The U.S. Senate has some arcane procedural rules, and as ordinary Americans our eyes glaze over trying to decipher them. But its important for us to understand that Sen. Ted Cruzs efforts to defund Obamacare are worthwhile and doable.
We shouldnt preemptively surrender the fight to those who rammed through this outrageously burdensome and unaffordable ploy for government control of health care even though some are trying to convince us that the fight is futile. Just because a fight isnt easy, doesnt mean its not worth fighting.
This defund movement boils down to a very simple request. As Andrew McCarthy recently pointed out: Obama himself has already unilaterally and unconstitutionally defunded aspects of Obamacare, including repugnant accommodations for big corporations, Obama insiders, and members of Congress. All were asking is that the rest of America get the same relief from this awful law that Obama cronies, the ruling class, and the politically-connected get.

Please call your senators and politely ask them to stand with Senator Cruz. This is especially important if your senator is a Democrat up for re-election in a red state in 2014. That would be Senators Mark Begich (D-AK), Mark Pryor (D-AR), Mary Landrieu (D-LA), and Kay Hagan (D-NC). Remind them politely that we are watching their votes very carefully and even a procedural vote that shuts down this debate will be regarded as a vote for Obamacare, and there will be consequences for them at the ballot box next year. The same goes for Republicans up for re-election. We definitely expect them to stand shoulder to shoulder with Senator Cruz through thick and thin.
The number for the Capitol Hill Switchboard is 202-224-3121. Ask for your senators office. You can also find their contact information and contact them online at

Remember, we elected these senators precisely for moments like this. If they cant do anything with the power weve given them through their elected office, then perhaps its time for them to retire and let someone else have a go.
Opposition to Obamacare carried us to victory in 2010. And 2014 is just around the corner.

God bless and protect Sarah.
She’s speaking from my heart and head. One other writer said that the Democrats are an organized crime syndicate masquerading as a political party. We need to stop these crooks, from Obama down to the county clerk.
God, what a fine President she will make!!!
We just have to make sure she runs and WINS!!!
True but they will put cookies on your machine.
I use firefox and do not allow facebook to put cookies on my machine. I also do not allow google either.
Go Sarah! We can win this if we just stay strong!
The cloture vote is coming with the GOP and Rat leadership seeing to it that Obama wins.
My original post was to point out that if you are not aware of facebook’s policy they will track you.
Hang tough. Call and write. We must get this done.
what a great photo and hopefully this is the times to come for all of the country to see
But instead they attack and (attempt to) belittle her. DC girly-men at their finest.
