They've been given the NWO blueprint and agenda )part of it). They've been told what to do. They THINK their families have a seat on the train with the ruling elite. They are operating out of fear, greed and self preservation.
In another note, I see Paul Ryan voted for it too. See, losing in 2012 really meant nothing. Both sides were going to usher in fundamental transformation. One side just would have called it something else while they carried their bible to church on Sunday and posed in hunting photos.
Someone gave Boehner the bright idea of having then congressman Bill Paxon -R-NY of arranging a meeting for Boehner with Armey and DeLay to have Newt step down as SOH. BTW Paxon's wife was also Congressman-R from NY and along with Christie Whittman the GOP-E Big Tent speaker at 1996 GOP Convention. But yes it has become a Bought & Paid For by Donors Oligarchy of political families and fringe radical left groups. USCOC likely holds the most clout though. They for all practical purposes ran the GHW and GW Bush administrations agendas. Remember unkie Prescott? Where was he when our plane was forced down?
