Now ask yourself FR and other conservative sites just happened to have a flood of people screaming how we had to vote for those ‘Republicans’ “No matter what”.

I made that mistake the last two presidential elections. Not this time. If we don't have a real conservative I will vote for the other offices.

We have a RINO running for state delegate, this time I am voting for the libertarian candidate.

It’s dog days as far as the Republicrat majority is concerned.

The other half of the one party system has a photo of Boner French kissing a poodle.

I can’t say here what they have on McConnell; it’s just too bazaar.

You cannot blackmail a willing person.

No one is perfect....as the party of family values, the republicans are more open to blackmail then Dhimmicrats. The Jackass Party politicians get a boost from the base if they are Druggies, Homo, infidelity and many other slimy characteristics.

Blackmail is not needed for lying sociopathic traitors
like the entire GOP, except Sen. Sessions and those
who voted against the entirety of ObamaTRADE.

Duhhhhh...... I've been writing about how Roberts has been blackmailed for two friggin' years now!

He smuggled his kids in from Ireland to central America,NYT even wrote about it!! He got busted at the 11th hour of the first try on zerocare. He wrote the "for" and "against" its how zerocare became a tax. Hes been compromised for a while now.

This is spot on. Who would you rather elect if you were an elite somebody with scruples or somebody you could manipulate and control? The Clintons recognized this early on and grabbed the FBI files (Who hired Craig Livingston?).

Occam's Razor would suggest that they are being bribed.

Bribery is easier than blackmail..

With photoshop, why would they bother?

I think it is more rewards of the lesser sort as in Boehner’s air force one ride and lots of valuable goodies not to mention some idiocy in planning the country’s long term goals domestically and worldwide. It’s true that, in the main, the smartest, most capable and ethically sound people won’t run for office.

The “pivot” to Iran comes to mind on the heels of the complete mess in the ME, and TPP and the effort to contain a China that isn’t going to be contained economically.

It’s like watching someone fall off of a building in slow motion.

Of course, the end result, splatting all over the ground below is the same at any speed.

no one is perfect

The Republican pols who campaign as something they're not in order to win the social conservative vote are setting themselves up to be blackmailed.

This so often repeated foolishness is the wishful thinking of cretins who still believe in the "Republican Party".

Sure, any Member of Congress with any sort of power has compiled a stack of blackmailable misdeeds, sexual, intoxication-related, or bribe taking.

But it's much more probable that, since they all come from the same social class, all go to the same schools, all are trained the same way, all marry the same women, all share the same girlfriends or boyfriends, and all are offered wealth far, far beyond their native ability to create, that they (your "key Republican leaders") are true believers in the dominant paradigm - that the time for self-government is over, that the voters are idiots who deserve to be screwed over, and that the only security for themselves and their families is to be enthusiastic soldiers in the New World Order, even if they need (mercifully brief) periods of concealment around election time.

I suspect some of these Republicans actually agree with the Obama agenda.

Or does a loved one have a secret they’d like to keep? They’ll come at you sideways. When you think of blackmail or extortion you generally think of what happened to Hastert, but how did Hastert gain his millions? By playing ball. So given the option of exposure or silence/millions which would the average politician pick?

We elected average politicians from the general population all the time. Al Gore is a dope, but a dope worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

The scandal is not that Republican “leaders” are being blackmailed. The scandal is that Republican “leaders” agree with Obama.

This is an internal scandal. And as long as conservatives keep supporting these types of candidates and the spawn they generate, we will deserve what we get.

The Republicans in Congress are 100% immune from blackmail, because blackmail requires some semblance of integrity.

LISTEN TO WHAT THEY SAY!

The GOP

• wants to be inclusive
• wants to work with Obama
• wants to increase government
• opposes spending cuts
• hates conservatives

Blackmail? Hell no! They are disgusting, lying, sewage-swilling, traitorous, seeping, pustules who willingly sell themselves into further degradation because they love wallowing in filth!
