Tea Party is trying to hurt the all-powerful, all-good GOVERNMENT. That’s what he’s really saying here. Government is supreme over everything. That’s what people like Reid believe. Insidious.

I thought the same thing. As if government were somehow separate from we, the people! Read the fricking Declaration of Independence and Constitution, Mr. Reid! The Tea Party is trying to protect we, the people who are the government of these United States.

cornyn should have been voted out last time. He’s not serving for the people anymore. Just a good ol boy hanging out for a free ride on tax payers money.

You know what I'd like to do? Hand Cornyn hard copy of every remark made about him on this thread and attach a copy of the comments made about our PATRIOTIC Senators for comparison to his mealy-mouthed self.

The Republican is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Democrat Party

Yup, and I just called the RNC and begged them to stop funding & supporting McCain, because McCain is destroying the party, the staff person assured me that I am not alone in my view

Watching paint dry is more exciting than listeneing to McConnell.

He better announce that his whole caucus has decided to vote against cloture.

If he believes ANY of what he is saying right now, he better not vote for cloture.

Thank you so much for starting this thread- it’s been epic:)

You're very welcome! The word had to get out and this seemed the best way to do it.

Reid looks very small after this. Reaffirms Cruz’s speech, how out of touch they are


Agreed. He doesn’t want to talk at all about kenyancare or anything Cruz said. A Soviet style airbrush of Cruz.

I am SO sick of the faux Republican Peter King. He needs to grab McShame, Linda, Midge AND ALL THE OTHER RINO's and run as who they REALLY are...leftist DimocRats!

In a sane and just world, that bunch would be running for their lives from a mob of enraged constituents.

These Republicans will talk to Harry before they will ever talk to Ted. Just shows whose side they really are on.

Did I just hear McConnell say he supports defunding obamacare?

Laughing at the comparison of Sen. Ted Cruz vs Obama.

I can just imagine how few hours Barry could talk, even with help of the teleprompter and how many “ummmms” in thousands would be uttered.

Chris Matthews tingle must be in reverse.
