President Bush Repeals Posse Comitatus?

This website from an admittedly liberal-leaning group claims that a new law was signed today by President Bush that essentially repeals the posse camitatus law which forbids the use of the military on American soil. They claim that the new law would allow a president to declare martial law and imprison "undesirables".

For the current President, "enforcement of the laws to restore public order" means to commandeer guardsmen from any state, over the objections of local governmental, military and local police entities; ship them off to another state; conscript them in a law enforcement mode; and set them loose against "disorderly" citizenry - protesters, possibly, or those who object to forced vaccinations and quarantines in the event of a bio-terror event.

The law also facilitates militarized police round-ups and detention of protesters, so called "illegal aliens," "potential terrorists" and other "undesirables" for detention in facilities already contracted for and under construction by Halliburton. That's right. Under the cover of a trumped-up "immigration emergency" and the frenzied militarization of the southern border, detention camps are being constructed right under our noses, camps designed for anyone who resists the foreign and domestic agenda of the Bush administration.

Normally, I wouldn't report on such alarmist talk from an anti-Bush site, but I have a feeling this may wind up being a matter of considerable discussion and debate over the next week as we lead up to the election.
