It's actually pretty straight forward.
Go back to Hillary and the 900 Republican FBI files. They were successfully used for blackmail to shut up Republicans. Since that time the Dems have ramped up the espionage and blackmail against Republicans. Much of what you see daily in DC is choreographed theater between the Dems and Pubbies. No meaning, all show. John Roberts' ruling on OC is a prime example of the *fear* of opposing Obama's people.
Most of the Pubbies in congress are scared to do anything of substance.
The people that believe the 2014 (and 2016) elections are going to have any meaning at all are delusional.
I've said it before and it bears repeating here;
You cannot control a fearless man.
Some things are worth planning for and sacrificing your life for. Love of one's nation is high among these.
Agreed.
