How is that possible? Bentivolio is a lame duck congressman, he goes home in a week and does not come back in January.

How do you expect to ‘hold him accountable’????

“How do you expect to ‘hold him accountable’????”

One might remember the act of one James Calhoun and his cane.

Just rememberin’.

;-)

Honor was once expected of those who swore to “Preserve and Protect the Constitution”, and the honorable dealt with the dishonorable, rather than waiting for other agencies to correct the bad behavior of one of their fellow trough feeders.

What we are observing is typical behavior of the Trough Feeder Class, behavior well known to the Founders. HOWEVER ! ! those same Founders knew that no law could substitute for a self regulating citizenry who exercized “eternal vigilance”.

We trusted government to be honest “Trough Feeder Persons”, and from Obama to IRS flunkies, we had our faces rubbed in what the Founders knew would happen.

Diogenes is said to have taken a candle and gone searching for an honest man. He never claimed to have found one, and that is why the Founders divided power. We thought we had done what Diogenes had not - but Obama and other Trough Feeders were not honest men, nor do they believe themselves committed to their oath of office.

Such is always the price of not being eternally vigilant, and the unavoidable price of accepting anti-American premises.

Now we must pay for our stupidity and lack of vigilance.
