Could you provide this, please? I don't feel like an easter egg hunt today.

Prove it.

I think you will see this ability for the "Commander in Chief" to control his forces was further strengthed in provisions of the Patriot Act, and the formation of the HomeLand Security Dept.

The Nat'l Guard are not "his". They belong to the state.

What is the sense of having a National centralized HomeLand Security Department if it is hamstrung by the will of 50 different State Governors.

There's way more to the DHS than just federalizing the Guard.

BUT THANK YOU! You point out the fallacy of the great "President can't send troops without permission" lie by pointing out one of the many means in which he could have done it.

Many? There are very few circumstances in which the President can do this and I've yet to see one that applies. I'd like to see you back up your claim that POTUS can do this under the circumstances.
