Every effort to stop this out of control socialist train is much appreciated. Good job Mr. Lee / Mr. DeMint.

Except there is no filibuster (or filibuster rule) in the House, and hasn’t been since the 19th century. Only in the Senate. Really is a freshman, isn’t he?

I hope there are no exceptions, including war or a declared emergency. We have dozens of “wars” and “emergencies” declared all the time.

As long as he does it “with civility”, the MSM should have nothing to complain about.

Where would Senator Lee cut $1.5 trillion from this year’s budget? Not $1.5 trillion over X number of years, but $1.5 trillion from this years expenditures. I would be interested in hearing his proposal.

My, oh my. After the inaugural meeting of the TP Caucus. Well, we certainly don’t want those politicians taking over this grassroots movement as Rubio noted.

So far, DeMint Paul and Lee are the only three I’ve seen make serious noise in the Senate about attacking this deficit in a meaningful fashion...and all three are so far the founding and only members of the TP Caucus.

Yeah, but I still rankle at the “unless”. The answer should be no, hell no, not under any circumstances, hunh-uh.

We need to live within our means. Period.
