What do Phil Bredesen and Sarah Palin have in common?…

They’re the only two governors who have signed resolutions affirming their respective state’s sovereignty:

While seven states – Tennessee, Idaho, North Dakota, South Dakota, Oklahoma, Alaska and Louisiana – have had both houses of their legislatures pass similar decrees, Alaska Gov. Palin and Tennessee Gov. Phil Bredesen are currently the only governors to have signed their states’ sovereignty resolutions.

The resolutions all address the Tenth Amendment that says: “powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.”

Kudos to Phil!

Agreed. Good job Phil! Gotta give credit where it is due. But now that we has asserted our sovereignty, let’s stop governing like we are the guys in DC.
