You should really read the ANTIfederalist papers. I would highly—HIGHLY-—recommend Antifederalist papers #78-81, on judicial power, #32, on implied powers, and #39, on pretend federalism vs actual federalism. Sad that there seem to be so few conservatives familiar with these great essays. I get so tired of hearing commentators praise the Federalist papers, when in fact almost everything they promised turned out to be not so.

When you compare Madison and Hamilton’s essays to the antifed essays I mentioned, you’ll see right away who was right and who was wrong.

Every single thing the Anti's warned us about has come to pass and more.

Every single thing.

Hamilton was not a patriot. He wished for an authoritarian State.

WEPIN Store.com is still in business? Amazing. I remember downloading the complete site back around 97 or so.

Claire has moderated quite a bit lately. Become more of a community oriented activist than an outright revolutionary.

I remember I was deeply honored when she published one of my pieces on her website.
