Martial Law in America Today

Yikes....on October 1, 2008, the President ordered the an army brigade to be assigned to the homeland to attend to civil unrest (i.e., protests and November 4th election day). Naomi Wolf, feminist, author and historian, has been giving interviews on her fear of martial law and the beginning of the end of democracy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_XgkeTanCGI

For more depressing news, see congressman Brad Sherman on Martial Law threat by the President and why this bailout is a terrible idea.

This article from salon seems to say that 1 brigade will not greatly affect the election this November 4, 2008, but it is a dangerous precedent........
