Oklahoma Begins Fight for Sovereignty

Oklahoma house passed a resolution in a tug of war with the federal government. The battle is brewing across the country as more states are standing up to the Obama's spend happy administration claiming the feds are over stepping their boundaries (which are laid out in the 10th amendment for those in govt schools, see earlier post). 

"We give all this money to all these different entities, including automakers, and now they’re talking about, ‘Well maybe it’s better to let them go bankrupt,’” Key said. "Well, maybe we should have let them go bankrupt before we gave them the money.” 
I wonder what Obama will say about this one.... something like, "their just clinging to their guns, and following their religion, or racist" as some have accused recent "tea party protesters" of being. The point is here the feds have a very limited amount of responsibilities provided under the constitution, the rest of governing is intended to be at the state level or not at all.
