Christine did know the 16th Amendment, just not memorized by number. O RLY?!
Yeah, right. Let's review what she has to say about the 16th Amendment:
"[the sixteenth amendment] gives Congress the power to tax."
Now let's look at the Constitution (not the sixteenth amendment) as it was:
"The Congress shall have power To lay and collect Taxes,[...]"
Ol' Grifter Girl evidently wasn't aware that Congressionally instituted taxes--even income taxes--had been around before the sixteenth. Even Pollock didn't take that away from Congress.
But I'm not a lawyer. Perhaps you know one who can explain how she somehow meant something other than what she said. Maybe that lawyer can teach you what the sixteenth really did.
The rest of us realize she's a dishonest loon with a veil of pseudoconservatism that gets broken every so often when scrutiny gets close.

Gondring, isn't it funny you spend so much time attacking conservatives, but never liberals.
Where do you get your lies?
Here is the exchange at the Widener debate:

Christine made no comment like what you suggest about the 16th amendment.
THE QUESTIONER described the 16th Amendment as giving power of Congress as "THE FEDERAL INCOME TAX"
Christine made no such statement as you lie and claim here.
Gondring, what should all people looking at you learn from the fact that you spend so much energy attacking conservatives and NONE attacking liberals?

Again you claim that Christine O'Donnell said:
Yeah, right. Let's review what she has to say about the 16th Amendment: "[the sixteenth amendment] gives Congress the power to tax."
CHRISTINE SAID NO SUCH THING, as the video shows:

Chrsitine explicitly said "I SUPPORT LOWING THE FEDERAL *INCOME* *TAX* ",
Christine was talking about the INCOME TAX
And you knew that. You are simply lying.
