If true, this will confirm what I’ve been thinking for a year. Via Infowars:
An Obama executive order that creates a council of state governors who will work with the feds to expand military involvement in domestic security, together with PDD 51, a Bush era executive order that gives the President dictatorial power in times of national emergency, eliminate the last roadblocks to declaring martial law in the United States.
The new order, which is entitled Establishment of the Council of Governors (PDF), creates a body of ten state governors directly appointed by Obama who will work with the federal government to help advance the “synchronization and integration of State and Federal military activities in the United States”.

This is by far the scariest story I’ve ever seen and as I stated above, I’ve seen coming for a year. Many people have and still do dismiss me as crazy, but I now firmly believe that Obama will declare Martial Law, abolish elections, and arrest people in the name of national security, saving the economy, etc. However, I don’t think he will go the way of Hitler or Stalin, though. The people are what keep the Government alive, so don’t expect Obama to do what the names above did. Your thoughts.

OK, take a breath.....
Brian Hibbert (Diary) Monday, January 18th at 4:53PM EST (link)First the executive order is real. It does establish this council of governors who’s stated purpose is to speed activation of National Guard units in the event of a national emergency (AKA Katrina).
The rest of this is built on fear and conspiracy stuff. The governors are still in charge of the national guards in their states.

Socialism doesn’t work. It looks nice on paper, but it’s been tried and it’s failed miserably every time (usually accompanied by widespread death and suffering).

Didn't the National Guard take an oath??
marshmom (Diary) Monday, January 18th at 8:44PM EST (link)The same as our military to defend the US Constitution against this type of thing? Are we really willing to believe that our own men and women in the NG would turn on us if they were given these orders?
I can tell you almost positively that the state where I live (Alabama) would most certainly not roll over for Obama over some fake, made up emergency. Even if the Governor somehow did, the local sheriff definitely wouldn’t. They’d have an enormous fight on their hands, not just from citizens, but I believe from the military and national guard.
They’d have to make an awful lot of assumptions to assert this EO without a legitimate, definite national disaster. If they do it to force a hostile takeover of the country, that would be a fight they would not and could not win.
Back AWAY from the edge SLOWLY.

It was GARBAGE THEN…..and it is GARBAGE NOW.
Jerome Corsi has been at this for a good while
Scope (Diary) Tuesday, January 19th at 8:21AM EST (link)and the only part of the Conspiracy Theory that changes is the name of the President at the time. The people of the US would never allow the Federal Government, and particularly the far left radical President to pull a Hugo Chavez. I have more faith in our military members than Mr. Corsi obviously does.
