		<description><![CDATA[Having followed this as a resident of Idaho I will say that even this toned-down bill will face an uphill battle in the Idaho senate. This is the place that Senate Majority Leader Bart Davis helped kill the bill and tried to justify it by stating in part: 
&quot;I agree that we should do all we can to push the federal government to return to its enumerated powers...But for me, I need to do it within the system. &#8230; My heart, but not my mind, is with the supporters of this legislation.&#8221; 
 
Absolute nonsense. Let&#039;s hope he can steel his mind long enough to support this bill and that he won&#039;t let his mind betray his heart and kill this bill as well. To me this is a candid admission that he simply lacks the courage to do what is right. 
 
And more from the Spokesman-Review: 
&quot;Senate President Pro-Tem Brent Hill, R-Rexburg, told the crowd [after hearing testimony about the first nullification bill], &#8220;We&#039;re angry and we&#039;re frustrated, and I have a sacred Constitution that I believe provides for remedies for that. &#8230; I find no constitutional justification for the things that we are talking about here today. I commend you for your &#8230; goals&#8230; (and) passion. &#8230; I cannot pursue them in the manner that some of you are prescribing.&#8221; 
 
So this is what we are dealing with in Idaho. The people through their elected representatives in the House want to retain an ounce of state sovereignty but the illustrious senate leaders find the rightful remedy of nullification distasteful. Like Tom Woods says it&#039;s a solution that doesn&#039;t fall within the Gingrich to Pelosi spectrum of acceptable ideas. 
 
Our representatives will continue to &quot;push&quot; for solutions to an overreaching national government but only if it&#039;s compatible with the current twisted constitutional construct. ]]></description>
