What good does it do to be a “United States” when we are everything but united and as Justice Scalia wrote in his dissent: “If securing its territory in this fashion is not within the power of Arizona, we should cease referring to it as a sovereign State.”

I would add that if the federal government is not going to protect the states, and the states are not permitted to do so, then the states are no longer sovereign and should be dissolved. At which point, the Constitution is invalidated and revolution begins anew.

I agree. Hmmm, since we can now choose which laws we like and don’t like, maybe Arizona could toss out the minimum wage law, or just ignore it because it is the “right thing to do” in their opinion.

Are you joking?!

Folks in the U.S. have never lived under dictatorship or complete economic collapse. Personal, individual integrity is missing in this nation, and God’s grace appears to have been withdrawn from us. The result will be war and devastation, and not just between groups inside the country, but attacks against us from outside our boundary.

Inidviduals are responsible for their government’s actions. What I see is not enough people being involved with their government, truly becoming active and instead expecting others to bail the nation out of its problems. We, every U.S. citizen, is responsible for our government and what it does.

We are exceptional among nations because we have a political system that allows for an internal revolution every few years. It is called “an election”.

So let’s do it. Go to Tampa in August and throw Romney out, put in a real Conservative. It can be done.
