"Another senator said it was a strategy without an end game."

Oh, but there was an endgame...to get every senator, especially the republicans, on the record.

And when push came to shove, twenty republicans opted to stand with democrats, rather than stand with Cruz and the constitution.

This is a long battle, and there are more traitors that need to be exposed.

Orrin Grant Hatch votes against Ted Cruz, surprise, surprise, surprise! People in UT will never see the hypocrisy.

There are more traitors than “good guys”, but our little Republican primary votes are too uninformed to know that.

“The 43-year-old Texas freshman in a hurry”

I am sure that Yahoo described Obama the same way....

Given the GOP leadership and their dedication to surrender, if Cruz is making them angry then he is on the right track.

They keep saying they are in the for the “long” game, versus Cruz’s actions. I have to ask, however, when does their long game bear fruit? Because I have been waiting since 1998.

They are corrupted and need to be forcibly removed. It’s long past time for these men to fear the citizen.

Go, Cruz.

“Roiled ‘em”, you say? GREAT!

Keep it up, Ted! One of the few voices truly representing conservative, freedom-loving Americans everywhere.

“Oh, but there was an endgame...to get every senator, especially the republicans, on the record.”

Yep, and how many of the GOP-e candidates ran on repealing Obamacare? Now they fully funded it for another year!

Lying bastiges!

If we get the WH again, prez should just declare that 0bama’s nominees are declared void. End. Should not enforce any 0bamacare provision. Do not enforce and EPA reg. Do not enforce any Dept of Ed. edicts. Just. Stop. Enforcing.

The whole prosecutorial discretion thing is going to make HUGE swings depending on who is president... until the legislative branch takes back their powers.

And something else— the FIRST actual budget in how many years? Because prior years— the dems in Senate and the House majority would not ever pass an OBAMA budget as their own.

So this is exposing the lying shiite of Reid and Co., who never proposed a budget of their own to answer obamas’/

This is some inside baseball crap. Cruz exposed the RINOS, the dems who said yes were a mix of outgoing and staying dems, much reduced of course. Nice little piece of faux footwork on McConnell’s and Boehner’s part.

Ted Cruz stood up for all of America. While the basis of this statement is against the funding of Amnesty in the budget bill, a lesson in politics begins at about 11 minutes. This is 36 minutes every one concerned about our future should listen to.

In the speech you hear Senator Cruz referring to Madame President and may wonder why. On this day, for political positioning Elizabeth Warren was given the position. At the end Elizabeth Warren, the democrat presidential hopeful is dumbfounded by what was just presented and in her confusion she does what Barack Obama does – pushes the motion on to someone else who will be in charge later.

Yeh the party of status quo does not like the boat rocking in a new direction. We have new blood coming in Jan 2015 so hopefully the boat will really start rocking then. Steve Stockman joins the club and a few other conservtives.

The ONLY funds I contribute money to is the Senate Conservatives Fund and the Congressional Tea Party members in individual races.

I actually took my sticker that says : “Sorry, I make my candidate contributions through the Senate Conservatives fund” and put it on the GOP fundraising application I got from them and sent it back!
Eff them!
