Waiting on Texas session to open. We’ll see just what our Texas boys are made of. I’d like nothing better than on the first day one of our state patriots submits a resolution, or better yet a bill, for consideration. whOOt! Will be making some phone calls to some of the locals to apprise them of 10th amendment developments just in case they aren’t aware of ‘em ;^)

In explaining the Constitution, James Madison, the document's acknowledged father, wrote in Federalist Paper 45:
“The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the state governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation and foreign commerce.”
Has the Constitution been amended to permit Congress to tax, spend and regulate as it pleases or have Americans said, “To hell with the Constitution”?
FGS: Do you think we should concentrate our efforts in our States now? We are getting nowhere with phone calls to our Fed Reps.
Maybe if enough State Republicans use some muscle, we can get some national publicity, and the public's attention. A public that sorely needs some civic and constitutional education.
We must get them away from the spell of Obama....soon.
