new presidential directive gives Bush dictatorial power

In case you missed it (and you likely did because the media missed it or refused to publicize it), The National Security and Homeland Security Presidential Directive, signed on May 9, 2007 declares that in the event of a "catastrophic event", George W. Bush can become what is best described as "a dictator":

"The President shall lead the activities of the Federal Government for ensuring constitutional government."

This directive, completely unnoticed by the media, and given no scrutiny by Congress, literally gives the White House unprecedented dictatorial power over the government and the country, bypassing the US Congress and obliterating the separation of powers. The directive also placed the Secretary of Homeland Security in charge of domestic "security"...

...This is another step towards official martial law, which suggests that a new "catastrophic event" 9/11-type pretext could be in the pipeline.

Surfin': When "Radio" Was a Verb

This week, the wayback machine is idling and ready to take you back to the days when radio was king. So, get on board the wayback machine in this week’s Surfin’, then come back here to leave your comments, if any.

By the way, Surfin’ is a weekly column published on ARRLWeb that finds and features Web sites that are related to Amateur Radio, specifically, and radio, in general. If you have any suggestions for Surfin’, please contact WA1LOU using the e-mail link to the right.
