The Enemy Within


On September 27, 20013, a list was compiled, twenty-five Senator names long, inscribed in indelible parliamentary ink; a dark list of those who perfected the art of cowering in plausible deniability and unconscionable adherence to the enemies of truth, justice, and our sacred honor.

Each name on that list was transcribed from the heart of one who knew to do good but did it not. It is beyond time to expose it to the light:

"Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin" (James 4:17).

Mitch McConnell (R-KY), John McCain (R-AZ), Lindsey Graham (R-SC), Bob Corker (R-TN), Lamar Alexander (R-TN), John Cornyn (R-TX), Dan Coats (R-IN), Tom Coburn (R-OK) John Barrasso (R-WY), John Hoeven (R-ND), Roy Blunt (R-MO), Johnny Isakson (R-GA), John Boozman (R-AR), Mike Johanns (R-NE), Richard Burr (R-NC), Ron Johnson (R-WI), Saxby Chambliss (R-GA), Mark Kirk (R-IL), Jeff Chiesa (R-NJ), Thad Cochran (R-MS), John Thune (R-SD), Roger Wicker (R-MS), Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), Lisa Murkowksi (R-AK) Susan Collins (R-ME)

These twenty-five Republican senators— Instigated by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) and Sen. John McCain (Ariz.)--voted to invoking cloture on the House-passed resolution to fund the government past Monday, giving Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D.-Nev.) the option of stripping the bill of its ADA defunding provisions.
