Why? It's been around for decades. What is your concern?

A. Did you read it?

B. If it has been around for decades why has it been changed now?

I'm missing it: what has been significantly changed other than updating, given the bottom several paragraphs? What is the concern that they've "slipped through" in the update?

I agree small changes can bring big consequences to reality (Patriot Act) but I simply don't know the specific concern here. Not saying there isn't one, just tell me what it is, I'm missing it.

You're much further ahead to ignore this vapid, pre-programmed cow.

Fortunately I don't subject myself to her insolent drivel.

This is just another cog in the wheel of the Orwellian nightmare that Obama is trying to obliterate our Constitution with.

Now, any US citizen that happens to be a foreign correspondent, particularly in one of his unprovoked war action territories, can now be considered at Terrorist sympathizer if they don't tote the party line in their reporting and held indefinitely -

Question: What is the difference between the National Defense Resources Preparedness Executive Order, that Clip Clop references; and the entirely different HR 1540, the National Defense Authorization Act as passed by Congress, that Rude Boy quotes?

Answer: Rude Boy Elvis clearly doesn't note the difference. They are two entirely different things.

How vapid of him. How pre-programmed of him.
Oh, teh stupid. It burns.

In regards to Clip Clops reference, here is Snopes discussing the Nat. Defense Resources Preparedness Executive Order and the false fears currently flying around the internet about it. http://www.snopes.com/politics/obama/ndrp.asp

Which, again, has nothing at all to do with the entirely different thing Rude Boy Elvis is moronically bellowing on about.

For me, it comes down to recent redefining of "National Defense" and the inclusion of DHS. DHS has been given far too wide a berth since its inception and the wording of this EO is definitely far too broad brush for my tastes.

Absolutely. that was entirely my point as well. And anyone with an ounce of logical comprehension gets there too.
Unfortunately, when this blowharded sow is quoted, attacking me, I will defend myself. But no defense is really required. Anyone with a 5th grade level of reading comprehension can read my quote:

>>>This is just another cog in the wheel of the Orwellian nightmare that Obama is trying to obliterate our Constitution with.<<<

Another, as in; "in addition to". Get it? I still doubt you do.

Another Constitutional shredding EO, which is part and parcel for this president who's believes he's above and holds nothing but disdain for the Supreme Court of the United States.

Isn't it time for you to crawl back up a cow's ass.hole? - what a perfect occupation you've chosen for yourself...

"National Defense" hasn't been redefined in the Executive Order document you reference. It's an executive order first put in place under Truman, and re-upped by every President since. It doesn't give any President any powers at all outside of his current legal powers.

It clearly, in the last page, has multiple exemptions explaining how, exactly, it specifically is not to be construed as such.

Did you read the Snopes comments about this? Please, read that.

Rude Boy Elvis is, of course, referencing something entirely different, a law passed by Congress, and something to have due concern about. It appears he's confused the two different items. Perhaps as they both have the words "national defense" in the title.
