Cursed By a Classical Education: Posse Comitatus a Thing of the Past?
Posse Comitatus a Thing of the Past?
In the wake of Hurricane Katrina, it appears that there’s a move afoot to throw the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 out with the floodwaters. In my not so humble opinion, this is a mistake…
I submit that the non-responsiveness of the government is not due to ineptitude, but by design, for the opportunity to do things such as you mention.

BTW Firefox doesn’t seem to open the links correctly, you’ll have to use Internet Explorer.
Sometimes I have problems with Firefox lately- don’t know if it is in the program or something else. heh.
It is tempting to think there is a gov. conspiracy theory, but logical odds work against it. The bureaucracy of our government is unwieldy and something like that would require for it to work more efficiently in the desired direction.
That is not likely. There is always the possibility that players in government might have tight enough groups to accomplish that. But the most obvious answer is that we have some elected bozos plus some bozo expectations in the populace that are then orchestrated after the fact for political purpose.
I see the last choice as the most likely explanation.
Bozo is my buzzword for the time being….
I am combozoulated, lately.
