Nope.
"The contingency plan in question is the Continuity-Of-Government plan
(COG), first drafted in 1949 under the Truman regime shortly after the
Soviet Union detonated its first atomic weapon," Martin explains.
In addition to COG, "Bush has this power under Patriot I Act with the
expansion of his authority under the War Powers Act of 1947, since, it
should be remembered, a declared state of national emergency already
exists in the United States at present,"
The US has been under a "State of Emergency" since 1917. Non-stop.
The sinister part is that Bush, in the post-Patriot I environment, already
has (as we?ve said a hundred times before), the legal authority to
postpone or actually temporarily cancel the elections. These are two
different legal mechanisms.
What is the process?
