The NDAA will now be sent to Obama where he is expected to sign it into law.]With these numbers his signature or lack thereof is meaningless. Numbers as high as these make it veto proof. I expect if he has not already signed he will. The question was asked earlier in this thread as to what occurred to make this new legislation "necessary". Simple : OWS. We're fucked. DawnCertainly not saying your wrong on any of your analysis/predictions......only to say it is very, VERY sad. Was it Franklin who said 'A Republic, if you can keep it!'.....looks like we just lost that and all that went with it.....there is NO saving the sinking ship now....scuttle it and start anew....though many brave souls will soon be arrested, imprisoned, tortured, without legal council or habeas corpus, etc. - even a few might well be murdered - such is the elite's fear of the new movement afoot. 200 years was about as long as we could hang on by a thread...and now even that is broken.
