Looks like you nailed it TomGuy. Watch for snippets on the boring morning shows and in the paper rags taking quotes out of context to make their paper tiger and his merry men in both houses look like they are trying to help the poor, the women and the children of our nation. My 2cents is Shut er down and bolt the doors. Nancy will come back from her 50th anniversary (surely not of a Catholic based marriage) only to find her broom replaced with an electric sweeper.
This of course won't happen due to the lack of identifiable cajones in both houses and unfortunately in the male, female, male/female, male/sheep, female/? population.

Well, well, well. Democrats are conspicuously absent this morning. Nothing to say? Don't want to be on the record?

I think that Cruz is on to something with his reading of Green Eggs and Ham to his daughters before they went to bed. Instead of the usual filler stuff that generally accompanies these filibusters, Cruz made the most of this opportunity to inform, educate, and show a way to keep close to his family. A good dad and citizen.

In the middle of all the bluster it would be nice if the Republicans would propose a BUDGET - you now, an entire year of spending and revenue forecast, so the American people could see what is being proposed, and how the government intends to pay for the spending priorities the government wants to establish. This nonsense of spending being separated from the ability to pay for spending programs is what got us to this point.

It becomes more apparent each day that Barack Obama does not possess the intellectual capability or emotional maturity to develop a budget for an entire year. In the current leadership vacuum, it is needed that somebody lead this country. It is not coming from Obama.

And if there is a government shutdown, does that mean the Teleprompter Of The United States is turned off and Obama needs to remember what he wanted to say? If nothing else, that would mean shorter speeches.

Not all Rs are your friends.

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas - against cloture, against ObamaCare

Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah - against cloture, against ObamaCare

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. - against cloture, against ObamaCare

Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo. - FOR cloture, against ObamaCare

Rep. Raul Labrador, R-Idaho. - wants to oust Boehner as Speaker

Rep. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn. - ? says “delay,defund,repeal,replace” but also has allied herself with phony Flake who voted FOR cloture

Rep. Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif. - RINO Boehner ally

Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers, R-Wash. - ? Republican Conference Chair, Boehner ally(?)

Anybody else have more knowledge of Rodgers and Blackburn?

Listening to Kevin McCarthy being interviewed by Chris Wallace, I now realize that the Democrat half of the conversation is Chris Wallace.

Gregory brings up a poll that goes against the shutdown.

Cruz responds that it is the wording — ask them in plain English and they will poll against Obamacare, etc.

Gregory defends Reid by saying that the Senate has acted.

Cruz responds that Reid has not offered anything except full funding of Obamacare, refuses to even talk about this.

Cruz brings up the delays special interests have received, while the general pubic are still on the hook to start paying into Obama care.

Gregory goes through the litany that elections have determined the issues that got us here. [Sounds like he is on the same page as CJ Roberts — you elected them, live with what they pass.]

Gregory: You spoke for 21 hours and moved no one to your side. [snarky Gregory]

Cruz responds that most of the special interest delays for Obamacare are against the law.

==

[It is the same ole rhetoric. Gregory is spewing the Dem talkingpoints. Nothing new.]

The news media is worrying about the stock market and their 401’s.

Wallace just asked McCarthy who is running the Rep party. Meaning the Tea Party or Boehner. My question and answer is just who is running this country? Communists, socialists, multi millionaire democrats who have made their livings and acquired their wealth thru their US contacts and elected offices.

I am listening to Cruz on Meet the Press. He is pointing out how the unions said Obamacare is hurting millions of workers. The only reason he can’t move the ball forward is career politicians. Not the American people. He points out all the companies cutting hours and jobs due to this law. He said he does not want a govt. shut down and the House will make sure the military gets paid but Harry Reid has to move off his absolutist position. The house has compromised. Cruz said it was unfortunate we had division among Senate Republicans in the Senate last time. The Washington establishment has been exempted from this law but the American people haven’t.

Snarky Dave: It is hard for Dems to get a word in edgewise (opposition to Cruz), because you are getting so much flack from members of your own party.

You’ll need a healthy shot of booze in your coffee.

Just got back...Cruz is so overwhelmingly smarter and a better debator...He gets his answers in and Gregory just sits there.

One question after another...he answers calmly and strongly.

CRUZ FOR PRESIDENT.!!!

OMG...this guy is awesome...

gregory-—O for 12.

Cruz—12/0——WINNER!

And anyone watching this saw Cruz as a reasoned, dare I say” compassionate” legislator fighting for his constituency and America.

Side note:

I got my Medicare and You 2014 yesterday.

If I stay with the same Medicare Advantage plan I have now, my total premium (Medicare Part B premium + keeping same Medicare Advantage plan) will increase about 30% over the current.
