Subject: RE: BS: Republican response to Health Reform
Funny thing about the new 'n improved Reoub strategy is that it takes US back to arguments that were used by Southern states some 180 years ago about states rights... If you listen to folks like Virginia's Attorney General, Cuncinilli he would have you believe that states have the rights to ignore any federal law that they want to???

Ummmmmmm, not to get too specfic here but isn't that what the Civil War was fought over???

This is what I was talkin' about on another thread... The Supremes are going to find themselves ina major pickle here... That say, on one hand, that states cannot have their own gun control laws or limit corporations form unlimited spending on campaigns becuase federal law trumps state law... Now you have all these states with Repub governors lining up to make arguments that werde part of the 1830s... That's right... The 1830s!!!

Oughtta be interesting...
