Petition to End the Wars Month: Idaho University

Add the University of Idaho to the list of campuses that stood up this past month to call for an end to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan!

Their sign to promote getting their petitions signed and the small army men memorial can definitely be used as an example for future events. Great work University of Idaho!

Idaho to Sue Fedgov if Residents Are Forced to Buy Insurance

The Associated Press reports that Idaho has taken early action to guard residents against universal healthcare:

Idaho took the lead in a growing, nationwide fight against health care overhaul Wednesday when its governor became the first to sign a measure requiring the state attorney general to sue the federal government if residents are forced to buy health insurance.
Similar legislation is pending in 37 other states.

Although some argue that such laws will be meaningless if the federal government does pass health care "reform," this is potentially the beginning of a good revival of states' rights.
