Seriously folks. Have they boiled us frogs slowly?
Are we close to a Police State?
Am I just being paranoid?
Are we living in Martial Law right now?

Are we living in Martial Law right now?
And crawling on the planet's face
Some insects called the human race
Lost in time
And lost in space...and meaning

Sometimes paranoid is okay.
Take a look at this recent article in Slate.com about a secret directive from the president that could conceivably allow the president and vice-president to stage a coup: http://www.slate.com/id/2176185/
I'd like to think that it would never come into play, but the fact that it exists and parts are hidden even from those in Congress that have the highest security clearance is cause for concern, if only because of the principle involved.
I may be going to hell in a bucket, babe / But at least I'm enjoying the ride.

It's not paranoia.
We're just one big hurricane
or perhaps one big pandemic
or one more "terr'ist attack"
away from martial law.
