The Fix is In!

Well for those who have wondered whether the Good 'Ole U.S. of A. could succumb to a dictatorship, well wait no longer! Our glorious decider has taken upon himself to take complete control of the Federal Government in the event of a 'National Disaster or Emergency' and of course he gets to decide what constitutes such a circumstance!

Straight from the White House website!
National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive

NATIONAL SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL DIRECTIVE/NSPD 51

HOMELAND SECURITY PRESIDENTIAL DIRECTIVE/HSPD-20

Subject: National Continuity Policy

Purpose

(1) This directive establishes a comprehensive national policy on the continuity of Federal Government structures and operations and a single National Continuity Coordinator responsible for coordinating the development and implementation of Federal continuity policies. This policy establishes "National Essential Functions," prescribes continuity requirements for all executive departments and agencies, and provides guidance for State, local, territorial, and tribal governments, and private sector organizations in order to ensure a comprehensive and integrated national continuity program that will enhance the credibility of our national security posture and enable a more rapid and effective response to and recovery from a national emergency.

LINK TO THE REST


So remember everyone, when a national emergency is declared this country will no longer be the republic for which it stands! Good luck everyone!
