Tenth Amendment Summit in Atlanta

No matter what side of the political aisle you sit on, the federal government is not your friend. It's not a friend to the Constitution, and it's certainly no friend to your liberty. For years and years...and years, people have yelled "vote the bums out!" "Call Congress now!" "March on DC!" But, in the long run, little to none of this actually works.

If you oppose this national health care plan, they'll give you that one. If you oppose one war, you'll get another one. If you oppose today's bailout, they'll find a different one tomorrow. Decade in and decade out, the government keeps growing, and your liberty keeps shrinking. And it doesn't matter if the person in charge is named Obama, or Bush, or Reagan, or Clinton.

The bottom line? Looking to the federal government – whether it's though elections, or protests, or lawsuits, or rallies – is a failed strategy. So how about trying something new?

I assume you and most of Elk County will be going? At least you'll be throwing some money into Atlanta's economy.
