“For states' rights advocates, the Constitution is like a contract that is openly violated by one party with impunity. On paper, the states remain sovereign powers, while in reality the federal government appears able to dictate everything from the ingredients of school lunches to speed limits. Congress now routinely collects taxes in order to return the money to the states with conditions on their conforming to federal demands.” StatesRealityGovernmentAbleSchoolPoliticalOrderPartyRightsConditionsReturnDemandLimitsTaxesPaperConstitutionCongressSpeedIngredientsContractsLunchSovereignConformFederal GovernmentImpunityStates RightsSpeed LimitsSchool Lunch Author:Jonathan Turley
“When the doctrine of allegiance to party can utterly up-end a man's moral constitution and make a temporary fool of him besides, what excuse are you going to offer for preaching it, teaching it, extending it, perpetuating it? Shall you say, the best good of the country demands allegiance to party? Shall you also say it demands that a man kick his truth and his conscience into the gutter, and become a mouthing lunatic, besides?” MenEndsCountryPoliticalPoliticsPartyMoralTeachingFoolPoliticianOffersDemandConscienceConstitutionExcuseDoctrineKicksTemporaryPreachingAllegianceLunaticExtendingGuttersPerpetuating Author:Mark Twain
