GA State Representative Calls For War Against US Government

By Jeff, on November 11th, 2009%

As I was checking Facebook before heading out to work, I came across the status in the screen grab after the jump from State Representative Bobby Franklin (R-Marietta).

In it, he states “As we remember our veterans today, let’s hope that someday soon maybe perhaps some will be willing to pay the ultimate price for freedom here at home.” (emphasis mine)

This is a CLEAR call for Civil War – soon – from a sitting member of the Georgia General Assembly!!!!

Of course, he is also a complete moonbat whackjob that no one in power listens to, and very few not in power listen to.

And he is EXTREMELY closely associated with “States’ Rights” Governor Candidate Ray McBerry – indeed, he is the sponsor for those 10 States’ Rights bills McBerry is so proud of!

I will update this story later tonight with more details and thoughts.

These Representatives Got Balls

By Jeff, on February 15th, 2009%

I saw something while working on this post for Georgia Legislative Watch that caught my eye.

It was known as HR 280, and its title was “Claim sovereignty under Tenth Amendment of Constitution over certain powers; serve notice to federal government to cease and desist”.

Basically, this Resolution says that the 10th Amendment to the US Constitution declared that any power not specifically vested in the National government via the Constitution was reserved to the States. The National government was created to be an agent of the States, yet now treats the States as agents of the National government. Many National decisions are direct violations of the 10th Amendment, and SCOTUS ruled in 1992 that the US Congress can not simply override the legislative and regulatory processes of the States. Finally, there is a lot of stuff going on right now in Washington that if done as proposed would further violate the 10th Amendment.
