In Patrick Henry’s immortal “Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Death” speech, he said, “[I]t is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth.” Never have Henry’s words been truer than they are today. For too long, good [...]

No Audit – No Bernancke!
It was the battle cry heard for weeks by the Senate from ‘the Lord only knows’ how many responsible citizens around our Nation that are fed up with the federal reserve’s fractional reserve banking scam. However, the Senate would not actually lead/drive/correct anything because they lack that skill; therefore, they as [...]

The SC senate passed The State Sovereignty Resolution (amended)
Amendment No. 49
Senator MALLOY proposed the following Amendment No. 49 (424R022.GM), which was adopted:

Amend the concurrent resolution, as and if amended, page 2, after line 25, by adding:

/ Whereas, the State recognizes that as an independent sovereign, that the State along with the other states of the union took part in an extensive bargaining process through the adoption of the Constitution and the various amendments thereto, and like any other party to any other agreement, the State is bound to uphold the terms and conditions of that agreement. Through this agreement, the States have collectively created the federal government, limiting the scope of its power and authority, as well as ensuring that certain fundamental rights are guaranteed. Also, through this process the federal judiciary has interpreted the Fourteenth Amendment to limit states' governmental authority by providing that rights and protections afforded to the people as citizens of the United States are also extended to each person as a citizen of an individual state. Pursuant to that interpretation, this State is bound to uphold the principles and protections afforded by the Fourteenth Amendment which guarantees the privileges and immunities of the United States, due process of law, and equal protection under the law; /

Renumber sections to conform.

Amend title to conform.

Senator MALLOY explained the amendment.

The amendment was adopted.


Recorded Vote
Senators CROMER, McCONNELL, VERDIN and SHOOPMAN desired to be recorded as voting against the adoption of the amendment.


Statement by Senator MCCONNELL
I voted against this amendment because I believe that this Resolution needs to be simple and direct -- that the Ninth and Tenth Amendments limit the power and reach of the federal government to those actions specifically enumerated in the Constitution. In other words, this is about states' rights, not federal rights.

This amendment would dilute that message by bringing in the Fourteenth Amendment to the Resolution. That would unnecessarily confuse the issue. Each protection afforded to citizens and enforced on the states by the Fourteenth is already covered by our South Carolina Constitution. Why muddle the message that needs to be clearly heard in Washington, D.C.?

Also, I want this Resolution to be a clear statement that the proposed health care bill violates our State's citizens' rights under the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. Therefore, I oppose the amendment in order to send a loud and clear message to Washington. Our future and our liberty is at stake. We need plain talk -- not academic recitations.

There being no further amendments, the question then was the adoption of the Concurrent Resolution, as amended.

The "ayes" and "nays" were demanded and taken, resulting as follows:

MSM Century Long Supression of Truth – Still Going Strong Today.

The brilliant piece from Bill Whittle of PJTV on how the MSM (Main Stream Media) has suppressed the truth from the folks they sell their spew to for a very long time now. This exposure of the communist/socialist take over of the united States that has been planned out for many years is a wonderful example of the new media.

With the election of a non-”Natural Born Citizen” (he has up to four citizenships) as our President ...

I just called Joe Wilson's DC office about his support of Sen Graham . They are arrogant and out of touch in my opinon. Would not hurt them at all to hear from more of us.(202) 225-2452
