Governors Oppose Federal Control of Guard

Well, of course they do. They see the Authoritarian writing on the wall, even if the populace doesn't.

It can hapen here. As a matter of fact it already is happening here. Of course, some people will not realize that unitil they are in concentration camps surrounded by razor wire.

Governors Oppose Federal Control of Guard:

The nation's governors, protesting what they call an unprecedented shift in authority from the states to the federal government, will urge Congress today to block legislation that would allow the president to take control of National Guard forces in the event of a natural disaster or a threat to homeland security.

In a sharply worded letter that will be transmitted to Republican and Democratic leaders in Congress this morning, the governors ask that a House-Senate conference committee remove a provision included in the House-passed version of the National Defense Authorization Act giving the president such authority.
