Upcoming post and some random observations
For some time now I have been working on a lengthy (of course) post on something called the Repeal Amendment. It is one of the dumbest ideas I have seen in a long time. The Repeal Amendment would allow 33 States to repeal or otherwise get rid of just about any federal law (which includes so much more than statutes passed by Congress). As I will explain in the post, the Repeal Amendment obliterates the original intent of the Founding Fathers, would create chaos, and could start the dismantling of our form of government which has been in place for over 220 years.
Now for some random thoughts (which could be the fodder for future posts):
- Anthony Weiner is a complete idiot. His stupidity could cause serious damage that goes way beyond his career.
- Sarah Palin really needs to shut the hell up and go away.
- Same goes for Michele Bachmann.
- Wisconsin Republicans are pathetic.
- This is one of my shortest posts ever. Don't get used to it.

That was a short post. Some of my random thoughts. You must not be a real Texan. A real Southerner, and Texas did fight with the Confederates, would welcome the ability to repeal federal laws they disagree with. Sounds like the Nullification of the early 1800s all over again.
Palin and Weiner were made for each other.
Wisconsin Repubs are my heros. If you're referring to the fight over unions, I was just reading that back leading up to the Civil War the Repubs in one of the states did exactly as the Wisconsin Dems did recently, left the state so a bill couldn't be voted on. An old tactic.
Actually, the Repeal Amendment is not the same as nullification. It's similar, but not really the same. This is a point the supporters of the Repeal Amendment emphasize. I'm not going to address nullification in the post.
Regarding the Wisconsin Repubs, what I am referring to is their admitted plan--which has already been put in motion--to put up fake Dem candidates (as in they are actually Repubs) in the recall elections to force Dems to have a primary election and thus delay the general election and make the real Dem candidates spend more money.
Guess I should have waited for your post. Sounds like the Wisconsin Repubs are as devious as the Dems.
You didn't like my suggestion that Palin needs Weiner.
