From the Minneapolis St Paul Star Tribune:

The tone of it was that this was an anachronistic kind of hollow grandstanding. They don't take it seriously. Just look at this from someone who should know better:

Richard Hesse, professor emeritus of constitutional law at the Franklin Pierce Law Center in Concord, said Itse's resolution could strip authority from state leaders, as well as from Congress and the president.

"When you think about this claim that if a state believes a federal law is unconstitutional it can just ignore it, then I presume if a county believed a state law was unconstitutional it could just ignore it," Hesse said. "Really what's implicit in this is an unwillingness to recognize a lawful authority."

Here's a professor emeritus of constitutional law who doesn't get that a law is not a law if it is unconstitutional. It has no power if it's unconstiutional - I don't care who drafted it.

This is the level of disregard for our founding documents that we're dealing with here.

These are resolutions.

When the media reports on the weather or baseball scores, those are something. Unlike a resolution ... which has the full force of nothing.

I've thought the same thing.

Now if they would say. If not stopped we "will" secede from the union. Then it would have more merit.

You REALLY need to hear these radio broadcasts before you think this is a good thing. The Constitution is not dead; it's just not being used right now.
The following is the archive page for Radio Broadcasting Network. Listen to the archives of the following two hosts; Ralph Winterrowd and Chris Hinkley.

This isn't the same script

Submitted by Indian_Patriot on Tue, 03/03/2009 - 03:22.

This isn't the same script that started the Civil War, this is a protection of the entire Union! If 37 States approve sovereignty bills, what it means is that the President of the United States and Congress are null and a new election is begun. AMEN! Hmm, I thinking about writing a book and calling it "How to Steal and Buy an election. The Story of Barry Obama and his use of ACORN".

Go flip the history on

Submitted by mudslinger on Sat, 02/07/2009 - 00:51.

Go flip the history on Germany and see how Hitler rose to power. State sovereignty means Federal military invasion? Just bring the second Lincoln on. Seperation of power can only contribute to peace.

Thanks for the summary
