How did your US House Rep Vote for National Defense Authorization Act (HR 1540)?

To be clear, Sen Levins and McCain have added in the secret provision to allow for the "indefinite imprisonment without trial or charge" of any American citizen in the Senate version of the NDAA, however it was the House that allowed for the US Armed Forces to operate in the US effectively killing posse commitus in Section 1034 of House version of the bill (HR 1540) passed in June 2011, which is in the Senate version as well. However, I think it's fair to say that posse commitus was killed long before in the Patriot Act, but is now only becoming open law.

Here's how the House voted on this bill this summer:

And here is the link to the bill, HR 1540, passed this summer.

You'll note that almost the entire House voted for this.

There is one final conclusion I've understood for quite a while now and I think it's time America woke up to, and this is the clear and undeniable fact that both parties are systematically forcing us into a manufactured police state.
