This is a trial balloon to gauge the outrage, and to lay the groundwork (should they feel they can get away with it based on the response they got) for a suspension of habeas corpus if economic conditions worsen.

I too have been shouting this since 2001 and was called things I can't repeat here. Oddly, the stone-throwing came from many who staunchly supported GWB. I told them then that he was setting the stage (as an NWO elitist himself) for the loss of our God-given rights and our flip to outright communism. Obama is just another member of that same club who is going to continue pushing the NWO agenda as far as he can. His replacement (if we don't fight back) will do the same.
I, for one, intend to fight back.
