Way back in 1970, Martha Mitchell said this country was going so far to the right no one would recognize it. She was more right than she ever imagined, and I have a feeling she imagined quite a bit.

This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding.
