Some outfit called the Tenth Amendment Center used the occasion of Constitution Day yesterday to urge Americans to encourage their states to “opt-out of the shackles of the federal government.” They demand that candidates in the 2010 election sign on to their “10-4 pledge to return sovereignty to the states.” The last line of this clip: “The federal government is as worthless as it is dangerous.” The tenthers are behind much of the secessionist movement we’ve seen in states such as Texas, Montana, and Idaho.
