“When is he going to re-introduce and pass the bill?”
Repeating idiocy does not mean it is not idiocy.
As to introducing a bill, Can you read post 28 or does someone has to read it for you? Guess you need to be treated like a child as you are displaying the symptoms on one.
As for passing a bill, there are 100 Senators and he gets one vote. It requires more than one vote to pass legislation in the Senate, then it needs to go through the House then the President.
“The way God intended.”
God also saw the need for man to have energy, and gave us the truly remarkable substance called petroleum, abundant around the earth and ours for the taking. As natural as anything else on earth.
Yes, and this was just a very small part of “his story.” As one who worried at the time that he wouldn't be elected and reelected because the alternatives were so horrendous, through the prism of time, I've come to understand that he was not all that he claimed to be. The mess in the ME should all be laid at his feet. Through his acts, we killed off the dictators that managed to keep the ME under some semblance of control, and in so doing he caused us to spend money we didn't really have and to put thousands of our young men and women in the ground. For those reasons, he has my undying enmity.
Paul Ryan can stop some things from coming to a vote with enough GOP farmers and Democrats.
Wow....for all his bluster, Trump's followers are sure crybaby sore losers. Put on the big boy pants.

It’s the truth .. accept it
You are not making any sense again ...
Imagine that. Cruz goes to the ethanol state, is the only candidate to say he is going to kill the ethanol subsidies; Trump says he will raise the ethanol standards so Iowans can receive more money and produce more, but Cruz wins. Very telling about the two men.
Not one person has claimed to have voted for Cruz that intended to vote for Carson before hand — 4 days, not even one example. It is a lie being pushed by Trumpaholics.
Carson was polling at 8, and got 9.
Trump was polling at 29 and got 24.
Cruz was polling at 23 and got 27.
Funny how Carson getting more one pct more votes than expected somehow resulted in five more points for Cruz and five less points for Trump by Cruz "stealing" ten times as many votes from Carson that he never lost. You must be a Common Core Math person.
And pray tell, who is it that "forced" this apology? Or does reality have no meaning for you?
I little bit exaggerated maybe? Not a thing has changed, or will change, with our energy policy.
Your boy is a sore-loser crybaby. Looks like you are, too.
Accept it.
Hank
I agree especially since it doesn’t go into full effect for 5 years. He’ll give some excuse.

Funny stuff as usual you boy Trunpee pandered to the Ethanol lobby but then again he has been a crony capitalist is whole life it probably the only issue he hasn’t flipped flopped on.
Cruz had the stones and take a position that was correct even if it cost him in an state he desperately needed.
Cutting off the subsidy would have been unfair to people who had built business models based on the gov subsidies. Supporting a phase out allows businesses time to change their business model.
I could give a care about the ethanol. It is so far down the list of my issues you could not imagine. You are bashing me for giving facts. Until you understand the program that is being proposed, you should really just hold your tongue.

Did he apologize or not ?
You have to give him credit for that.
But he is no outsider!
The Kochs gave money to Cruz, Rubio, Bush. Now someone tell me again that Teds an outsider!
Cruzs presidential campaign received more money $30,200 from known members of the Koch brothers political network than any other candidate, according to an analysis by Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) of Federal Election Commission (FEC) reports.

Not only did Trump not take the conservative, common sense position on ethanol, he wants to go even further left with it by increasing the amount in fuel.
Increased ethanol levels mean increased subsidies.
Is that what we want?
Not only did Cruz do the right thing, he won doing so.
