When a politician enters the beltway an evil begins to attack their soul. Only a rare few who are very strong manage to survive. In every body of congress they can normally be counted on the fingers of both hands.

> Then get rid of them. If you are able to blackmailed, you are probably not fit to serve in office. What are they hiding? Extramarital affairs? Drug addictions? Just the same old politician secrets.

Add NAMBLA memberships to that list.

The fact is that this isn’t even a ridiculous question shows how truly desperate our situation has become.

Saw something yesterday that said dismissively Trump supporters are just angry....well why not? We’re supposed to support the same gang that has been screwing us over and over??

Yes. Of course.
Marxists and Leninists believe anything by which they succeed is fair to do. (It’s for the greater good and all that.)

You are right. There are the faithful. They are very few and very far between however.

Always remember that the vast majority of them are lawyers first And then Americans somewhere further down the list.

Can anyone come up with some other plausible explanation for what has happened in Washington since the 2014 election? What are Scalia, Thomas and Alito thinking?

I doubt it. I think they just vote the way they want. Each side wants the Justices to interpret the Constitution but each side interprets it differently. That is why we have 9 people doing it rather then Congress which would be a disaster. I think that the justices made a horrible decision on abortion and Obamacare. Abortion was the worst in history.

The outing of Dennis Hastert couldve been a signal to some in Congress who may be thinking about bucking the current “system”.

Somehow or another someone took a burdizzo to most of our representatives.

Hookers go away when you're done with them.

Carter's still around!

In an district of total corruption I would expect everyone to susceptible to blackmail. it is surprising to me that there isn’t more outings. But I suppose that as long as everyone toes the line the stories will remain under wraps for a while longer.

“I know what I want with DC. I just can’t say it here.”

I imagine what isis wants to do to DC and leave it at that.

Yes, DC is the problem.

One solution is to shut down capitol hill and make the congresspeople and the SCOTUS members telecommute from their own hometowns, it’ll make it harder and costlier for the lobbyists and bribers to do their thing.

Right now, DC is a single centralized point of attack for these goons. If most members of our elected government worked from home, surrounded by their constituents instead of the corruptors, things would be easier to straighten out.
