TextOn Tuesday President Obama announced more aid to Syrian rebels to the tune of $155 million, bringing the total amount sent so far to $365 million.
The statement from Obama's White House reads "The relief we send doesn’t say “Made in America,” but make no mistake—our aid reflects the commitment of the American people."

I think Americans need to look nearer home before dishing out their money to others -
TextThere are still more than 1900 homes in New York and New Jersey that are without utilities of any kind in the prolonged wake of Superstorm Sandy. Some families are getting assistance from FEMA and going to hotels, which they must leave every two weeks, go and apply for more vouchers and then check back in to the hotel. Others are sleeping in tents. Still others have remained in storm damaged homes without electricity, water or heat. Sandy hit the area on October 29.
It has been 3 full months and President Obama just got around to signing the aid bill.

In some states this is the case.
BUT…..you are free to move to a different state if you disagree with the state government; there are 49 other options for you. What are your options when you disagree with an overbearing federal government? Renouncing your citizenship is pretty EXTREME, don’t you think? That’s a lot more of a commitment than moving to another state.

I can't and won't deny I supported Bush, but I will also say I'm sorry. It took a few years after he left office to realize my error in supporting him and I suspect the same will happen with Obama supporters.

In my book the Bush family was evil considering the millions of iraqis they killed with their wars.
the states have the ability to govern themselves...complying with federal law is optional.

Seconded and well said.
That is really all it is, they are losing and they can't handle it. If they can't win elections...they will just try to ignore the laws of the land.
