Nullification in the NY Times

  • Share on Tumblr

A fair reference to Tom Woods in the NY Times? And on states rights and nullification? Amazing:

“Everything we’ve tried to keep the federal government confined to rational limits has been a failure, an utter, unrelenting failure — so why not try something else?” said Thomas E. Woods Jr., a senior fellow at the Ludwig von Mises Institute, a nonprofit group in Auburn, Ala., that researches what it calls “the scholarship of liberty.”

Mr. Woods, who has a Ph.D. in history, and has written widely on states’ rights and nullification — the argument that says states can sometimes trump or disregard federal law — said he was not sure where the dots between states’ rights and politics connected. But he and others say that whatever it is, something politically powerful is brewing under the statehouse domes.

And yes, NYT, that’s what we call it. Read the whole article.

Please don't anyone think that the NYT is suddenly changing their "colors". They are very smart people, very close to achieving power. They would love to split the anti-government movements and will give whatever group they think would enable them to do that will get publicity.
Love the publicity, but, don't ever trust or think these "guys" are not your dedicated opponents.
