#4 More and more states are doing this. In VA and MO its healthcare, in AZ its immigration, in TX its crap and trade (not to mention the myriad states that are backing those I just mentioned). MO also has some really interesting legislation on gun rights. The list goes on and on. At the end of the day, if enough states fight back, what can the feds really do about it?

#6 Seems like Obama and his cronies have started immense pushback in many places. Pursuit of the liberal utopian nightmare by statists is causing people to wake up. The toppling of the house of cards has begun.

#8 The EPA has gone from being completely worthless to a threat to the Republic.

Our founding fathers would shoot them in disgust.

#9 Sounds like the Supreme Court is gonna be very, very busy when all of these disputes between Obama and the states percolate to the top of the judicial system.

#10 A list of the big State bloc issues that are all basically addressing the same problem, an omnipresent and obnoxious federal government treading on the authority of the States.

1) 10th Amendment Resolutions and Bills.
2) Firearms Freedom and ATF Regulations.
3) Medical Marijuana.
4) Health Care Freedom Act.
5) REAL ID.
6) Bring the National Guard Home Act.
7) Constitutional Tender. (Constitutional Tender laws seek to nullify federal legal tender laws by authorizing payment in gold and silver or a paper note backed 100% by gold or silver within States.)
8) Cap and Trade and EPA Regulations.
9) Federal Tax Funds. (Federal taxes first go to the State governments, which then forward a percentage to the federal government for constitutionally authorized expenses.)
10) Sheriffs First. (Federal agents, to make an arrest, search, or seizure within the state, must first get the advance, written permission of the elected county sheriff of the county in which the event is to take place.)
11) Limitations on Interstate Commerce clause.

Projected future blocs.

12) National Health Care Nullification.
13) Patriot Act Nullification.
14) No Child Left Behind Nullification.
15) State Initiated Constitutional Amendment Without Constitutional Convention.
