I personally believe that Obama has a nasty private detective team who is going through the lives of every congressional representative with a sieve. I believe our elected representatives are all being blackmailed. Many of them will not be re-elected and they are more afraid of what this evil man holds on them than winning re-election. When you add to that psychological phenomena like the S. syndrome and others, you have a tremendously dangerous force for evil afoot.
However, one thing Obama and his minions do not realize. Power, REAL power, is in the hands of Almighty God, who we have asked much too frequently in recent years to go away. He has, it seems. For a time. These people are playing with forces that they have no idea exist. I wouldn’t be on their team for anything.
I agree—I’ve always thought that. And few are so squeaky clean that nothing could be conjured up or exploited so as to ruin them. I also think Dems and Republicans go to D.C. and want to fit in so badly that they will do almost anything. Thus they refer to the opposing party as “my dear friend.” After all, they want to be viewed as a guy with whom you can raise a few in whatever bar they all frequent. Few people have the internal integrity/guts to be the only one to stand up for right against peer pressure. When I saw that glimpse of it in Joe Wilson, I was on my feet cheering in my living room. It is actually a rare quality.
