In the first five weeks of his presidency, Barack Obama has acted so rashly that at least 11 states have decided that his brand of “hope” equates to an intolerable expansion of the federal government’s authority over the states. These states -- Washington, New Hampshire, Arizona, Montana, Michigan, Missouri, Oklahoma, California, Georgia, South Carolina, and Texas

WOW! This is obviously not Change these states can believe in!

Surprising......Is Jim Clyburn going to accuse all of them of racism?

This is great news...BUT:

Has anyone seen anything on MSM about this yet? I mean more than an insignificant blurb on pg. A-23 in the newspaper?

No one is taking these things seriously — yet. President Obama is likely scoffing at those few states that are rejecting the stimulus. Right now, he’s fine with sending it to other states or tucking it away for another day. And, don’t think those states won’t be “punished” should it come down to other, more “normative” spending programs, etc...

Those who favor State Sovereignty and the restoration of the Constitution had better get organized and loud — VERY LOUD — in short order. Resistnet.com, the “Tea-Party” ideas, becoming a pain in the butt to your Senators and Representatives with cards, emails and calls, demonstrations and protests — and it better be organized and PEACEFUL — but OVERWHELMING.

THey can’t shut-up, jail or kill a couple of million people — but a few thousand are easy to get rid of...They are soon forgotten (Ask Al-Queda, this strategy worked for them on 9/11 — at least among Liberals).

This is excellent news but what are states next steps when Obambi continues to ignore state sovereignty?

Vice President John C. Calhoun resigned the Vice Presidency to lead his home state of South Carolina in pursuit of an “ordinance of nullification,” which was no less a declaration of the sovereignty of each individual state within the union than the declarations now being made.

Gee I wonder if Biden will do the same if Delaware declares its states rights?

I don’t think any of these states will reject the stimulus money, they are passing these resolutions because they don’t want the strings that are attached to the money.

Minnesota made a resolution? Really? I know for a fact that it’s taking the ‘stimulus’ money! This doesn’t add up.

FYI- The original article at Human Events says "have all introduced bills and resolutions" rather than "have passed resolutions."

How long before we see the flying of the original states rights flag, the Bonnie Blue Flag? It predated the Civil War as was flown as a declaration of the Sovernty of the States befor the outbreak of war.

Keep in mind that if you ever accept the king’s shilling, you become the king’s man. The banks which accepted TARP funds are now getting to see the ex post facto effects: government control over their operations. And the German Phrase made famous by the 1st Special Service Force: “Die dicke ende comm noch” (the worst is yet to come!)

I’m thinking that this is a legal way for the States to indicate to the Team-Obama that they are aware of what he is doing and they don’t like it one bit. ALSO, it’s a knock on the noggin to Senators and Representatives AND Jurists, that they might want to read that old document, the Constitution and the ‘several’ Amendments and study up on them.
