So are you saying the previous Administration's Vice president Al Gore worked for Haliburton?

Default Re: Amazing!

It has been posted many times.

The President does not need the Governor's permission to Federalize National Guard troops.

You even found one act that grants him this power himself. Daddy Bush used this power in 1992. It doesn't matter that he had the Calif. Governor's approval, HE DIDN'T NEED IT.

This power is also given to him in the event of a National Disaster or Emergency. Read the powers granted to FEMA.
The President can give FEMA permission to use ANY and ALL government resources when a National Disaster has been declared.

This power is also given to him in the event of a terrorist attack (or emergency or National calamity). These provisions were added at the creation the HomeLand Security Dept. and part of the Patriot Act.

The relevent Federal Law has been posted many times, in several different formats.

Reread the President's Proclamation I posted earlier in this very thread, do you see if paraphrased with "Since I have the Governor's permission ..." ?

Default Lying Liars, and the Lying Lies they tell.

Here is another clause giving the President the power:

Exception to needing the Governor's permission for the President to Federal National Guard Troops includes preventing the loss of life or property during serious disturbances or calamities , and protecting Federal property and governmental functions.
Reserve Mobilization: (10 U.S.C. § 12304(b))

One more time in case you missed it:
includes preventing the loss of life or property during serious disturbances or calamities , and protecting Federal property and governmental functions.
Reserve Mobilization: (10 U.S.C. § 12304(b))


Here is something else he DIDN'T do:

In addition to Guard help, the federal government could have activated, but did not, a major air support plan under a pre-existing contract with airlines. The program, called Civilian Reserve Air Fleet, lets the government quickly put private cargo and passenger planes into service.

So, not only could he send in the National Guard, federalize the State's own National Guard, send in the 82nd Airborne (which was actually anticipating the order and was waiting), he can also start seizing and using private property (private cargo and passenger planes).
