BEDFORD: How Cruz, Lee and Paul shut down Obama’s agenda
Daily Caller ^ | Oct. 14, 20113 | Chrisopher Bedford

After Republicans drifted for years without a pilot, Sens. Ted Cruz and Mike Lee have taken the helm of the GOP, steering their party and its grassroots into a much-needed, head-on battle with the Democrats.

On the campaign trail on the way to his win in November 2012, President Barack Obama promised to finish the work he’d gone to Washington to do: “fundamentally transforming the United States.” Things look tough for the right in Washington today, but the reality is these three conservative Republicans, aided by friends in the Senate

Any and all efforts to oppose the socialist policies of Obama are worthwhile and heroic even if they are not now successful.

“fundamentally transforming the United States.” =

Ditch Capitalism for Socialism =
Provide reparations for past injustice where

This article shows exactly why Cruz, Lee, et al are so hated: they're effective.

Looks like no time for amnesty this year.

However the big test will be how next years midterms go, and of coures how bad the GOP surrenders this year.

Man, looking back on the last 10 months, it’s crystal clear the establishment Republicans are working for the Democrats. All these Obama things have been stopped and they are livid!

Obama may yet “fundamentally transform the United States” as he promised in the last election, by driving it into default and financial ruin. Seems like the easiest available option for a man who hates America. All he has to do is just keep turning down or vetoing all of the compromises put forth, however reasonable or necessary they may be.

He’s got no interest in doing the right thing for us. If he were told that his behavior is going to bring on the ruination of America, his response would be “Bring it on!”
