Think Your Congressthing Will Endorse THIS Resolution?

What do you think the chances are that our current Congress would approve the following language? The Continental Congress did, back in 1775.

"We have counted the cost of this contest, and find nothing so dreadful as voluntary slavery. Honor, justice, and humanity, forbid us tamely to surrender that freedom which we have received from our gallant ancestors. . . . We cannot endure the infamy and guilt of resigning succeeding generations to that wretchedness which inevitably awaits them, if we basely entail hereditary bondage upon them. . . . [We are] with one mind resolved to die freemen rather than to live slaves." --Thomas Jefferson and John Dickinson, “Declaration of the Causes and Necessity of Their Taking up Arms”

I’d recommend sending this to your representative to ask, but it would probably scare the hell out of them and get turned over to Die Abteilung der Homelandsicherheit.
