I hadn’t thought about that. A good a reason as any to tell the feds to go pound sand.
Sovereignty. Dust it off. The left seems to have covered it with dust.
What an excellent idea!
Damn straight.
No offense intended. =-)
Wouldn’t get too excited folks; this was introduced into the Oklahoma House on MARCH 13th. It got referred to the Senate Rules Committee upon passage, where it’s been since March 25th.
Grr.
Interesting....
Oh well, it was nice while it lasted.
The Federal government owns 30% of all in the country.
....and the People own 100% of the Local, State, and Fedguv.
Game, Set, Match!

If that’s true and this plays out, that MIGHT just be enough to make me vote for him. Normally, I don’t vote for libs under any circumstances, but I do understand the significance of the 10th amendment.
However, I have my doubts. We have one group here trying to reestablish the primacy of the states, and another group trying to diffuse even the concentration of power in DC to supranational alliances. McCain’s immigration position belies his loyalties.
If we get bogged down in the one-issue border thing again and let the Marxists in, the border problem is going to drop way down on the list of our problems...
Bedsides the obamama's puppeteers pulling the rug out from under our troops, and thereby US...besides their STATED goal to dismantle our military, besides their zeal to take our guns, besides Universal Health care, besides even late-term AND live birth killing, besides redistribution of wealth (not just in the U.S. = but from our pockets to the poor of the world...keep those thermostats down, no SUV's, "can't eat as much as you want to" - Dear God, does no one LISTEN to what they are saying? - besides Reparations and the stated goal to "rebuild Africa" etc etc...the flood gate for Muslims will be opened wide - particularly from Africa, starting with Kenya.
What part of all that don't people understand?
What part of being plunged into Marxism don't people understand? There will be no "If we let them in now, THEN the pubbies will listen to us and we'll have the conservatives we want in 2012. You don't GET to choose under Marxism. And it will be decades, if ever, before the country - maybe our great-great grandkids - will be able to crawl out from under it.
Yeah, do a repeat of the 2006 election mantra: vote the pubbies out of office to teach them a lesson...and recoup in 2008.
That worked out well. That gave us Reedy-boy and Peeeelosi. And where are all our uber=conservatives chomping at the gate this election?
We keep the Marxist and the Corrupt Daly Chicago Machine out now - or we're done.
why do people even think obamama will have any power? He's NOTHING but a Polished, Programmed Puppet. Follow the strings to his puppet masters which include the Chicago Machine, the Black Liberationists (intent on Black Power and making Whitey pay), and the entrenched Marxists in DC.
Oklahoma’s legislature adjourned a couple weeks ago with the bill sitting in the Senate Rules committee. Don’t think it goes back in session until Feburary. I’ll check.
That’s actually an easy argument to answer, and McCain did it for me.

This thing doesn’t even declare sovereignty. Look what it actually says:
“THAT this serve as Notice and Demand to the federal government, as our agent, to cease and desist, effective immediately, mandates that are beyond the scope of these constitutionally delegated powers.”
So, Oklahoma is politely asking the federal government to please cease and desist. No mention of any way to enforce its “sovereignty”.
“as our agent...”
You have agents and principals.
Agents work for the principals.
Agents are never the boss. Ever. This is pretty plain language.
