| 99. I think of the Repugs. as a "gang of thugs" who are in the same arena |
|
as the Mafia but with an unimaginable amount of power. The are capable of blackmail, killing/torturing family members,kidnapping, ANYTHING. I put NOTHING past this crowd. Think of what they've been involved in! I mean if we wrote down their horrid deeds over the past 6 1/2 years it would seemingly be endless and that's just what we KNOW about. I'm glad I believe that there are powers greater than us (unconventional - not in the traditional "God" sense) so I have hope.
