What dark spell are the masses under? Why do they refuse to see what seems to be so obvious? Why do they continue to defend the indefensible?

The masses are in the dark. Only a small percentage try hard enough to learn what's really going on. For example, even Rush doesn't mention half of what I wrote above. Nor does Hannity. Mainstream Republicans used to frustrate me to no end. They are so cautious. But then, the fire eaters, such as B1 Bob Dornan, James Trafficant, Paul Weyrich, Chris Ruddy, etc, they all feel a glass ceiling over their heads, don't they? And then they get picked off, one by one, in one way or another.

I agree with you. And I wonder what ammunition is being directed at people like Rush. True, some of the more outspoken elected types get ousted sooner or later, but some of the others, such as Ollie North, find their way into the media.

I would think that there might be some modern day Woodward and Bernstein types on the conservative side willing to go after political corruption, no matter which side of the aisle it seeps from. The Clinton affairs have proven that to be a false assumption. If ever there was a target rich environment for the expose minded reporter, the Clinton WH was the place. And the best that could be done was Monica? Even in the face of overwhelming Democrat defections and loses, the dems didn't clean house. Eveidently there are some foundation rattling secrets that are keeping a lot of tongues from wagging. I guess anyone would keep quiet given the right threat. By the way, is there a Bush death list?

Looks like you can add Barr to the list. The first to vote for impeachment lost his job.
