#1 Interesting trivia I suppose, but I'd rather he spend his time holding Republicans (Collins and Spector) together in the Senate as John Boehner did in the House.

#5 Recently, I saw a short piece about the New Hampshire legislature debating a bill that would back hand the federal government in the face (see here). Now, there appears to be some others and I am not sure what all this means...but there is something bubbling under the surface. Perhaps one of these states has 'heard' something disconcerting or seen language in some proposed federal bailout of the states. Whatever it is, it is significant enough for them to fire a warning shot directly across the bow of the USS Obama.

This is from the NH legislation:

"....That any Act by the Congress of the United States, Executive Order of the President of the United States of America or Judicial Order by the Judicatories of the United States of America which assumes a power not delegated to the government of United States of America by the Constitution for the United States of America and which serves to diminish the liberty of the any of the several States or their citizens shall constitute a nullification of the Constitution for the United States of America by the government of the United States of America."[emphasis added]

Ouch! That's gonna leave a mark.

And this is from a trusted website I use to keep informed:

This week, various state legislatures introduced bills intended to revive one of the most important gifts left to us by our forefathers…state sovereignty.

No, you won’t hear about this on CNBC or Fox News. In fact, we just got word of it a few hours ago. All the way from Hawaii to New Hampshire…Georgia and California, nine states have so far introduced bills that would reaffirm state sovereignty as laid out in the ninth and tenth amendments to the constitution.

Now – like I said – we just heard about this news ourselves. And we haven’t had enough time to really decide what it all means…but there is some strong wording in a few of these bills, to say the very least…

From Arizona’s bill, “…if the President or any other federal entity attempts to institute martial law or its equivalent without an official declaration in one or more of the states without the consent of that state … individual members of the military return to their respective states and report to the Governor until a new President is elected…” [emphasis added]
