Can you imagine if McCain had proposed something like this? I would ask where the mainstream media is on this but I already know the answer.

I would like to understand what exactly he is talking about. Equally powerful and well funded? Why do we need such a thing when we have the greatest military and police force in the world? To whom would this civilian national security force report to? What authority is he contemplating for these "civilians"? Will they be armed? Will they operate domestically or internationally? Where will they be trained? This concept is Orwellian to say the least and deserves significant scrutiny. On a superficial level this seems to me a comparison to what 3rd world dictators have paramilitary groups that terrorize and keep the civilian population under control.

This is one of the many, many reasons that I believe strongly that we do not know enough about this man to trust him with the Presidency. Remember, for those of you who like him. Any power or group he creates will someday be in the hands of a Republican administration so beware what you ask for as you may get it.
