That 10th amendment sure does come in handy when you need it.

I just read up on Bachmann for the first time. A winner! Don’t forget Darrell Issa, who is almost singlehandedly trying to take down ACORN.

Is the GOP in Congress giving up on this fight? Sounds like they think the Democrats can pass this sucker

Good!
I’m afraid he’s going to get it through somehow, and we need to be planning our resistance NOW.

The Dems can pass it without the GOP. There are a few Dem hold-outs, though, who don’t like it. Emmanuel is going to do a procedural end-run around them.

Obama has no idea what’s coming his way when states invoke their rights.

He will cut off the Fedral Money and they will fall in to Lockstep. They can not print it. He can.
To: silverleaf
I don’t think they have to go to court to invoke the 10th amendment. In theory the SCOTUS is just there to interpret the law not enforce it. Kinda of like when Jeb Bush threatened but did not deliver on a promise with Terry Schiavo to block any law enforcement from going near her. The courts can blather on all day long but at the end of the day are powerless to enforce any law, they have to have the executive branch do that. I remember the law enforcement guys in Tampa saying they did not answer to the Supreme Court of Florida and would do nothing at their bidding.

Then the state cuts off all taxes to the feds. The feds will not win in this.

That 10th amendment sure does come in handy when you need it. So does all the Federal Money that the states eat at the pig troth known as the federal reserve printing presses. I personally think that all this sudden 10th Amendment religion is all hot air until states start refusing federal money.

I wrote my two Senators [WA -D's Murray and Cantwell] and said that if it passes I will do everything in my power to circumvent its provisions.
I also included that I would donate unprecidented amounts [for me] to their opponents if they voted for ObamaCare.

I hear her now and then on a variety of AM, but am new to Bachman as of the last year or two.
She's intelligent, quick and punches back!
To: screaminsunshine
The states can cut off the money they collect for the Federal government.
Just step away and tell them they have to collect it themselves.
To: rintense
Yep, and that’s what would force one side to pause or act aggressively.

If Obama were to send federal troops to a state, he’d be met by the state national guard as well as militia. Federal troops will not fire on their own citizens in this country, trust me. It would have to be Obama’s civilian defense force, and they would get clobbered.
