I feel exactly the same way. I'd also support the repeal of the 14th and 17th amendments, two amendments which have done more to destroy federalism than the Commerce Clause ever will.
That said, bear in mind that the Supremacy Clause does state that federal law trumps state law. If Congress chooses to constitutionally act on an issue, the states are bound by the U.S. Constitution to comply.
The states should be able to regulate the moral and legal tone that represents the will of the people in those states -- including regulation of abortion, legalization of marijuana, etc.
Ryan, does this mean you support State prohibitions on guns? Paulsen claims CA's 'assault weapon ban' is perfectly Constitutional.

Bobby, a states so-called 'right' to ignore our Constitution should be 'destroyed'.

Yep, the states are bound by the U.S. Constitution [Article VI] to comply with the Bill of Rights, and all other Amendments, regardless of whether "-- Congress chooses to constitutionally act on an issue --".
