Why three Obama nominees are so controversial (and how Ted Cruz let it happen)

When you write stuff like that, you can avoid the real story, which was that Boehner enabled the budget to go through.

[House Atreides]

“...What we’re seeing is Reid helping out McConnell blame Ted Cruz and the Tea Party for getting progressive nominees confirmed, when they were going to be confirmed anyway.”

Cotton, you’ve nailed it!

Citizen Zot?????

[Citizen Zed]

Yes and there goes Lindsey Graham throwing the Tea Party under the bus again. I’m thinking Valarie Jarret wrote the media memo on this story. Makes me ill too.

Were Congress really concerned, they woulda wiped out the Tsars years ago.

Did a mod say that he/she added the (comment) in the title?

Posters of threads can do that you know.

[Vaquero]

What’s you game Noob? You from DU? Daily Kos?

You have some ulterior motive.

[EEGator]

[skeeter]

You’re right. To conclusions I jumped.

[Citizen Zed]

Having second thoughts about the post. I don’t share the sentiments of the story. 1000 apologies.

[Syncro]

Cruz and Lee should filibuster!

Can they do that?

McConnell is going to replace Reid early in January.

He's a lot like Reid, SOP will continue unless the conservative Senators become giant SQUEEKY WHEELS!

Please add me to the Cruz Ping list. I plan on being front and center in getting him elected to POTUS.

...said Sen. Lindsey Graham

Oh shut up.

[GeronL]

lol

They are so blatant about their biases it is laughable

[Hostage]

Boehner is part of the GOP Establishment turncoats who I wrote about in the post. Did you not read?

[odawg]

Yes, but due to the fact that I’m still stunned by Boehner, the appointments are nothing compared to his treason. I was just listening to Hannity; even he explained that the appointments were going through—Reid would never let his power expire unused.

[Citizen Zed]

Sorry.

[Usagi_yo]

I like Cruz, but not a fan of him having presidential aspirations at this time, but I call B/S on that one.

[SoConPubbie]

Please add me to the Cruz Ping list. I plan on being front and center in getting him elected to POTUS.

Amen to that fellow FReeper!

You've been added to the Ted Cruz Ping List!

[Citizen Zed]

My bad. Not my belief. Just trying to summarize the story.
