RE:If these laws are allowed to stand without challenge from Eric Holder's Justice Department, then the green light is on for nullifying any federal law -- including ObamaCare.

Interesting. Had not thought of it that way.

One thing overlooked in the uproar surrounding the election is the nullification of federal narcotics law in Washington state and Colorado. If these laws are allowed to stand without challenge from Eric Holder's Justice Department, then the green light is on for nullifying any federal law -- including ObamaCare.

Nullification is based upon the principle that is best described in the words of Thomas Jefferson in the Declaration of Independence:

"Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed..."

One can only hope.

I wanted to take this opportunity to publicly thank ManyMoose for voting for the Wa. marijuana thing, and for stating publicly that he would do so. I appreciate it and believe it is the right thing to do.
Way to go Mr. Moose.
