The wheels are coming off the clown car that is the modern Republican Party. House and Senate GOP leaders are sniping at each other, on Twitter and, even more nastily, via their congressional aides. And no ones been more vilified than the junior senator from Texas, Ted Cruz. Not even Barack Obama, for a change.
Cruz has defiantly led his party down the dead-end path of demanding that Democrats agree to defund Obamacare in exchange for Republicans voting to keep funding the government. Polls find even Republicans dont like that idea, and so a few GOP politicians are asking what Cruzs endgame is. And when Cruz said he knew Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid wouldnt let such a bill pass the Senate, and suggested it was all up to House Republicans, the knives came out.
Actual House Republicans attacked Cruz under their own names. Arkansas Tim Griffin tweeted, so far Sen Rs are good at getting Facebook likes, and townhalls, not much else. Do something. Wisconsins Sean Duffy likewise tweeted, House agrees to send #CR to Senate that defunds Obamacare. @SenTedCruz & @SenMikeLee refuse to fight. Wave white flag and surrender.
Rep. Paul Ryan told Politico in an interview, not via Twitter, that hostility to Cruz and other Senate GOP extremists is pretty palpable in our conference, I would say. You mean about how theyre saying were not going to fight, and back at you, were not going to fight but forget about what we said earlier? Yeah, theres a bit of frustration.
We all believe the same thing, we all want to achieve the same goal, and so we shouldnt be questioning each others conservatism over tactical disagreements.(continued)

Joan Walsh is a stupid twat.
Ted Cruz Ping!
If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.
Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!
Yet the high and sanctimonious media and political hacks insist of forcing it down our throats with a boot to the back of our necks.
It is confusing. BTW, well stated!
Every RINO and socialist hates Cruz including that prissy little wimp Chris ( son of Mike) Wallace . Wallace snapped at Tucker Carlson this morning pn FOX hen Carlson asked him about Obama’s vicious attack on the GOP.
Then the prissy little elitist when on to attack Cruz over Obsmacare.
Write those idiots at FOX and tell them to DUMP Wallace. He belongs on CNN.
Please place me on the Ted Cruz ping list. Thanks
Not me!!!
Done!
