I am keeping an eye on Cornyn too. I’d trade Cornyn for another Cruz in a heartbeat. You’d better be careful John, we are watching you.

Graham and Cornyn will face primary opponents next Spring.

Freepers will have the opportunity to contribute and work for the defeat these two RINO’s.

Give every penny you can spare, and if you live in South Carolina or Texas, you have a chance to fight the political war of this generation.

What's to keep an eye on? He's selling us down the river right in front of our faces. With that one vote, he just sealed his fate in the next election. We will not forget.

They both have a terminal case of Beltway Fever, and will be put out of their misery in the next election.

Orin Hatch votes Yes. Don’t forget Orin had Mark Levin and Sean Hannity’s full support vs. a GOP primary challenger. Way to go Mark; way to go Sean. Keep yelling Mark, just keep yelling, while at the same time developing destructive political man crushes on politicians like Rubio and Hatch.

[Art.] Sens. Chuck Grassley (Iowa), the ranking Republican on the panel, Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.), Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Mike Lee (R-Utah) voted against the substitute, which sponsors characterized as a bundle of technical fixes.

With the sponsors openly lying about the substantive significance of the changes and the RiNO's lying by their silence, these senators need to resign from the committee or just walk out -- walk away from it -- to highlight the dishonesty and seaminess of what is going on.

They should think of their inclusion on the committee as a 'Rat-RiNO attempt to get dirt on them, to involve them in the majority's crimes by conscription.

Hannity is pretty much, with Hugh Hewitt and Michael Medved, a Republican Establishment megaphone. Levin is a little surprising; apparently Hatch fooled him. I don't think he's fooled for a minute by what the committee is doing with this cheap-labor, open-borders bill.

US Senator John Cornyn (RINO-TX) voted with the rest of the traitors on the Gang of 8 amnesty committee today...

Not surprised. He’s been a RINO for a while now - except when it comes time for re-election.

I see my worthless Senator, John Cornyn (RINO - TX) is selling out the American people.

And yet there are still those on here who think he's the rising of the sun.

Sen. Cornyn has already forgotten that May 5 is always Mexican Go HOME! Day.

Geeez, I hope not. I haven't seen a single Freeper praise John Cornyn in a good long while.

They crawl out of the woodwork during election seasin. That is when Cornyn pretends to be somewhat conservative in order to get ekected, then returns to normal immediately after.

Cornyn is a member in good standing of the David Dewhurst Admiration Society ..... we can look for increasingly Baileyesque votes from him .... "After all, we're depending on you now, John!"

I'm sure we can count on Cornyn's endorsing the very next primary challenger for Ted Cruz -- even if the challenger is a Communist and unreformed cannibal.

A group of conservative leaders, including Al Cardenas, chairman of the American Conservative Union, and Grover Norquist, president of Americans for Tax reform, issued a statement Wednesday in support of the legislation.

Those two would endorse giving nuclear weapons to Hamas and Hisbollah.

The man is a swamp water poisoned sell-out of the First Order. It's too late for him to change his stripes. He owes too many favors to too many movers and shakers. Therefore, he's got a major challenge from the Tea Party right coming in the next election. Count on it.

I don't have any inside information. I just know that a lot of good patriots have stepped up to the plate in recent years, and are now serving in the state legislature. I'm sure the Texas Tea Parties will get behind one, and elevate them to statewide recognition.

Just like they did for Ted Cruz.

All I know is that RINO phoney, Cornyn, has got to go.
