Friends, I was honored to be present when the legislature of Cattaraugus County, New York recently passed a resolution affirming its commitment to the U.S. Constitution, declaring that it will be a "constitutional sanctuary" resolutely opposed to the infringement of our sacred rights, and rewriting the county's mission statement in tribute to the principles of limited government and maximum freedom. It was a great pleasure to see the organizing efforts of "We the People", a local, grassroots organization led by the redoubtable Brenda Hanson, bear fruit. It was frankly flabbergasting to see the County Legislature vote unanimously to support the U.S. Constitition, and to lay the groundwork for further acts of resistance to federal/state tyranny. Bravo! Those of you who live in other counties and states should consider following in "We the People's" footsteps...
Dr. Waddy from Jack : Mega dittos on that! I rejoice to live in an area where such official assertion is a faithful expression of the vast majority and is untainted with political correctness. I live in a neighboring county but we are of like mind I am confident. Its great to live in the real America!
ReplyDeleteDr. Waddy from Jack: And many, many kudos to the Right Thinkers who motivated this resolution and who host your informed commentary. See, there are islands of common sense in this still benighted state of NY.
ReplyDeleteThat there are! Jack, is there a movement afoot in your county to pass a similar resolution? Maybe that's a task we Right Thinkers should pursue...
ReplyDeleteWOW, seriously? I had no idea. I will have to look into this, thanks.
ReplyDeleteIt's mostly -- maybe entirely -- symbolic, but it was pretty sweet to be there when it happened...
