Defense Resources Act, Section 1001 states...

-Defense Resources Act, Section 1001, states in part: "Whenever the President shall deem that the public safety demands it, he may cause to be censored under such rules and regulations as he from time to time may establish, communications by mail, cable, radio, television or other means of transmission crossing the borders of the United States."

In that vein, FEMA "Plan D" is a 36-page document dealing with the direct takeover of all telecommunications in the event of an "emergency."

Members of the Department of Energy, another federal agency which maintains its own formidable police force, have been seen planting charges deep in the natural fissures of Yellowstone National Park. One or more nuclear explosions in these locations could alter magma levels, leading to violent eruptions from long-dormant volcanoes. Under the right circumstances, such seemingly natural emergencies could justify mobilization of FEMA.

Civil rights tensions ran high in the 1960s, based on generations-old injustices and exacerbated by such special interests as the American Communist Party. The Watts riots of 1965 in Los Angeles were duplicated on a smaller scale in Detroit, New Orleans, Newark and many other American cities. The national government was not ready to move, but the wake-up call was heard.

In April and May of 1992, Los Angeles was the home of the greatest civil disturbances since the American Civil War. The Rodney King-related riots saw more than 20,000 arrests, widespread looting as thousands upgraded their sound systems, more than 100 killed, and thousands of businesses burned. It is a matter of record that weeks earlier the Revolutionary Communist Party had been distributing pamphlets predicting these riots. Further, as the nation watched, the L.A. Police Department "stood down," according to their orders.

1. I keep saying this... the President has a lot of power, but

if he's not willing to use it, for fear of the consequences, the power is nothing more than an excuse to substitute for action by appearing to be able to do something in case it gets *really* bad.

Which is why he's going after more power post-Katrina even though he ran like hell from using the power he already coul d have called upon.
