Ridge: U.S. considers use of military as police officers

Terrible, terrible. The administration seems married to its "review" of Posse Comitatus, even while it keeps saying it's not important and there won't be any major changes. Then why do it?

Instapundit, meanwhile, is trying to stick this one on Joe Biden, even calling it a Biden "initiative" on the strength of a Washington Times story. That dog won't hunt, not least because the real Times was talking about it on Saturday night, before Biden ever mentioned it. Also, Biden in the story linked above says that he's "not talking about general police power." General Eberhart, on the other hand, was talking (presumably routine) surveillance.
