Not only did members discuss new surveillance provisions as was the publicly stated reason for the closed door session, they also discussed:
the imminent collapse of the U.S. economy to occur by September 2008,
the imminent collapse of US federal government finances by February 2009,
the possibility of Civil War inside the USA as a result of the collapse,
advance round-ups of "insurgent U.S. citizens" likely to move against the government,
The detention of those rounded-up at "REX 84" camps constructed throughout the USA,
the possibility of retaliation against members of Congress for the collapses,
the location of "safe facilities" for members of Congress and their families to reside during expected massive civil unrest
the necessary and unavoidable merger of the United States with Canada (for its natural resources) and with Mexico (for its cheap labor pool),
the issuance of a new currency - THE AMERO - for all three nations as the proposed solution to the coming economic armageddon.

Is it wrong that the thing I find most disturbing about this thread is the fact that people still can't spell martial?
Edit: or imminent, for that matter...

I question the logic of presuming that there was a 'discussion'. This was more likely a presentation of facts and time lines. One hour 'discussion' are for mid level managers and operational types, not congressional or senatorial briefings, I agree on that.
But as to whether is it enough time to cover a simple 10 point agenda and present 'facts' and 'suppositions' to the sheep calling themselves our representatives, I think it's enough time, the shorter the better. No debate required.

Hoax! The only reason I flagged this thread is so I could dig it up on Jan 1, 2009 and create a new post saying, "Hey I thought the U.S. economy was supposed to have collapsed by now?" like all of the other doomsayers threads I've been flagging and plan on rubbing in the OPs faces when they don't come true.
