New Hampshire fired the first shot. Although 7 other states have similar pending resolutions and bills, Oklahoma is the first to actually pass one. Another 27 states are expected to make similar moves in the coming months. Thatll leave the country split 71-29.
Now, before you get too excited, bear in mind that all of this was likely Obamas goal. Boiled down, all of these state measures are threats of secession. Recall, if you will, Obamas obsession to be the 21st Century Abraham Lincoln, and his ominous calls to recreate and rebuild America. Who was Lincoln? Why, he was the man who preserved the Union by way of implementing military force against states that had seceded. Lincoln knew full well that he would not be preserving the Union, but that he would be conquering sovereign nations, and that he would then have to destroy their cultures and ideologies, remaking both in the image of the Norths. And that is precisely what happened in the aftermath of Lincolns war of aggression. He didnt preserve the Union, he changed it forever and handed unprecedented powers to the Federal Government.
Okay, so now Im going to run with a theory.

I hate to break it to you, but you already are, and have been for a very long time.
Either we fight with all we have or soon all will have nothing. Economic chaos is Hussein’s first goal and the sooner is comes the faster he intends to move to the next step to consolidate his power base.
The constitution allows the states to call a constitutional convention any time they like.
The sole purpose in this case would be for:
1. Ratification of an amendment repealing the 16th amendment.
2. Granting states sole responsibility for the collection of taxes from individual citizens and business except for tariffs.
3. Restrict congress from creating any law or taxes not specifically related to granted authorities as defined by the constitution.
Currently approximately 2/3 of the States are Red States. I believe a 2/3 majority is what would be required to ratify the constitution.
The 16th amendment gave birth to the Federal Government monster and the states are the ONLY entity that can possibly reign in the feds.
If it can be repealed we will have a much better chance of stopping the destruction of America. As part of the act of repeal, congress may not create any law not specifically related to its constitutionally authority.
Now is the time. The polls indicate a very low congressional approval of around 11%? Congress has overstepped its mandate considerably.
Almost half of the state legislatures are considering or have representatives preparing to introduce resolutions which reassert the principles of the 9th and 10th Amendments to the Constitution and the idea that federal power is strictly limited to specific areas detailed in the Constitution and that all other governmental authority rests with the states.
Now is the time. Please contact your state and local representatives and ask them to please consider the above!
going to be hard for zero to manage new england and the west coast with us sitting in the middle.
How does Allied States of America sound??
True enough now....but not necessarily during a prefabricated crisis.
All Obama has to do is create a crisis by passing a very high firearms license/tax. Enough to start a few high profile Lexington Green's part two: Say in Waco or Ruby Ridge or Eldorado or the like.
As soon as people start firing on National Guard or such, well, the Army is going to do their duty to restore order under the constitutional authority of the POTUS whether they agree with him or not.
It's not as simple as just saying the Army are moral, ethical, professionals.
Those positive qualities could perhaps be used jujitsu style.

The sooner the better. The more time the Usurper has, the worse it will be. I wonder how our military will react, obey the Usurper, or will a general have the balls to refuse? (which the constitution says he has to)
The constitution prohibits the military from being used against the people.
That’s why I was wondering who the top generals would obey, the Usurper in chief, or the constitution of the USA?
That time has come again ...
Like I said, Logistics. Logistics and Operations will go very far for us... especially if we can cut his out from under him.
WTF? what was the reason given for that?
This will NOT be CW2 but American Revolution 2. There are way to many of us even in the blue states that are not going for this ...
Where?
I guess zero thinks we practice with live targets??
He’s not a legal President but rather a foreign enemy agent IMO
My state of residence is a write off - Michigan - as we’ve been blown away by a foreign liberal Dem.
“This will NOT be CW2 but American Revolution 2. There are way to many of us even in the blue states that are not going for this ...”
Excellent point - zero is like King George III, not Lincoln.
