"We assert that you sit here as the legislators of a sovereign State. If anybody, either by you or before you, has agreed to limit that sovereignty by an unholy compact, it is not binding, and you have no right to regard it." -Wendell Phillips (abolitionists, 2/27/1859) #history

I will repost these quotes during the week (like usual) with some comments. Notice the hatred for the Constitution. Did SC call the compact "unholy" in 1832-33? The abolitionist brand of nullification is applied to constitutional laws. It is a dangerous theory.
