Video ~ John Boehner's Speech 3-21-10: We have failed to listen to America. And We have failed to reflect the will of our constituents

[Brugmansian]

In 1774, in response to the first Tea Party, the British Parliament issued a series of acts designed to control the colonists, stop their protests and restrict their liberty. The Americans called these “The Intolerable Acts.”

One of the acts, the Declaratory Act of 1766, stated Parliament had sovereignty over the colonies in "in all cases whatsoever."

Those four words incited the colonists more than any tax. They were blasphemous. Only God had sovereignty in all cases whatsoever.

This health rationing/tax revenue bill is similar to that declaration of power. There is nothing in our lives over which Pelosi, Reid and Obama do not claim to have sovereignty.
