Lets reminisce about the Obamacare rollout ....Do you recall when the republican Governors resisting it were being called Treasonous vipers.
The Lefty media would sing about the joy and magic of Federal supremacy...How dare Texas and Nebraska governors decide they dont like what Washington is doing?
"Do States have a right to refuse the federal government...Nah thats for Kooks,conspiracy theorists,Crazy Militias,Ron paul fans and Racists ...the kind of people who wear Camo everyday ,avoid showers and have dirty beards going all the way down to their dycks.
Rachel maddow called the republican governers "Neo confederates"

California Lieutenant Governor Gavin Newsom
We’re not a monarchy. We’re a representative democracy, so we have agency, we have a voice. We have the ability not just to navel gaze, but to act, to be engaged — to resist. We’ve got to dust ourselves off and step up, and not just roll over and act as if we don’t have a very potent role to play in our democracy, particularly at the city level … if he does try to build a wall, there is legislation in California to challenge the administration, by requiring the construction of the wall to be put to a vote of the people of California.
Virginia
Gov. Terry McAuliffe
President Trump’s new orders on immigration are “scaring people” and no replacement for comprehensive immigration reform.
Already, the Democratic governor has promised to veto a trio of bills from the Republican-controlled legislature that would help federal agents root out illegal immigrants, saying his state won’t turn local officials into an arm of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“We are not going to deport ourselves out of this problem. Just stop that talk. You’re scaring people,” he said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe.”
HONOLULU, Hawaii – Hawaii leadership is taking a stand against President Donald Trump’s controversial executive order on immigration.
On Friday, Trump signed an order calling for a 90-day ban on nationals from seven countries entering the United States. The countries are predominantly Muslim nations. The order also includes a 120-day stop on admitting refugees and an indefinite halt on admitting Syrian refugees, media reports.
The move drew immediate criticism from the U.S. Senator from Hawaii, Mazie Hirono.
“It’s despicable that President Trump chose Holocaust Remembrance Day to issue yet another executive order that exploits fear of refugees and immigrants,” Sen. Hirono said in a statement. “This is wrong. I will continue to fight the President’s extreme, knee jerk actions that divide our country.”
Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Monday at an event at a children’s hospital.
“Administrations may change, but our values and principles as it relates to inclusion does not.”
Mayors of New York City, Seattle, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Minneapolis and other major cities also promised to defend their immigrant populations.
They embraced a core conservative tenet and are too Clueless and self absorbed to see it...
Liberals thought shyt was sweet when the Tea party was saying Washington has too much power,too much control...the presidency is becoming Imperial
Apparently NOW the constitution matters more than executive orders
The irony is That thats exactly what the Founders envisioned...Experimentation..Different states trying different things..some will fail some will succeed and the others will have to copy that success.
Perhaps Trumps election is Inadvertently restoring the republic....
