Many in Congress defend their treason
(eg support of al Qaeda against the American people;
and support of financial destruction of America)
by claiming they are only docile and tractable.

In fact, their increasing incomes
(at the expense of the American people driven to poverty)
and their exclusion from the very
Laws that they pass for others (eg. ObamaCARE)
declare that this is just another pathetic excuse.

Their active behavior reveals them to be
salient traitors to the US Constitution
and systematic violators of the very Oaths
they were supposed to have taken.
