Someone wrote earlier that one of the MSM hosts asked Cruz about our side compromising? Apparently, Cruz said we DID compromise: from a total shut off of funds to a one year delay to funding. It kind of puts it back on them asking how it is that they won’t compromise since we already had?
Not that the MSM will tell the truth but at least we have the talking point to make when we’re accused of non cooperation/compromise.
I disagree with Hume on numerous issues but I respect his opinions because he’s been right in the past over things we conservatives thought were right or wrong. Disagree, yes. But always consider Hume’s take on something as credible because he’s more balanced as to our side and what we’re trying to do.
They are transferring jobs from the private sector insurance companies to the public sector and we are paying for them. They will be far less efficient and costly than private, but that is the idea.
Because every issue that otherwise is aroused by the political process is easily morphed to health care. I remember about 10 years ago reading some sort of AMA report on handguns that was structured to rate their prominence in America as a health risk along the lines of smoking or drunk driving.
To wit: How many years after single payer is completely implemented will the feds be able to decline health insurance claims of anyone who legally owns a gun?
Single payer will give the government ultimate power and privilege, the longterm aim of the ex-Soviet regime. By comparison, King George merely wanted colonist money. Comrade Obama and the Demoviks want it all—to tell you what you can eat or drink, where you can go or not go, the fuel you can use or not use, when to run your water and when you can’t, which pound of flesh is yours and which is theirs.
Am I talking about a government so powerful that it could rip your healthy heart out of your chest and give it to a member of a favored class, a member of their nomenklatura?
Yes. Exactly that.
that saying has helped me to understand a lot !
Al Gore cracks me up with his global warming science.
He takes a low resolution bit of data, and uses it as science to argue a point that he has positioned himself to get rich from, and I am like Harrumph Harrumph!
Hey Al, you have data points of like 200 million years to prove your point, but if we increase the data resolution to 100 year sampling points the facts are against you.
The record shows that CO2 LAGS warming by 800 years, therefor warming is NOT a function of CO2.
In fact the data shows the inverse.

Brit will never speak for the Tea Party. He is an establishment guy who used to be pretty liberal on ABC. There is no way he would go along with something as radical as shutting down DC.
How else are you going to get a dialogue going about Obamacare? You think they would be discussing it without the threat?
what about Duck Dynasty?
Thanks.
Obama has found it very easy to advance his narrow ideological agenda of failure-prone Marxism.
4 years after Obama conned his Democrats into passing the Federal takeover of the cash cow of Medical Insurance, the PC, Doormat Republicans are finally timidly suggesting defunding that Federal takeover.
Without the weak, PC, Doormat Republicans Boehner and McConnell being stupidly kept in their respective leadership positions by truly cowardly House and Senate Members, Obama Medical Insurance “Care” Takeover would have been defunded long ago.
The primal yearning of the 47 % who pay no personal Federal Income tax is to belong to a tribe where all of their choices are dictated to them by their arrogant tribal leader.
This a common trait of those who have low self-esteem.
In that sense, Obamanation is truly a cult.
Freedom is defined in the dictionary as follows:
1.) Exemption or liberation from slavery or imprisonment.
3.) Liberty of choice or action.
Most of the 47 % riding in the “free” wagon seek out slavery, and lack of personal choice.
They thus feel safe.
Liberty is defined in the dictionary as follows:
1.) The state of being exempt from the domination of others or from restricting circumstances; freedom.
5.) The power of voluntary choice: freedom from necessity.
6.) Individual Liberty: Freedom from restraint in the performance of rights outside of government control.
Most people who are getting a free ride in the wagon where 47 % pay no personal Federal Income Taxes, are terrified of making a voluntary choice.
The 47 % would prefer that they be under government control where the choices are made for him.
All of this societal wussiness has made it very easy for B. Hussein Obama, aka Barry Soetoro, to advance his narrow ideological agenda of European-style, failure-prone, Marxism in spite of PC, Doormat Republican token “opposition.”
BTW, unlike taxes, Federal Obama ‘care’ Insurance charges can be increased EVERY YEAR to whatever % the present and future arrogant leaders of Obamanation wants.
BTW, BTW, the free-loading 47 % will always vote for the Candidate for POTUS approved by Obamanation.
That's a low hanging curve ball for Cruz to knock out of the park. Cruz simply has to mention that it was directed to his daughters, to whom he couldn't give their normal bed time story because of the importance to the nation.
I do...I respect Brti Hume immensely because generally...he is both fair and objective!!! Mr fear is that all Washingotn elites have no real feel for where the American people are on this issue!!! I believe the majority of the American people are on “our” side. I don’t know if you have ever tried to get a petition signed by thousands or million of folks. it’s damn hard to get 1,000 signatures...let alone garner 2,000,000 signatures which the Lee/Cruz “Defund Obamacare” has already done....and....it continues to grow....with more signatures added every day!!!
Democrats suck.
Socialists suck.
Communist suck.
Cruz, Paul, Lee, Rubio...we’ve got some talent on one side of the Capitol. Membership on the house side will need to keep Boehner pointed in the right direction until he’s replaced.....not sure with whom on that side.
Though his position is not as forceful as Cruz’s, I loved his citation of that numbskull Hoffa Jr. as an inadvertent ally of those who would put the brakes on. And his insistence that Obama is freely altering the law unilaterally and unconstitutionally...
One can only imagine what the Demovik hacks in the media would have done with unfettered alterations by Bush to existing law. The muttering would have risen to outrage in a New York liberal’s minute.

I worked in political Washington for almost 20 years and they have no feel or particular interest in what anyone outside Washington thinks. This is what makes an orthodoxy and orthodoxy. They are utterly deaf to all but themselves.
...an orthodoxy an orthodoxy.
The idea is to make Medicare into Medicaid. In other words, dump Medicare folks into the exchanges.
The GOP made the mistake of putting three Doormat Republicans in for the final innings of three important POTUS Games.
Batter “Doormat” Dole struck out first, “Doormat” McCain struck out second, and then “Doormat” Romney was called out on three strikes right down the middle.
All that training, and he didn’t even swing! In fact, the bat never left his shoulder. However, Romney did have a great smile and good hair.
With the POTUS Game lost, the GOP Big Tent fell into disrepair.
Gradually, the increasing stench made it obvious that the old GOP had died when Romney lost in 2012.
We are just now finally casting off the dead weight of the old GOP in the Senate.
We are looking forward to the Senate Primary Season.
The lingering stench of the putrid GOP dead weight was decreased a lot this week by nice cool breezes coming out of TEXAS and Utah.
One benefit of a battle is to find out for sure who your hidden enemies are.
