I have one simple question? Why aren't these people storming their capitol in Sacramento, demanding that the state tell the Federal Gov't to mind their own business? Where is their state sovereignty as outlined under The Constitution. We know their governor is a coward. Are the people also cowards? If you wish to discuss this with me I can be reached at 210.681.0673.
Ben, They have, and the rally will end up in Fresno, but in the meantime they need our help. I've been on the phone with Senators offices all day telling them pretty much what you just said w/regard to the healthcare bill. H

Ben is right that states have sovereignty. However, Feds have powers to withhold federal moneys. Ca can't aford being cut off from feds funds. The farmers have been protesting vogorously. Sean Hannity even spent one full hour of his Fox program from on site in the san Joaquin valley. But a tiny fish is in danger. To the left, the fish is more important than people.
Dave, You're right, but it may help the farmers if we add our voices to theirs. We do need to educate people about states rights - the federal government has no legal right to do most of what they do, and we need to take back the power and OUR money at the state level. H
Bemus Glenn Jackson, the commentor above, died in August of 2010. The man was a saint and a constitutional patriot. Could we by any chance preserve this page in archives for posterity? I am collecting all memoirs.
