It's not so far away where one of the most powerful Republican so called conservatives rolled into office, knowing the potential for being compromised and blackmailed was very real. In fact, it appears he was not only being personally extorted, but we don't even know the extent or if he was undermined and compromised on a national levels. The potential for this was very real.

But not such a long way from the McConnells, McCains and Grahams. Unless you think he was a dramatically changed man when he took the reigns of power and played ball with the big boys.

“Where the F*** do they find these creeps... and HOW do they keep getting elected....”

because we keep getting told, “You better vote for this creep or else the Democrat creep will get elected!” Same thing happening the presidential race right now.

Used to be a mature readers DC Comic called Hellblazer, and one of the things Jamie Delano invented was a Caligula Club for the rich and powerful, where they get to unwind, drink a little human blood, watch shaved cats fighting in a glass cage, go upstairs and get ‘serviced’ by members of the staff, do some coke...

I don’t think he will be the surprise presidential nominee at the “brokered convention”. Denny, you could have been a contender!

No, most of Congress has been buggering the American Electorate for quite a while. It isn’t by any means limited to the GOP.

Apparently there is a lot in this world I don’t know about.

It is surely possible that he is the former. There is no doubt that he is the latter.

I just assume that anyone who gets elevated and rubber stamped by the corporate media (regardless of party) is a compromised black-mailable politician. Anytime one of them retires after multiple terms, I assume they were told it is time to go for the next sock puppet (or else), like Boehner being replaced by Ryan.

The minute one of them stands up for us and our country the dogs of war are called out and any minor or major skeleton suddenly becomes front page news cycled 24/7, while the real predators like these guys get nothing but accolades and puff pieces written about them.

The only way to fix this is mass ejection of all incumbents simultaneously to overwhelm the control system that is in place why we wait on the corporate media to destroy itself as a useless agitprop/propaganda club that has run its course. In a way, this election is showing signs of this happening if you look at Bush/Rubio and how nothing the corporate media or their elite donors did made a bit of difference in them winning.

No, Obama is the highest ranking homo in the country and the world for that matter.

How many posters here think that the government has a right to know about any American’s withdrawing cash from his bank account??

They had no right until Obama made it so. Everything he did as POTUS needs to be rescinded.
