I find the way our current government likes to skirt around the Constitution just down right an insult to the people of this nation and especially to the founding fathers. I truly believe that our government has lost it’s moral and legal authority to govern. Thomas Jefferson wrote in his day that it is the right of the people when the government intrudes on the rights of the people and loses said moral authority then they can replace the government with one who has maintains their rights and possesses that moral authority.
I’m impressed that there are some states are talking about refusing money from the “Pork Bill” AKA the Stimulus Package. This package, if you get a chance to read it, is filled with nothing but pork for loyal liberal lawmakers. It may do some stimulating of the economy for a few months with some government building projects, but does nothing to fix the economy. Note to liberals, tax breaks for small businesses to be able to hire more people will fix the economy. Unfortunately, I believe in the end these brave states will cave to the federal government like they always do and take the money. Since Abe Lincoln gutted states’ rights after the War for Southern Independence, states always give in to the blackmail and bribery of the feds. I was encouraged to hear that twenty six states are considering measures reaffirming their state sovereignty. If these states are firm in their convictions and hold true maybe we can begin to break the backs of the liberal who are leading our nation to disaster. We must all write letters to editors and call our state reps to follow through with these bills and strike a blow for states’ rights.
