MSM having a field day saying that entire GOP Senate has turned on Cruz. Perhaps, but why -- Cruz spoke the absolute truth! More an indictment of the GOP Senate than of Cruz, eh?

My FR tagline is from a legal maxim,-- "It is better to suffer every wrong, than to consent to wrong."

Ted Cruz won't consent to wrong.

Good for Cruz....I’ve been asking this since Bonehead first announced he was leaving.

Why wait? Why not leave now?

Unless it’s to instill further destruction to the USofA.

“Notice he said he’s going to stay a month. He’s going to stay a month in order to join with the Democrats and fund Barack Obama’s priorities,

That's what is going to happen.

Sen. Cruz: The Real Story of What Is Happening in Washington (Sep 28, 2015 – 59:47)
……… OR... “Mr Cruz Goes To Washington”

Ted Cruz couldn’t get anyone in the Senate to back him tonight as he tried to get a ban on Planned Parenthood funding and a linkage of the Iran Nuclear deal in a government funding bill. He stood alone on the Senate floor:
Cruz’s amendment would place a one-year ban on federal funding for Planned Parenthood. It would also ban the Obama administration from using funds from the short-term bill to implement the Iran nuclear deal or any “assessed contributions” to the United Nations until lawmakers receive the “side deals” between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

The “side deals” have been a key point of contention among opponents of the deal. Cruz and House Republicans have suggested that the 60-day congressional review period for the Iran nuclear deal hasn’t started because the administration hasn’t given lawmakers the agreements.

After the procedural back-and-forth, Cruz slammed Republican leadership, suggesting they repeatedly “surrender” to President Obama.

“You know, President Obama has negotiated a catastrophic nuclear deal with Iran. Republican leadership goes on television all the time and rightly says this is a catastrophic deal,” he added. “I would suggest that if we actually believed the words that are coming out of their mouths, then we should be willing to use any and all constitutional authorities.”

After this Cruz launched into an hour speech, one that Mark Levin just tweeted out saying it’s a MUST LISTEN.

Another reason Boehner should go NOW:

Here we go: Boehner won’t rule out vote to raise the debt ceiling before stepping down as Speaker

There are 98 traitors in the Senate, and many more in the House. Give them all the Rosenberg treatment.

http://blogs.rollcall.com/wgdb/boehner-budget-deal-halloween-treats/
“Boehner could pick up the Senate-passed long-term highway bill [with Ex-Im reauthorization], add the debt limit and whatever other last-minute treats he can muster with substantial help from Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and her caucus and send the message — more a Great Pumpkin than a Christmas tree — back to the Senate...”

All the House RINOs have to do is vote for the rule and then vote against the bill and let the Dems pass it.
Like they always do.

Wait. I was told by rock ribbed conservative patriots that this was not possible since feet would be held to the fire.

I guess we have a lot of liars.

We need all the names of the people who did not support Cruz on this. They need to be named and eliminated from congress.

Did Boehner respond by giving Cruz another “obscene gesture”?
