The Twittersphere on Thursday is observing the 80th anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition, which was once the (unpopular) law of the land. Of course, Prohibition was repealed, which gives some hope that another law of the land could soon meet a similar fate.

Next time a leftie says that Obama care is the law get over it. Remind them that Prohibition was 18th Amendment. pic.twitter.com/N1UnWT26om

Today is the 80th anniversary of the repeal of Prohibition! It took 13 years to repeal. How long before we repeal Obamacare?

I seem to remember that prohibition was the law of the land. Remember how that turned out? #Obamacare #FullREPEAL

Full repeal? We’ll drink to that.
Today, we look at the virtues of repealing a failing, unpopular, illiberal law. It’s also the 80th anniversary of Prohibition repeal.

'@iowahawkblog @TempletonRye If we're lucky, we'll be celebrating the 80th anniversary of Obamacare repeal in 2094.
