Hmmm... sounds exactly like the justification for the Patriot Act, the invasion of Afghanistan, the invasion of Iraq and most political decisions made by Bush. Just replace the word "crisis" for either "terrorists" or "WMDs".

Now, I'm not much a fan of what Obama is doing in terms of the possible healthcare plan or *some* of the regulations. However, the way he's trying to campaign support for them is no different than how most policies were pushed through in the last 8 years.

It's business as usual and the American public is still stupid enough to fall for it.
