As it is now the military can and does provide a great deal of support during disasters. Their current powers only limit their ability to act as police if I'm not mistaken, please correct me if that's not right.

Why then does bush* feel the need for Congress "take a look at circumstances that may need to vest the capacity of the president to move beyond that debate."

Since you don't think he's attempting to overturn Posse Comitatus Act, what do you feel he's getting at?

The military role is fine the way it stands now to my way of thinking. For some reason bush* doesn't appear to agree with me. He's the one who's wanting to expand on what already exist.

I'm not into fear mongering, but I do enjoy healthy speculation. From the vast number of articles that have been published on this topic I would have to say I'm not the only one who's speculating on this matter.
