorse the bill would lead to martial law in America (presumably on the basis of social strife due to financial collapse, and legislation is already in effect for such circumstances). I presume he thought he was on to discuss the bill and he almost immediately said he had to go (from the interview) and he did.

    Michael Burgess was interviewed on the same show and confirmed that he was referring to suspending House oversight rules (which should also concern you).

    The Republicrats & Demopublicans leaders are both heading down the same path. Be informed and prepared not terrorised and paralysed.

    Read about Naomi Wolf and her 2 books. Watch her interview from earlier this month on You Tube. This nation is headed toward a Fascist Dictatorship very rapidly. If you would like to save your Civil Liberties then we need to act now, we are running out of time. Before you argue with me and question what I am stating, just look up Naomi Wolf on Google.
