Boner is being blackmailed. Most of the Pubbies in congress have been getting blackmailed by the Dems ever since the Hildabeast got those 900 FBI files. As tin foil hat as that may sound, I think there is a large element of truth in it. The Dems own most of the Republicans and are squeezing the family jewels in a big way.
The 900 FBI files were a long time ago. Today I suspect the NSA is helping the RATS in a big way.
The Repubs have gotten too comfortable to have the balls to stand up to the blackmail. ANOTHER reason we need tight term limits.
