With little help from GOP, Ted Cruz corners Harry Reid to make a point conservatives will remember

BizPac Review ^ | December 14, 2014 | Tom Tillison

[capt. norm]

The only Republican to stand up when the other "chickens" just sat on their roosts, Ted has moved my opinion of him UP a good ten notches. When all the rest bailed on us, Ted came through! And he's done it before.

He is now cemented in as my choice in 2016. If someone can show me a better candidate, let him do so now.

[Thorliveshere]

Bravo, Ted. You continue to reveal you are the man for the job of presidency. Pray for this man, folks!

[txnativegop]

maybe a bunch of us should run for office where we each live with the campaign motto:

I DON’T WANT THIS JOB; BUT I CAN DO IT BETTER THAN _________

[paul544]

WTF!!! Only 22 votes?

[corbe]

IMHO, most of those NO votes had nothing to do w/constitutionality of Obummers ‘Don’t need no stinkin papers’, or spending 1.1T, and an awful lot of those NO’s came in after the Cramnibus was already passed, so that should tell you allot.

[corbe]

The following Senators voted for Cruz’s Point of Order, then voted FOR Cramnibus:

Thune
Vitter (WTF?)
Portman
Risch
Roberts
Grassley
Lee (WTF?)
Fischer

[rwh]

That’s exactly what I was thinking. The time of the vote sometimes matters as much as what their vote actually is. Weasels...

[MUDDOG]

But here are the Repubs who voted WITH Cruz on his motion, but then turned around and voted FOR final passage of cromnibus:

Blunt
Boozman
Burr
Fischer
Hoeven
Isakson
Johanns
Roberts
Thune

If they voted for the cromnibus, that nullifies their vote with Cruz.

[corbe]

OOPs, Sen Lee, my hero voted for Cruz (of course) and AGAINST the Cramnibus.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Ted should declare now and totally disrupt the plans of the GOP-wing of the Democrat party to shove another RINO down our throats.

[2ndDivisionVet]

He has already rented a campaign headquarters in in Houston. It’s happening.

[corbe]

Right, I need more coffee, my list is VERY Incorrect

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Ted really IS the smartest guy in the room.

[MUDDOG]

Your list in Post #27 all voted against cromnibus, except for Thune, who voted for.

[Starstruck]

I want everyone to notice that Pat Roberts who was getting so much flak during the primaries and called a RINO, GOPe and everything else voted with Cruz.

[MUDDOG]

Oops, and Roberts and Fischer were for cromnibus.

(Now you've got me doing it!)

[MUDDOG]

And he voted for final passage of cromnibus.

[patriotspride]

SO a majority of republicans think amnesty is constitutional. I want the list

---

So do I . Also, if you voted Yes, I don’t want to hear any weak knee excuse about “ I had to, the MSM would have, it’s the caring thing “

[patriotspride]

Cruz accomplished much in getting these votes on the record. He gave us a list. And come 2016, he’s expects us to check it twice and find out who’s naughty and nice....

---

And our 2 votes will be doing just that
