President Bush’s tyrannies sparked State Soverignty movements that only are increasing under the further oppressions of President Obama.
28 states now have introduced legislation asserting state sovereignty “partly in response to the conditions” under the Bush-Obama “stimulus” bills that vastly increased the tyranny of the central regime in Washington, according to The Christian Science Monitor. Four of the resolutions have passed, in Idaho, South Dakota, Oklahoma, and South Carolina. Two have been rejected, in New Hampshire and Arkansas. 22 are still pending.
This isn’t just a bunch of Southerners still sore about losing the Civil War. Most of the states are in the North and West. Here’s a map:
Americans are starting to remember that our country was born in revolt against the British tyranny of 1776. Today, the Washington, D.C. tyranny is much greater than King George III ever could have imagined.
Taxes now are half of our incomes, and going higher. Mutitudinous federal security agencies — NSA, FBI, CIA, DHS, etc. — spy, coerce, and jail us. Massive bureaucracies control every minute portion of our lives. And now, the feds have taken over the banking, insurance, and auto industries. America rsembles less the free country of 1789 than the Soviet Union of 1939.
So far, there isn’t such a movement in California’s Legislature. But someone ought to start one.
The emerging blue states on this map will no doubt reflect the “red” states that went for the Big Government Puppet & Republican – George Bush II in 2004. Oh the painful irony!
*What did they say? “Save your Confederate money, cause the South is going rise again!”
We will wait patiently!
This is one of the stupidest post I’ve ever read. Are you really saying that tyranny from DC is worse than that of King George’s? We have taxation with representation you knuckle-dragger. LOL and bureaucracies control your life? Go back to making your tinfoil hats!

Oh please, let these states REFUSE the money, in fact they should refuse ALL federal dollars, oh wait, most of them they RELY on federal handouts to stay solvent because they’re DEBTOR STATES. As usual, just so much B.S. from J.S..
I think the tax under King George was like 5% when it was considered “Tyranical”. Now I pay over 50% of my income in taxes. Federal Income, State Income, Social Security, Medicare, Properety, Unemployment, Sales, Gas,Utility Telephone, ….I may be willing to go back to no representation if it means I can go back to a 5% tax rate.
Bigmarkrod,
Did you consider what 5% bought you then?
Did you have Social Security, Medicare, Property, Unemployment Gas, Utility, and Telephone benefits under King George?
Do you realize that Social Security, Medicare, Property, Unemployment Gas, Utility, and Telephone are *not* an Obama thingy?
Bigmarkrod,
Under King George and till past Lincoln one could own other humans as property.
Do you wish that such was the norm again?
‘BOUT TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!
america could do better divided so washington cant meddle any more at the state level.we would have more freedom and representation at the local level where it counts! not across the country where as anybody ther really cares about the little people here
This should send a strong message to Obama that we will not sit idly by while he tries to take control of our states.
California passed a resolution declaring sovereignty back in 1994. Senate Joint Resolution 44.
