Gosh, I have to take back a whole lot of previous comments, but I’d happily eat those nasty words!

Maybe, just maybe, John Boehner is getting tired of being characterized as the ‘weeper of the House’ who always caves and gets rolled?

Or maybe Ted Cruz made a huge impression on him. I’d like to think that Senator Cruz is the primary reason: Boehner watched a true American patriot, freedom fighter, stand on principle for “God, freedom and Country” and something clicked.

We’ll keep watch and we’ll also keep praying.

Cruz later said: "I think it is unfortunate that any member of the United States Senate should want our votes to occur outside of the view of the American people."

Dang!!
Bet Corker needed help walking away after that one.

He just doesn’t want to end up like Tom Foley is all.
Re election is all that matters to these types, but no matter,here’s to hoping that he sticks it to the commies good.

I still don’t trust Boehner, but this is a good start. His feet need to be held to the fire..

"This is confusing to me," Corker said. "I'm understanding the reason we're waiting is that y'all have sent out releases and emails and you want everybody to be able to watch. It just doesn't seem to me that that's in our nation's interest."

And I thought Democrats were out of touch. Is this quote in context? If so, it REALLY reflects poorly on Corker.

I said yesterday that it would be great if Corker went after Obama with the same vigor....of course, maybe he does but the media won't cover that news.
