  • Posse Comitatus is another liberal regulation on a corporation's right to do their work freely in America. Basically posse comitatus prevents federally uniformed troops from protecting Americans from filthy, filthy communists terrorists from hating us for our freedoms.
  • "Previously on the West Wing" spoken by Sam In the season finale, President Bartlet (Martin Sheen) encounters Governor Ritchie (James Brolin)—his Republican presidential rival—during a Broadway play while the President faces a terrorist threat after he discovers that Abdul ibn Shareef, the Qumari Defense Minister, has been supporting terrorism. Bartlet finally comes to the decision to go ahead with the covert op that will have Shareef killed. As the President watches the play, the order is given. With the pretext of a mechanical failure, the plane lands on a remote airfield in Bermuda, where Shareef is gunned down by U.S. Navy SEALs. When Josh (Bradley Whitford) supports a key welfare reform bill that his feminist activist/lover Amy (Mary-Louise Parker) opposes, it threatens their personal relationship. Elsewhere, the flirtation between C.J. (Allison Janney) and Secret Service bodyguard Simon Donovan (Mark Harmon) that had been limited by the boundaries of their professional relationship is free to grow more serious after the man sending her death threats is apprehended. However, it ends in tragedy as Donovan is gunned down while attempting to stop a convenience store robbery.

On the American frontier the concept legally justified groups of armed citizens temporarily deputized by a sheriff and known as the posse. This in turn was used to legitimate vigilante committees. In the United States, the Posse Comitatus Act of 1878 generally prohibits military forces from performing ordinary civilian law enforcement functions such as arrest, surveillance, interdiction, search and seizure. There are, however, exceptions.
