I am not sure that the problem is that the idiots who would vote for Hillary do not know what is going on as much as it is the idiots who know what is going on but just don't care.

I concluded a year or two ago that the Republican leadership is as much or maybe more at fault than Obama and his supporters. As long as Republicans are led by corrupt politicians like Boehner, McConnell, Priebus, et al., I really don't expect that things will get any better. Boehner and McConnell see conservatives as more of a threat to their power than Democrats.

I also believe that the Obama administration is engaging in widespread political blackmail and intimidation of opponents. Thoroughly corrupt politicians who vote in lockstep with Obama's agenda have nothing to fear from the "Justice" Department. Those who are only moderately corrupt, like Sen. Menendez, but who oppose any part of Obama's agenda will be crucified.

The friends and families of Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, and Dianne Feinstein have become millionaires thanks to them funneling tax dollars into their friends' pockets. I have no doubt that the same is true of Boehner and other "leading" Republicans. As long as they play ball with Obama, the ill gotten gains will continue to flow their way. As soon as they seriously threaten Obama's agenda, Eric Holder, the IRS, or some other Gestapo-like agency will be sent to knock on (or knock down) their doors.

That is why tax cheats like Al Sharpton and Charlie Rangel are welcome guests of the Obamas and why people like Menendez and General Petraeus find themselves with targets on their chests. We are in danger of the presidency becoming a thinly disguised dictatorship. Maybe it already is.

Wow, just a question what happens if the keystone pipeline who stands to make money off of that?
