I'm listening to Glenn Beck ranting about the Progressives...as the Matrix...as the Borg Collective!
Do you think he's reading this blog??
He's also talking about "The Zombies"....but I think I got that one from him.
The subject matter is the Montana/Texas intra-state gun laws. According to Glenn, and he's usually pretty reliable, the Montana law was passed in order to be challenged, and brought to the Supreme Court in order to overturn a previous decision during FDR's "reign", that expanded the scope of the Federal Goverment's right to regulate everybody and everything everywhere under the "commerce" clause, to infinity.
I've talked about the 912 Project, and there is obviously a swelling grassroots TEA PARTY movement. What we haven't had...is a focus that brings us all together working on concert.
This might be it. To get this same gun law passed in every state (okay, alot of states) would not only create a huge distraction for the Matrix...but it would almost force SCOTUS to hear the challenges, and to decide the issue. Beck's sources are suggesting there are likely enough votes on the court to go our way.
What would happen should they overturn the decision that undermined States' Rights, and gave unconstitutional power to the Feds....is the dimunition of Fed power and the advance of States' Rights...in the way the Founders designed...and the Progressives destroyed.
In Utah, there is a legislator who has started the Patrick Henry Caucus, and wants to expand it to the 50 states, that stand up against the Federal intrusion into States' business and their assumption of the States' power.
This is a good thing. I don't know enough about the details...which is why this post is vague and detail free...but it's a potentially exciting development. People everywhere have had at!
And if this works, we'll have TOTUS (Teleprompter of the United States) to thank for it. If he hadn't jerked everyone awake with his outrageous hubris, we might have not noticed while the Zombies in Washington ate us all in our sleep.
More to follow as I get more info. Of course, please feel free to contribute your own...

I hope you don't mind if I share an e-mail I received.
ReplyDeleteGOOD ON YA, OKLAHOMA!
An update from Oklahoma.
The state law passed today, 37 to 9, had a few liberals in the mix, an amendment to place the Ten Commandments on the front entrance to the state capitol. The feds in D.C., along with the ACLU, said it would be a mistake. Hey this is a conservative state, based on Christian values...! Guess what..........We did it anyway.
We recently passed a law in the state to incarcerate all illegal immigrants, and ship them back to where they came from, unless they want to get a green card and become an American citizen. They all scattered. Hope we didn't send any of them to your state. This was against the advice of the Federal Government, and the ACLU, they said it would be a mistake.
Guess what..........we did it anyway..
Yesterday we passed a law to include DNA samples from any and all illegals to the Oklahoma database, for criminal investigative purposes. Pelosi said it was unconstitutional.
Guess what........We did it anyway.
Several weeks ago, we passed a law, declaring Oklahoma as a Sovereign state, not under the Federal Government directives. That, for your information, makes Oklahoma and Texas the only states to do so. Guess what.........More states are likely to follow. Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia, both Carolina's, Tennessee, Kentucky, Missouri, Arkansas, West Virginia, just to name a few. Should Mississippi act, so will Florida. Save your confederate money, it appears the South is about to rise up once again.
The federal Government has made bold steps to take away our guns. Oklahoma, a week ago, passed a law confirming people in this state have the right to bear arms and transport them in their vehicles. I'm sure that was a set back for the Kennedys and Ms Pelosi.
Guess what..........We did it anyway.
By the way, Obama does not like any of this.
Guess what....who cares..we're doing it anyway.
My home state of Mississippi just passed State Sovereignty legislation last night. In the House by an 80-30 vote and the Senate by 25-18.
ReplyDeleteIt's catching on apparently!
I stood up and cheered when I heard these states are doing this
ReplyDeleteThis could be the start of something good.
ReplyDeleteI think the TEA PARTIES—regular people hitting the streets—are resonating with lawmakers who might not have felt they had public support for this sort of thing because it's usually the Liberal Zombies that make all the noise.
Let's keep the momentum going. And all the good noise!
TEA PARTIES are scheduled all over the country on July 4. Help them out... or at least attend.
Yep, I’m thinking similar thoughts too.
ReplyDeleteI’ve been giving the ‘what next’ after the Tea Parties issue a lot of thought too … no conclusions yet… but it seems like any effective actions have to start on the state level… where they were first lost. And the Montana bill that if the gun and ammo were produced in state, the Fed’s would not be recognized as having any say whatsoever – that is a biggee. If that stands, what it’ll do to the distortions made or enabled, by the SCOTUS to the ‘Commerce Clause’, will be HUGE… nearly every intrusion the Federal Govt has gotten away with, rests directly on, or derives from the dis-interpretation of the commerce clause.
Who knows, given enough momentum (dreaming big here), maybe the 17th amendment could be repealed, putting the Senate back to being elected and beholden to the State legislatures, rather than the evening news. It was put across as one of the first ‘campaign finance’ anti-corruption measures,
“…After the turn of the century, momentum for reform grew rapidly. William Randolph Hearst expanded his publishing empire with Cosmopolitan, and championed the cause of direct election with muckraking articles and strong advocacy of reform. Hearst hired a veteran reporter, David Graham Phillips, who wrote scathing pieces on senators, portraying them as pawns of industrialists and financiers. The pieces became a series titled "The Treason of the Senate," which appeared in several monthly issues of the magazine in 1906. These articles galvanized the public into maintaining pressure on the Senate for reform...”
, why not undo it along similar tactics, this time using Tea Parties & the Blogosphere in place of the MSM, as was done with prohibition?
Accomplish that… and the Fed Gov’t would pretty much be rolled back into its constitutional cell.
Dare to dream.
(BTW, regarding Glen Beck, I can’t tell you how good it’s been to hear someone actually come out and say that Teddy Roosevelt wasn’t a good thing for America, not as President anyway – I’d lay odds that every affront to the constitution, every misuse of power, could find it or its parent, in some policy TR either passed, or legitimized by attempting to pass it. Wilson, Hoover and FDR did nothing but capitalize on his inroads.)
