You are playing fast and loose with some very clear laws. Bush can mobilize the Naitonal Guard for war or national emergencies. The real problem, however, is the law and order issue and there he is powerless under Posse Comitatus. The Governor had to act. Period.

The prez can declare martial law, and the Posse Comitatus law is suspended. IF that was what was hamstringing him, then cut the Gordian Knot with a sword, don't fiddle with trying to untie the knot.
