This competition for your tax dollars is yet another way sovereignty is lost, the Constitution is usurped, and people fall in line. Making it a ‘competition’ stirs our human tendency toward cheering for winners and lambasting losers while onlookers do not question why states are participating

Eric Holder, along with the rest of the DC establishment, believes that the 10th Amendment and Constitutional limits on federal power are little more than a minor nuisance to their supremacy in all things.

The existence of an ideologically controlled one-party type apparatus within the Federal science and educational establishment is the classically predicted effect when a government dispenses funds, controls individual careers, and thereby controls ideas.

America once was unique in all the history of the world. Its essence was having an abundance of something rarely found in other countries: freedom from government.

Freedom is not outdated, federal government is an agreement among the people of different sovereign states, the 10th Amendment has never been repealed, and virtue is still necessary for securing our posterity’s future rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

It is up to the States and the People to start correcting both parties’ abuses in order to reestablish the freedom that should be our childrens’ heritage.

Those who are mystified by the political concept called “interposition” can find a very compelling tutorial in a vignette from Larry McMurtry’s novel Lonesome Dove.

e know that our founders studied the works of Blackstone, John Locke, Montesquieu, and Cicero and very much believed in Natural Law. The Declaration and Constitution are filled with Natural Law precepts like unalienable rights and separation of powers.
