It seems what is happening right now shows the extent of the disconnect. The house voted for 4437, because they represent specific small communities, rotate every two years and know there would be hell to pay.
Our 100 Peers of the Land by contrast care not because they know there would be enough dittoheads to reelect them, especially by the time the damage is done. They count on it. What do they care anyway? They consider themselves well-insulated from any trouble by their wealth, gated communities, private bodyguards, and a retinue of lawyers. What happens to the unwashed peasants is completely irrelevant. In that, they have revealed themselves to rival their Mexican counterparts. Notice the disappearing illusion of partisan differences. You can't tell one traitor from another with a score card.
I fear by the time your average Joe understands what is being done to the country, it may very well be too late. On the other hand, the minutemen and the explosion of membership at places like NumbersUSA does show that people are waking up. It remains to be seen if that would happen fast enough.
