With all the talk about the President's speech on Afghanistan, it seems that most people are avoiding - or maybe just forgetting - the essential issue. That is, the Constitution.

James Madison: "Of all the enemies to public liberty war is, perhaps, the most to be dreaded, because it comprises and develops the germ of every other. War is the parent of armies; from these proceed debts and taxes; and armies, and debts, and taxes are the known instruments for bringing the many under the domination of the few."
Today is the 215th day the GOP has failed to repeal Obamacare. But while Republicans in Congress and the president point fingers and play the blame game for not keeping their promise, states continue to take steps to undermine the unconstitutional federal healthcare system. In this week’s episode of Tenther Tuesday, Michael Boldin and Mike Maharrey talk about state efforts nullify federal healthcare schemes and undercut federal asset forfeiture programs. They also go off script a bit and discuss more generally the importance of political decentralization.
"All the states should recognize that the power lies with the states. The states created the federal government. The federal government did not create the states."

"How often have you seen something going on in your community and thought, “Somebody needs to do something?” Maybe you even thought, “I should do something.” But then it hits you. “I have no idea what to do.” So, you go on with life and the problem never gets addressed.
I was recently confronted with an issue in my own neighborhood, and I went through that exact thought process. But I realized I couldn’t stop at, “I have no idea what to do.” So, I decided was just going to ha...ve to figure it out.
This podcast will tell the story -the ups and the downs – the good, the bad and the ugly.
The fun part is I have no idea how the story will end. I’m recording the episodes as I go. Hopefully, when all is said and done, we will have developed a solid blueprint highlighting practical steps you can take to do activism in your own community. And since this is an as-you-go process, you’ll get to learn from my mistakes, as well as my successes.
I am addressing a specific political issue in a specific place. But my goal with the podcast is to explain our strategy in a way that can be generalized it to other issues in other localities."

That's right. Happy birthday, Ron Paul
To stop federal acts, James Madison recommended a “refusal to cooperate with officers of the Union.” Over 170 years of supreme court precedent supports this strategy too.
Known as the “anti-commandeering doctrine,” in four major cases dating back to 1842, the Supreme Court has held that the federal government cannot require states to use personnel or resources to help the federal government carry out its acts or regulatory programs.

Supporters of the monster state want you to believe the feds can do just about anything they want under the commerce clause.
They couldn’t be more wrong.

A "right" is not a right when you need a government permission slip.
James Madison's advice was written in a time when the federal government did very little. Today, when the federal government is active in nearly all areas of life, his blueprint will have far more impact and success than it did in his day.

Some people are really confused...
"In the American system no government is sovereign, not the federal government and not the states. The peoples of the states are the sovereigns."
