The Tenther Grapevine
Recently, some prominent liberals have made significant efforts to disparage the tenth amendment/state sovereignty movement as ignorant, fringe, rightwing nut-jobs.
But truly principled liberals* who desire a peaceful foreign policy are over looking how Jeffersonian constitutionalism of a limited federal government could actually help to halt the unnecessary U.S. interventions abroad. For an example, did Congress give President Obama authority to invade Somalia?
*I use the “truly principled” disclaimer to distinguish between DNC loyal media liberals who care as much about peace as GOP loyal media “conservatives” care about laissez faire from liberal activists who are sincere in their beliefs.

I'm right with you there, Greg! What we "tenthers" need to stand up for is following the Constitution - to the letter- no matter what the issue. Only when our principles stay consistent will we ever gain the legitimacy needed to push back politicians in D.C.

I agree completely. Peaceful foreign policy is very important and hopefully next time the president lies congress to war people on both sides of the isle will stand up and say that it is not right.
