Tune in next week on Sock Puppet theatre when they have to raise the debt limit yet again.
To: RIghtwardHo
I almost expected you to say something like this, like a good little Concern Troll.
Cruz has been a good man, but there is a time to pick your fights. He filibustered, he did all that he could reasonably do.

I think you are wrong about Ted Cruz and about whether he should be filibustering right now.

Hardly.
We understand guys. You gave it your all. Time to let America get exactly what they voted for.

Fine with me. Maybe they'll learn something.
To: onyx
I like that he called him not only the 'smartest'.
.....but one of 'the most principled law students to EVER have gone through Harvard.'
THIS is who we are getting to know.....a principled man....(rare in DC)

Why? All he dd was make noise that accomplished nothing. If I just want someone who can yell Ill vote for the Yorkie next door. Ted Cruz is a yapper, nothing more.Wow, you actually are using outright Dem-talking-points.
I won't bother to explain what Cruz accomplished, not to a troll like you.

How right you are. Without Cruz we could have surrendered 2 weeks ago like we have on everything else. The only thing Cruz did was shine the light on the liberal roaches that infest the republican party and they are just mad.
In a way Cruz has hastened the coming civil war in the republican party which is a good thing as the way it is currently being ran it will never win another national election. Whey vote for liberal lite when you can have the real thing by voting (D).
There is not opposition party to the democrats currently. The GOP has essentially adopted the “me too only a little cheaper” approach, where is the choice here? There is none.

100% agree.
Now we have Freepers going Peter King on the most conservative guy in the whole damn senate. Nice circular firing squad guys.
All he could have done would be delay it. This fight was dead the moment the RINOS refused to back Cruz’ plan.
A disgrace that people would try to throw this guy under the bus. If this is the thanks he gets, its no wonder nobody ever puts their neck on the line.
To: rarestia
EXATLY! What did the GOP get? MORE regulation? MORE IRS involvement? What GOP fool thought that one up?
To: RIghtwardHo
What can Cruz do in the Senate?? He’s not the House majority leader.
To: Sub-Driver
I will tell you the single biggest surprise in arriving to the Senate is the defeatist attitude here. I mean, we don't even talk about how to win a fight. There's no discussion. We talk about, "Hey, let's get a show vote so we can go tell our constituents we're doing something." But I promise you, Rush, if you had to sit through one Senate lunch, you'd be in therapy for a month ... but they've been here a long time, and they're beaten down, and they don't believe we can win. They don't believe it can happen, and the answer they say on every issue is, "No, we can't do it. We can't do it."'Tis better to have tried in vain, Sincerely striving for a goal, Than to have lived upon the plain An idle and a timid soul.
'Tis better to have fought and spent
Your courage, missing all applause,
Than to have lived in smug content
And never ventured for a cause.
For those who try and fail may be
The founders of a better day;
Though never theirs the victory,
From them shall others learn the way. ... Edgar Guest
Viva Senator Ted Cruz!
To: Guenevere
I think he called him, “one of the smartest.”
I’m listening to Rush right now to hear it again.
