      <![CDATA[Odd that we've heard nothing from the sovereignty movement about this important victory for states' rights delivered by the Obama administration. <br>
<br>
Of course, it's not odd, because the "sovereignty movement" is by and large the same reactionary response to social movements that have promised and delivered freedom and equality.

      <![CDATA[Is there a salient point buried in here? The author applies labels as though they are rigid, precise, well-defined and interchangeable across centuries and the wide ideological swaths cut by the two major political parties...as if there's some sort of single drummer that each of two sides is supposed to march to.

      <![CDATA[In reply to Mr. Delgado’s comment of no democratic tradition of States Rights and that States Rights has never been divorced from efforts to maintain white supremacy, I do not think that this is the true history of States Rights, i.e., only a political device for racial dominance. But, let us suppose for a moment that he is correct.

      <![CDATA[Notwithstanding the comment by Theo and others of an obvious Democrap or unbridled, deuces-are-wild libertarian bias, States Rights is not only not outmoded, but it is essential for the protection of individual liberty and maximizing the potential opportunities for choices to achieve same. In this regard, Ayn Rand’s comment about the bigger the government, the bigger the chopper to chop off your head comes readily to mind.

      <![CDATA[I believe the ultimate point here is that the political party system fails repeatedly at protecting the rights of ALL Americans because they are usually focused on protecting the rights of SOME Americans. When political parties first arose after the ratification of the Constitution, George Washington warned that they could be the downfall of our nation.

States rights was a 18th century concept that was a compromise for the colonies whose governors wanted more autonomy and political power.

      <![CDATA[<br>
    Thank you to all elected officials and true patriots who support the 10th amendment and the true intentions of our Constitution. The reason we have so many problems today is because we have allowed our Federal government to become too large and dictate, thats right dictate, the way we live our own lives.

      <![CDATA[What about conservatives (thought not libertarians) who read the 9th amendment ("The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people") out of existence? That's the right that protects individuals from government overreaching into rights of privacy and personal autonomy.<br>
    <br>
    When conservatives worry as much about the government interfering with my personal autonomy as they do about the federal government interfering with the states' governments, I might have some sympathy with their argument.<br>
    <br>
    BTW, where were the conservatives when the Bush administration was interfering with the states' rights to allow their citizens to use medicinal marijuana?
