Of all the professions in this world, why do some people insist on putting politicians on a pedestal? It is a notion I find mind boggling. Often politicians are some of the most corrupt, vile, self-serving individuals within “civilized” society, and I use the word “civilized” loosely, especially when in the same sentence with the word politician.
The best answer I’ve been able to deduce is because often times, especially with politicians, people are drawn into how a politician’s rhetoric makes them “feel.” Rhetoric has the ability to stir emotions that can be exhilarating, elating, or even euphoric. Recall how Obama’s ability to read a teleprompter used to send tingles down the leg MSNBC’s Chris Matthews (by his own admission on national television).
I suspect when many people take a look at the “real” people all around them (family, friends, colleagues, neighbors, classmates), they don’t see anyone else they really like or respect. They don’t see anyone who stirs the same passion or feelings that the powerful rhetoric of a politician can. The “real” people in their lives surely disappoint them at times too, because they’re human… they’re not “larger than life.”
I don’t profess to be Dr. Phil, but I suspect that when a politician stirs certain emotions inside people, that politician then becomes synonymous with the feeling that was invoked. I don’t need to be Dr. Phil to see with my own eyes how hard that bond is to break once it’s formed. Look around, and everywhere you look are people who are clinging to the “feeling” they once had, while refusing to face the facts of reality.
I suspect the reasoning people refuse to face reality is twofold. First, they don’t want admit they were wrong. After all, who does? Second, they don’t want their larger than life idols to disappoint them, the way the people in their “real” life do. Where am I going with all this? Simply put, I say all that for the sole purpose of keeping myself in check, lest I become another clapping seal wearing a T-shirt with a politician’s face on it. If I don’t remind myself Trey Gowdy is man, and a flawed man, just like me, I could very well have one more T-shirt in my closet.
Both the videos of Trey Gowdy in this post are so good, they have brought me to tears, and I don’t mean the kind you brush away when no one is looking. I am talking about Holy sh** I’m balling kind of tears.
The first video below is Trey Gowdy giving the convocation speech at Liberty University. For all 15 minutes of the video, it was so silent you could hear a pin drop. The second video is from a stirring speech Gowdy gave on the house floor in 2014.
I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Just remember, you have a working mind capable of independent thought. You’re no clapping seal.

This next video is from a speech given on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. Among other things, a notable quote from the speech is:
“Mr. Speaker, we are not held in high public esteem.
Maybe members of Congress would be respected more, if we respected ourselves enough to require that when we pass something, it be treated as law.
Maybe we would be more respected if we had a firmly rooted expectation that when we pass something as law, it be treated as law.
Maybe we would be more respected if we put down party labels and the desire to keep, retain, or acquire gavels, and picked up the history, the tradition, and the honor, of this, the peoples’ House…”

Schedule
Hear, Hear, Voice of Reason!….this information bears repeating. Thanks for sharing!
‘The Great Tribulation’ is unfolding right on schedule. This 3 1/2 years will begin in summer as Christ noted;
“”When the fig tree puts forth its leaves, we know summer, and therefore the end of this age, is near.
And we know that Trumpets, heralding the coming of Christ, occurs at the end of summer and the beginning of autumn.”"
Initially, I was wrong & misinterpreted scripture. Fig trees bud during the summer in June & July, not the spring.
Matthew 24:32;
“Learn a parable of the fig tree. When its branches bud & leaves begin to sprout, you know that summer is near.”
The “FIG TREE SIGN” is the best indicator that (Yahweh) Christ’s return is not far away.
“Michael told Daniel that it would last….1230 days. John heard the angel say also “3 1/2 years” (“a time”: 1 year, “times”: 2 years, and “half a time”: 6 months).”
The exact day our ‘Lord & Savior’ returns is unknown.
Matthew 24:42;
“Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.”
The Force Has Awaken. America Is Mystery Babylon The Great.
Matthew 24:37;
“As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.”

7/21/2016: “ORDO AB CHAO”
•2+0+16=18=”666″
•2+0+1+6=(9)=to “End”
•(21)=”777″ number of destruction & deception.
•7+/21=28+20/=(48)
MDCCLXXVI DECODED:
MDC=1600, CLX=160, XVI=16;
•16×3=(48) drop the 0′s
•1+7+7+6=(21)
“1776, is the Beginning year in which man is placed above God through exceeding sinfulness of sin.”
“777″ is important b/c the Antichrist will use this number to deceive nonbelievers into thinking he is the messiah.
Seven is also used w/ respect to judgment from the book of Revelation. The sequence of the 7 seals, the 7 trumps and the 7 bowl judgments.
These luciferian psychopaths make a mockery of everything. The world is their STAGE. They’re “Free” & we’re their “Mason’s”.
Revelation 13:18; “Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.”
Gematria value for Speaker of The House ‘Paul Ryan’ adds up to “36″. “666″ is the sum of the first 36 natural numbers.
“666″ is a number key Jesus himself gave us to help reveal this future deceiver of the world. Its recorded in Revelation 13:16-18.
God is not human, so he does not lie. Also, no number is assigned to the Lord Almighty.

What happened to my comment?
He is exactly right. Britain and America and most countries of the West are that people. There is no other way to explain why white people are much better off than the rest of the world. Blessed is the word that comes to mind.
Most Westerners would be shocked to find 90% of the rest of the world live in abject poverty, filth and lawlessness of which white people are mostly immune too.
And most would be shocked to find a family Bible going back generations but they have no idea why. It’s because they have lost their identity but the Bible in their possession is proof of who they are. No other tribes outside of them have that “Bible” tradition.
You stand identified America, Britain, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and some European countries.
YOU COULD HEART A PINHEAD DROP YOU MEAN.
He is amazing..this is why Trump is winning he is not a politician.
