Most FReepers are aware of these links, but I post anyway for review and for people new to Article V. It is our responsibility to make Article V the most understood aspect of the US Constitution.
The longer we wait, the bigger the risk of nullification, secession or outright civil war.

THIS IS A BIGGIE: Closing constitutional loopholes created by calculated liberal attacks using "case law."
As FReeper Publius posted: The federal government follows the Constitution to the letter. Unfortunately, it's the Living Constitution, the Constitution symbolized as a Tree, the Constitution that evolves with the times even though its words never change, the Constitution of penumbras and emanations, that the federal government follows.
When the federal entity goes beyond the Constitution's words to govern by penumbras and emanations, then the states should modify the words by amendment to restrict what the federal government can and cannot do. phrases like “shall not” and “can not be infringed” are cloudy in their meanings. It’s time to take away their self designed exemptions and selective enforcement for their fellow oligarchs.
They need to live according to their own laws under Sections VII - IX. It’s called “case law”, or “precedent”. When you build an edifice of case law, you modify and change the meaning of words until they mean something that is quite different from their original intent (hat tip to Publius).
