but refuse to recognize it when discussing individual US states and the Tenth Amendment?

Should Texas name itself "West Iran" to get some credit from liberals?
 
To admit the "states" are sovereign is to put the Constitution is in force and the law-making majority would be limited in what it can have government do.


“The several states composing the United States of America are not united on the principle of unlimited submission to their general government; but by a compact under the style and title of a Constitution for the United States, and of amendments thereto, they constituted a general government for special purposes [and] delegated to that government certain definite powers and whensoever the general government assumes undelegated powers, its acts are unauthoritative, void, and of no force. To this compact each state acceded as a state, and is an integral party, its co-states forming, as to itself, the other party. The government created by this compact was not made the exclusive or final judge of the extent of the powers delegated to itself, since that would have made its discretion, and not the Constitution the measure of its powers.” – Thomas Jefferson
 
Err, I don't know, could it be because Iraq was an independent nation that the US and UK chose to invade to depose the leader and install a more friendly government? Do you honestly have to be left wing to understand that? I've always thought Conservatives were a bit dim, but really, no one's that thick.

Texas, correct me if I'm wrong, has not been a nation on its own for quite some time and is firmly part of the United States.

Liberals... why do so many people in the US think that's an insult?
