Mike Lee and I (Ted Cruz) are gonnna fight with every breath in our body to stop Obamacare
Breitbart ^ | September 18, 2013 | Debra Heine

Posted on 09/19/2013 6:49:43 AM PDT by upbeat5

Senators Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT) were on Hannity Wednesday night to discuss the ObamaCare fight now that they have gotten what they wanted and the onus is on the Senate to pass the continuing resolution defunding it.

Cruz declared, "Mike Lee and I are gonna fight with with every breath in our body. As Churchill said, we will fight on the beaches, we will fight on the streets, we will fight at every step to stop the biggest job killer in America."

Lee made the point that once the CR passes the House, "the only people who can produce a government shutdown are Harry Reid, the Senate Democrats and the President of the United States."

I’ll tell ya, when I was at the defund rally in DC on the 10th I listened to Lee, Cruz, Paul, Bachman and others, and really didn’t get the sense that there was a lot of hope for our side.

It seemed as though they were letting us know that they tried, but other than whatever effect the people calling their reps. might have, it didn’t look very good. It was good to hear them speak, but on the whole I didn’t get the sense that we could expect any outcome which our side would consider even a small win. There were actually a lot of speakers, and each spoke for only 5 min., so the thing moved right along. We left after a little over an hour. I was getting bummed out by the messaging really.

But it looks like it turned around a little since then - I hope so anyway.

I don’t believe you can filibuster a CR under the rules (it is like an appropriation bill)

hmm.. this is from a slate article i read in july-

Fellow Republicans have spent a few days battering the "defund" movement, insisting that it's a waste of time—no way you get the Senate to agree to it, no way you get the president to sign it. Cruz's first strategic answer to this was insisting that the CR could be filibustered, "if we hold 41 Republicans." They didn't need a majority. "The model I would turn to is the battle over guns," said Cruz, a battle that ended in a Republican victory even though most senators voted for a background checks bill.

They always talk tough, then they roll out the “compromise”.

If they don’t mean what they say, spare us the pomp...

I checked. It is the budget bill which cannot be filibustered. I put appropriation bills under this type. Budget resolutions cannot be filibustered. Any bill which has a statute dictating a set amount of hours for debate cannot be filibustered. The Congressional Budget Act of 1974 set the amount of hours for budget resolutions at 50 hours, after which a vote must be held.

Cruz declared, "Mike Lee and I are gonna fight with with every breath in our body. As Churchill said, we will fight on the beaches, we will fight on the streets, we will fight at every step to stop the biggest job killer in America."

Bravo Ted! I'm liking him more every day!
