"Without the right to secede, states rights are meaningless"
that's from his yesterday's myspace blog.
as always Ron Paul is right.
Why is "state rights" important?

A bit of an overstatement, but I see his point, I suppose.
ACtually I think the thing which gives the FEDS so much power is really its ability to levy personal income taxes and the ability to DRAFT men into the service.
I don't play a lawyer on the internet so I don't even pretend to have an opinion about the 10th amendment or the states RIGHT to secede, either.
But if the FEDS depending, as it once did, almost SOLELY on TARIFFS for its budget, it wouldn't have nearly so much more power than the states have.
But hey, I realize most of you folks believe that FREE TRADE is a good thing because you think it's an example of that freedom of the individual myth that you cling to.
Ironic isn't it?
So many people who truly do want to limit the power of the central government also support the laws that makes FEDERAL income taxation of the individual an absolute necessitysince mostly the same people ALSO want to have a STRONG national military force.

Dr. Paul is right on many things but in this instance he is DEAD wrong. Maybe he should personally payback the $22 million he took in pork last year (more than any other of the other Republican Congressman that ran in the Republican primary). That is federal money Dr. Paul, so give it back today!
The US is a Republic of dependent States, not independent states forming a EU type partnership! Sorry Paulie, but your State gave up its right to independence when it joined the Union!

Once a State joins the Union it cannot Succeed, so the argument is moot. Didn't we already have the bloodiest war in US history settling this debate!
The funny thing is that State's still have a gigantic amount of freedom and autonomy! People alway scream about State rights when the party in power is different than there's. Ricky "Bobbie" Perry didn't complain when Bush did nothing about the corporate tax or the border. He only carries now! Not only does the 10th amendment (come 2nd to the constitution) put an exact limitation on State power, but so does the supremacy clause (Article IV Section 2). Both were part of the original constitution!
If Republicans complained back in the Bush days about Leftist traitors and self-haters, then they better give that back to rightest traitors and self-haters.

Nonsense. And he knows better. It is not like Paul is unaware of the US Constitution and our other foundation documents. The quote could have been taken out of context.

You're absolutely incorrect. The United States is a confederation of independent states.

you are idiots aren't you? when i was 7 years old i couldn't believe people can be as fucking dumb as you. and i still can't believe it.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS FEDERAL MONEY !
ITS ONLY STATE MONEY THAT HAS BEEN STOLEN FROM STATES !
FUCKTARDS !
Ron Paul and Perry are merely taking THEIR OWN money back.
and to answer your question - NO, Texas didn't need to be protected from Iraq.

Wait are you the stroker who also says the Civil War shouldn't have been fought? LOL, forget human rights, incorrect interpretations of the constitution is all that matters!

I notice you did not provide a quote from the Constitution that actually states secession is prohibited to the states. That would be because there is no such prohibition in the Constitution.
Yes, I guess I am the "stroker" who says the Civil War should not have been fought, though I'm certainly not the only one.

Maybe Ron Paul will follow Spector's lead and join the Dems. He should. Maybe they would listen to him. We know for sure the GOP will not. Remember he won the debates and they banned him from all debates from that point moving forward?
At least he should go Libertarian.

See, most of you libertarian types go too far with some of your ideas/enterpretations of the constitution.
Just like there are some things about us liberals you will never understand or like.
But I like you Kevin. I like your position on the Federal Reserve. I wonder how many people you have informed? Me, a lot. But they don't give a shit. That's why nothing will be done. The politicians would do what we ask if we all called them like they were trying to sell a port to Dubia. Remember that? We flooded their offices with calls.
No outrage means no solution. Its gotten me mad so I have sort of given up for the moment.
I don't play a lawyer on the internet so I don't even pretend to have an opinion about the 10th amendment or the states RIGHT to secede, either.
