Bush offers Pentagon as 'lead agency' in disasters

Amazing... instead of fixing FEMA, he is going to try to get the juridiction using military ... even if it is not permitted now ...
So what! change the law of the land ...I'm George Bush, your leader against the terrorists ....

That would require a change of law, since the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 forbids the military from performing civilian law enforcement duties. Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld is investigating possible reforms to the act, which Pentagon officials consider archaic.
Quote:
The remarks came 10 days after the president first floated the idea during an address to the nation from New Orleans, which was devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Having been sharply criticized for the federal government's slow response to the storm, Mr. Bush called for increased powers for the White House and Pentagon.
