  • Re: The 112th Congress - The first Orange-American to be elected Speaker

    So the GOP is going to introduce a Constitutional Amendment that allows states to ignore federal laws. Pretty sure we fought a war about this. They lost. It's time to move on.

      Not that I'm disagreeing with you per se, but what happens when the Federal Government ignores Federal laws??

          Congress and the White House are exempt from the federal laws they pass (go figure) but federal departments have to follow them. I'm sure you can list several examples where they aren't though.

            Oh, those Pauls.

            “With regard to the idea whether or not you have a right to health care you have to realize what that implies. I am a physician. You have a right to come to my house and conscript me. It means you believe in slavery. You are going to enslave not only me but the janitor at my hospital, the person who cleans my office, the assistants, the nurses. … You are basically saying you believe in slavery,” said Paul (R-Ky.), who is an ophthalmologist.

              It won't mean dick unless states have the right to print their own money (which is probably the next GOP amendment).

              Give them credit: this actually is stupider than flag burning. They never disappoint.

              Just kick out the South. Please. Imagine not having to carry that dead weight. Heck, the Czechs and Slovaks split up, and they have a lot more in common than us and Jesusland.

                Just abolish the Constitution and go back to the Articles of Confederation.

                Or when Prince Harry visits this summer ask if we can rejoin England's empire - as long as people can still keep their guns. As part of the militia, you know

                  This actually isn't coming from the South (at least initially) - it's the mormons and the dozen people who actually live in Wyoming.

                    You joke, but.

                    Today, the best legitimate solution to Washington tyranny is the right of nullification as presented so well in Tom Woods’ new book, Nullification. But should this fail, there is another alternative, secession from the Washington Empire and the restoration of state sovereignty and a limited, debt-free central government under America’s first government established by our founding fathers, The Articles of Confederation.

                      I'm cool with keeping Wyoming as a sort of Free Market Theme Park. Also, the west brings something to the table: beautiful scenery. The south brings nothing but beautiful women, who we'll get after secession anyway since they follow the money, and they're not going to want to stay in the Caliphate.

                        Unless they are enslaved, in which case there'd be a need for another underground railroad (they're more than welcome to use my place to escape from the tyrannical southerners).

                                Aren't you married? That nullifies any strategic advantage your residence provides you, does it not (unless of course it's a Clinton style marriage...)?
