This is a recreation of the Kentucky Resolution of 1798, authored by Jefferson, in response to the Alien & Sedition Acts.
What it is, in essence, is nullification. A state (AND ITS PEOPLE. as state-level representation is a truer reflection of constituency interest than insulated congress-things could ever comprehend) saying, "Hell NO!"
Other forms of de facto nullification are already in place -- liberal cities refusing to enforce federal immigration laws, for instance.
It's only when a group stands up to LIBERAL federal interests that they get slapped down.
A link to the Library of Congress site with the original nullification documents' transcripts, as drafted by the original libertarian.
i'd html it up all pretty and all, but haven't really invested the time to learn the keystrokes:
