Don't know what to make of this.
Just saw the video:
http://www.youtube.com/...
Rep Burgess from Texas, pleading for openness in the process of the bailout bill, says "I understand we are under martial law as declared by the speaker last night."
?
I cannot find any more info on this anywhere, and think it might be referencing the seemingly permanent 'state of emergency' that the US declared and has been operating under for years.
However, if this is the case, why would the speaker declare it only the night before Rep Burgess took the floor?
Just wanted to throw this out there.
