I just sent off an email to about 20 or so VA delegates to support the resolution that is being considered by yet another delegate in the VA house.

I would be surprised if Virginny doesn't get a resolution at least submitted pretty soon. It's when the voting begins the fun starts.

Tennessee actually has a couple of resolutions that have been presented, HJR 0104 and HJR 0108. BOTH apparently waiting to be introduced. Give those folks a shoutout with some words of support and encouragement.

Someone needs to put together a map, maybe red & blue (or blue & gray), showing the states that are actively pursuin 10th amendment resolutions. I would, but I don’t have that kind of talent.

The "chatter" around the web is it's a matter of time for them to take on something like this. Haley Barbour is likely to produce something very interesting, since it appears they're taking their time. They did get their gun owners covered though:

Now there's a thought. A quick and dirty reference would be nice. I've sortof got my hands full but might take a crack at it in a day or two myself. I'm thinking the no-gos will be a fluorescent pink and the ones in various stages of working on something, shades of blue...

My friend sent this to me~ Enjoy!

Separation/Divorce notice

Dear American liberals, leftists, social progressives, socialists, Marxists, Obama supporters, et al:

We have stuck together since the late 1950’s, but the whole of this latest election process has made me realize that I want a divorce. I know, we tolerated each other for many years for the sake of future generations, but, sadly, this relationship has run its course. Our two ideological sides of America cannot, and will not ever agree on what is right, so let’s just end it on friendly terms. We can smile, chalk it up to irreconcilable differences, and go our own way.

Here is a model separation agreement:

Our two groups can equitably divide up the country by landmass each taking a portion. That will be the difficult part, but I am sure our two sides can come to a friendly agreement. After that it should be relatively easy! Our respective representatives can effortlessly divide other assets since both sides have such distinct and disparate tastes. We don’t like redistributive taxes so you can keep them. You are welcome to the liberal judges and the ACLU.

Since you hate guns and war, we’ll take our firearms, the cops, the NRA, and the military. You can keep Oprah, Michael Moore, and Rosie O’Donnell. We’ll keep the capitalism, greedy corporations, pharmaceutical companies, Wal-Mart, and Wall Street. You can have your beloved homeless, homeboys, hippies, and illegal aliens. We’ll keep the hot Alaskan hockey moms, greedy CEO’s, and rednecks. We’ll keep the Bibles and give you NBC and Hollywood . You can make nice with Iran and Palestine and we’ll retain the right to invade and hammer places that threaten us. You can have the peaceniks, and war protesters. When our allies or our way of life are under assault, we will help to provide security to them.

We’ll keep our Judeo-Christian values. You are welcome to Islam, Scientology, Humanism, and Shirley McClain. You can also have the U.N. But we will no longer be paying the bill. Knowing your concerns about “excess population”, in your part of the country you can overcome the problem of excess population through gay marriages and choosing to kill the unborn.

We’ll keep the cattle since you don’t like beef anyway. We’ll keep the SUVs, pickup trucks, and oversized luxury cars. You can take every Subaru station wagon and ethanol vehicle you can find. You can give everyone healthcare, if you can find any practicing doctors. We’ll continue to believe healthcare is a luxury and not a right. We’ll keep The Battle Hymn of the Republic and the National Anthem. I’m sure you’ll be happy to substitute Imagine, I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing, Kumbaya, or We Are the World. We’ll practice trickle down economics, and you can give trickle up poverty your best shot. Since it often so offends you, we’ll keep our history, our name, and our flag.

Would you agree to this? If so please pass it along to other like minded liberal and conservative patriots, and if you do not agree, just hit delete. In the spirit of friendly parting, I’ll bet you ANWAR which one of us will need whose help in 15 years.

Sincerely,

John J. Wall
Law Student and an American

P.S. Also, please take Barbara Streisand, Susan Sarandon & Jane Fonda

Ripped graphic, from all places, DU (they're freaking):

Can't be sure how accurate it is. But looks good.

I think the fight has momentum this time. It’ll be interesting to see what ‘Bama does in response. Can’t wait to see him cut off Federal funds to states that protest the unfunded mandates.

Then we cut off income tax collections (and payments) to pay for those mandates. If we chose to accept the mandates, of course. Easy.

As splendid as all this "Fighting Tenth" stuff sounds, let's see what happens when some state draws the line in the sand and says NO! Then it gets interesting.

This is the first I have heard anything about this.

I think it is fantastic!!

Would you happen to know which other states are in on this, too? I live in NJ so it is not like our press is gung-ho to report stuff like this.

:) thanks.

It was started by democrats as an insult to Bush but they screwed up and accidently started a good thing without realizing it.
