\nGov. Rick Perry, R-TX, today<\/a>:\n<\/p>\n

\nAustin \u2014 Gov. Rick Perry today in a precautionary measure requested the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) provide 37,430 courses of antiviral medications from the Strategic National Stockpile to Texas to prevent the spread of swine flu. Currently, three cases of swine flu have been confirmed in Texas.\n<\/p>\n

\nGov. Rick Perry, R-TX, two weeks ago<\/a>:\n<\/p>\n

\nAUSTIN \u2013 Gov. Rick Perry today joined state Rep. Brandon Creighton and sponsors of House Concurrent Resolution (HCR) 50 in support of states\u2019 rights under the 10th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.\n<\/p>\n

\nPartial text<\/a> of HCR-50:\n<\/p>\n

\nRESOLVED, That the 81st Legislature of the State of Texas
\n
\thereby claim sovereignty under the Tenth Amendment to the
\n
\tConstitution of the United States over all powers not otherwise
\n
\tenumerated and granted to the federal government by the
\n
\tConstitution of the United States; and, be it further
\n
\t RESOLVED, That this serve as notice and demand to the federal
\n
\tgovernment, as our agent, to cease and desist, effective
\n
\timmediately, mandates that are beyond the scope of these
\n
\tconstitutionally delegated powers;\n<\/p>\n

\nI don’t see anything about the Centers for Disease Control in the Constitution; therefore, I believe the federal government is officially within its obligations and duties to tell Rick Perry to shit in his ten-gallon hat and screw it on tight.\n<\/p>\n

\nI’m entirely serious. There are a bunch of people out running their mouths about crap like “socialism” and “fascism” and “USSA” and “losing the republic” and yes, secession. At some point, if we don’t make Bubba* eat his words, he’s going to think he can make another go of it just like ’61. Hopefully, this President will be less like Eisenhower and Kennedy and more like Lincoln…and show some sack. Besides, as I never tire of pointing out, this time the Feds have got the hydrogen bomb.\n<\/p>\n

\n* “Bubba” hereafter to be used as the equivalent of “Fritz” in WWII or “Charlie” in Vietnam. If we’re going to have a second Civil War, it’s not too early to be working on slang.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
