PhotoI posted last week about how "the "Birthers-Birchers-Secessionists" Tea-Publican insurrectionists put secession from the United States on the November ballot.

The House passed HCR 2004 on a 38-20 vote, sending the resolution to the Secretary of State. The resolution refers to the ballot a constitutional amendment declaring state sovereignty over lands, air, water, minerals, wildlife and the state's other natural resources based on the argument of "equal footing."

So this November Arizonans will suffer the national embarrassment of having to vote on whether to secede from the United States. Of course, it is unconstitutional and entirely unenforceable.

I asked you to contact Governor Brewer and tell her to veto a companion bill, SB 1332, and on Monday she did. Ariz. gov. vetoes bill that demanded federal lands:

Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer vetoed legislation Monday that would have had the state join Utah in demanding that the federal government surrender control of millions of acres of public land.

Supporters of the Arizona bill acknowledged during legislative debate that there was little chance that Washington would actually surrender any land to the state.

"I am concerned about the lack of certainty this legislation could create for individuals holding existing leases on federal lands," Brewer said in a statement. "Given the difficult economic times, I do not believe this is the time to add to that uncertainty."

So the job is now half done. As I posted previously, The Confederate State of Arizona to vote on secession from the U.S. in November:

Voters should reject this unconstitutional and un-American ballot measure, but more importantly, voters should throw out of office every one of the treasonous Neoconfederate Tea-Publican insurrectionists who violated their oath of office and voted in favor of secession from the United States. Here are the traitors names:

House Vote

Cecil Ash, Brenda Barton, Kate Brophy McGee, Heather Carter, Steve Court, Chester Crandall, Jeff Dial, Karen Fann, Eddie Farnsworth, John Fillmore, Tom Forese, Doris Goodale, David Gowan, Rick Gray, Jack Harper, Russ Jones, Peggy Judd, John Kavanagh, Debbie Lesko, Phil Lovas, Nancy McCain, J.D.Mesnard, Steve Montenegro, Justin Olson, Justin Pierce, Frank Pratt, Bob Robson, Carl Seel,  David Burnell Smith, David Stevens, Michelle Ugenti, Steve Uri, Ted Vogt, Jim Weiers, Jerry Weiers, Vic Williams, Kimberly Yee, Andy Tobin.

Never again should the modern-day Tea-Publican Party be allowed to call itself "the party of Lincoln." Lincoln is rolling over in his grave at this act of insurrection against the United States.

  1. At least 618,000 Americans died in the Civil War, and some experts say the toll reached 700,000. http://www.civilwarhome.com/casualties.htm The rejection of secession and preservation of the Union was paid for in American blood.

    The Reconstruction Amendments, including the 14th Amendment, clause 1 “No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States;” rejected the Nullification theory that led, in part, to the Civil War. And Clause 3:

    “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.”

    All of this was to reaffirm the Supremacy Clause of the U.S. Constitution, Article VI, Section 2, of the U.S. Constitution: the “Constitution, and the Laws of the United States … shall be the supreme Law of the Land.” It means that the federal government, in exercising any of the powers enumerated in the Constitution, must prevail over any conflicting or inconsistent state exercise of power.

    Give it up Johnny Reb. The war is over.

  2. Where in the US Constitution does it say secession in illegal? Study US history. We seceded from the UK making secession as American as apple pie.

  3. Isn’t this the baby of that GI Hack Dranias? I think some people tried to explain to him once that air is not contained within state boundaries but he was too dumb to understand.
