It's getting so you just can't tell what's too fantastic to credit and what isn't.

Yup.
Though with those lovely letters it's not even legal to say that you got one.
Most open and transparent government yet.
Edit: Seems this situation has been "fluid and developing" for a few years:

When did all Guard units get federalized?
...and, what DryBones said.
Here's what Virginia has in that arena:

I don't know the size of any of he Brigades or Battalions, and I'm pretty sure that the Aviation folks don't have any squadrons of jet fighters. Looks like that have an OE-1 Bird dog and no much else.

Not that snopes is reliable - the fact that the exact same information was posted on the snopes.com forum in June 2010 leads me to believe that this isn;t true.

Quoted from one of the linked articles:
Obama fearing a revolution against him by the states, has moved swiftly by nationalizing nearly all National Guard Forces in multiple states; Georgia, Alabama, Kansas, Minnesota, Tennessee, Virginia, Louisiana, South Carolina – to name a few. The Governors of the Great States of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and Virginia still have under their Command-and-Control the State Defense Forces to go against U.S. Federal forces should the need arise.
Can anyone verify the current state of National Guard units in VA? I know when my wife was in just two years ago, there was dual tasking for both state and Federal, which to me calls in to question the 'availability' of said troops to the Governor if he needed to use them to protect VA in a secession scenario. One of the things that led me to this forum was searching out info on the State Defense Force and militia groups, which unfortunately seem woefully inadequate....

snopes has been proven in the past to not be reliable and I trust it about as much I do the Southern Poverty group
But on this I think that I need my

on until it is proven with reliable sources

Ignorable for now, although this is all over the net, not from anything I'd call reliable.

For what it's worth;
According to Snopes, this started back in 2010. Here is the link they gave:

It would seem to me, that if this were true, that the 14 governers in question, or at least one or two of them, would have raised a stink about it and it would have been all over the news. Well, maybe not the we Protect Obama news like CBS, NBC, ABC,.....you get my drift. I would also think that Fox News would have posted something about it.
I wouldn't put it past the president to do something like this, but I have to aggree with taggure on this one,

time!

Yeah doesn't sound right. I'd also think it would be all over the place. I think the thing to track would be whether these SDF forces are really being created. No SDF force, no paper.
