"Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of the government. The history of government is a history of resistance. The history of liberty is the history of the limitation of government, not the increase of it."

--Woodrow Wilson

- House Minority Leader John Boehner (R-Ohio) said yesterday that he hopes more members of Congress will object to President Obama appointing an adviser who has attacked the Catholic Church.

On Wednesday, Boehner signed a letter with nearly two dozen prominent Catholics calling on President Obama to remove Harry Knox from the President's Advisory Council on Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships because of his history of anti-Catholic statements.

At a press conference Thursday, Boehner repeated his call and urged other members of Congress to raise objections about Knox's appointment.

"I just think that the appointment of Harry Knox to head the office of Faith-Based Activities, considering his anti-Catholic rhetoric over the years, is inappropriate and that's why I signed on to the letter," Boehner told CNSNews.com during his weekly press conference.

"I would hope that more members of Congress would raise objections as well."
