I can’t help but wonder...why didn’t we have this ‘national conversation’ at the bill’s beginnings?

We tried but our reps wouldn't play..as it went along, most of us just knew it would be deemed unconstitutional by SCOTUS. After the betrayal by Stevens, the rumbling began..and now the earthquake is imminent.

Question: To what entity should we donate to show direct support for Ted’s stand? Tea Party? A specific PAC?

I want to donate so we can say that x amount was raised during Ted’s speech on the Senate floor.

It did do that, the sunlight shining on the dark corners and so very needed.

Sick of these weasels hiding in the dark, so thankful that Senator Cruz is made of the RIGHT stuff! How amazing is he?!

Sarah sure knows how to pick them! lol

Make sure you check out’s lee’s lecture on the Supreme Court!

Yes! Heard that in real time. I'll say it again. I agree with Harry Reid. This is not a filibuster.

It is a Seminar on Liberty.

“... the enemy of my enemy’s principles is not necessarily my friend.”

I agree, but I also think I can sometimes learn something of value from them. If I coach the Vikings, I might not call the Packers my friends, but if they do something effective against the Bears, I might be interested in it for when I face the Bears. Forgive the NFL metaphor, but it seemed apt.

I’m mostly getting recordings! McConnell’s offices are a recording of high level of calls. Probably they have the machines on automatic right now... They don’t want to hear from us.... the ones that voted them in!!!!!! COWARDS!

God Morning America just showed Cruz-Guess what they showed? "Green Eggs and Ham"! Right you miserable excuses for "journalists" He's been reading "Green Eggs and Ham" for 19 hrs. Still though Ted was the top story. He's out in the public eye now... woooohoooo!

How about reading some more "Make DC Listen" tweets?

I was talking to a far left friend last night about O Care. She said her company is raising her insurance rate. She was shocked to hear about the IRS involvement in the healthcare biil, and about the "navigators", who will have access to her financial records, as well as her health records. She did not know that the politicians gave themselves exemptions

Still going. Predicting that before it is over, Obama will exempt unions from O-care. Notes that it would be unlawful, but so was O’s exemption of big businesses, federal workers, and congressional staffers. He’s not only still going, he is still sharp as a tack.

Yes he is. It is a sight to behold.

I am in awe. The knowledge and ability to convey such is jaw dropping.

Where are the others? I haven’t found out yet who else has showed up to support this brave and amazing man!
