That was an excellent argument but it does not address how a lawless oligarchy that is a law unto itself can be forced to abide by additional yokes passed by the states when it stripped away the original yokes placed upon it by the Constitution.
Since the rule of law has become whatever the Oligarchy says the rule of law is and is not, what is the plan to enforce new laws upon the lawless?
An Amendment that is ignored, struck down by an activist judiciary or simply decreed to be void by the president, has no power.
A good statement that speaks to the heart of our present situation. This is the primary issue a CoS IMHO must deal with. The purpose of Mark Levin's amendment I mentioned is to provide the states a means to nullify federal edicts via a super majority of states as voted upon by the respective state legislatures. Can this method reign in the Feds? Maybe, if enough states vote to nullify. Will the feds follow the outcome? Maybe. If they don't we have at least tried to resolve our problems peacefully and we are no worse off then we are presently and we may argue we are a bit better off because the tyrants are further out in the open. Good reply FReeper. We need a bit more of thoughtful replies like this on FR.
