16. That is the one I missed as well, but not for those reasons.

An earlier question was about quotes in the Constitution, and all three they quoted were in the Bill of Rights. So I figured to include the Amendments.

But I knew the income tax amendment (16th) did not use the exact phrase "income tax". So that was my reasoning behind selecting it.


I didn't care for their choice of a quote that was not in the Constitution. Rightwingers use that absence to stir up their lying shit on the subject of separation of church and state all the time. And now they have another excuse to go into another round. Which will, of course, gives the Post something to print.
