Press Release of Senator Cruz Cruz: Vote Latest Example of Washington Not Listening to the People

Contact: press@cruz.senate.gov / (202) 228-7561 Friday, September 27, 2013

WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) released the following statement regarding today's vote in the Senate to invoke cloture on H.J. Res. 59:

"Today's vote by Sen. Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats to fully fund Obamacare was yet the latest example of Washington not listening to the people.

"Obamacare is a 'train wreck,' a 'nightmare,' to use the words of its Democratic author and a union leader who previously supported the bill. It is the biggest job killer in America.

"As Teamsters President James Hoffa explained in a letter to Sen. Harry Reid and Rep. Nancy Pelosi, Obamacare is hurting 'millions of working men and women ... and the families they support,' and it 'will destroy the very health and wellbeing of our members along with millions of other hardworking Americans.'

"Senate Democrats refused to listen.

Obamacare has nothing to do with health, or medical care, but has everything to do with INSURANCE.

Commie Obama couldn’t get his fellow Democrats to raise taxes on us, but he was able to force us to buy insurance from him at HIS Company Strore, at the point of the loaded Federal Gun.

It is called Nationalization of an Industry.

We are then to be in slavery to Obama.

From now on we will owe our soul to the company store.

Right ON! if anything, this has strengthened my resolve to step up the fight against Obamacare, the dems and the good ole boys (repubs).
It is officially war. The house may very well remain united. Never forget who fought for us and who fought against us.

It is as if the American people do not even exist or will not exist for much longer. Very strange.

....if they truly believe that, why are they preventing ANYTHING from implementing?? If they truly believe it will be the disaster it is, why are they approving anything that delays it? Food for thought.

Because the let it collapse caucus is composed of two types of people. Scumbag liars and stupid idiots. And both types lack any principles. Once implemented, like social security and the income tax, it will only be removed when this vial and corrupt government is removed. Look at what a train wreck social security has become. Yet they cannot remove it or even fix it.

Your comments indicate it is accurate to hereinafter refer to it as:
"CommieCare".

(Here in Atlanta, they just cut from the beginning of the Hannity/Cruz radio interview to Obama's news announcement; how timely.)

Thank you for fighting for us, Senator Cruz. The Founders would have been proud of the stand you took.

We’ll do all we can to send you reinforcements in 2014.

You have the same sense I do. It is that odd demeanor Obama had, that "Well, no matter what, I'm going to be re-elected in 2012" kind of thing going on. It's as if the powers that be, the ones in the know, know SOMETHING that will render the citizens utterly impotent.

We had Janet Napolitano telling her successor that something HUGE is going to happen, and soon.

We have lawmakers paying utterly no attention to what the public wants, lawmakers from both parties.

It informs me to prep a little harder, have a bug out plan, and see if I cannot survive what is coming.
