$87 Billion and Martial Law?
Remember the 87 Billion Congressional Payout? I distinctly remember someone from the Congressional Black Caucus at the time expressing outrage over some language related to establishing domestic martial law (with allocations of money) being slipped into that bill.

The 87 Billion was supposed to be to "support the troops". Yep.

I have never found anyone who knew specifically what that language in the bill was, but I believe it would be rather revealing, or at least suggestive of the neocon plans and strategies for the next few years.

Anyone know anything about it? Can anyone find out?
