"If and when the President decides to step it up"
Admiral Timothy Keating, Head of Northern Command, just stated on CNN. In reference to his Military Forces ready to go on this. Was it just me or did I hear a bit of an impatience in his statement? :shrug:

1. Martial Law here it comes. I thought it would be in late 07. Gas
prices are creating chaos and then * will be able to put Martial Law into place for the rest of the country.

4. Thanks for confirming that take on it ......
Funny how some people can just come out and say it 'What the f ... are you waiting for Bush? And others can pretty much say the same thing in the tone, emphasis of their voice. :) Gotta read between the lines, listen, Peace.

9. Yea isn't Bush about to hold a press conference ....
in a couple of hours? Why can't he just ACT, DO SOMETHING without the need to wait and make some sort of 'spectacle' of it all. He's an idiot. Has to get the attention doesn't he. :wtf: Lets all wait for The Emperor to Speak while the peasants die, what an idiot. I know I already said that. But it was worth repeating. :) Peace.

5. I heard a couple of FM radio DJs get rather pissy and heated
about bush themselves this morning. Now that was surprising. Clear Channel station, at that. Saying things like "bush needs to DO SOMETHING, NOW." Sounding really pissed.

My jaw dropped, hit my lap.
