You're right.

McConnell and Cornyn because they have their own weasel bill!

I have that highlighted in red font in the email I got from Wicker the other day, which I posted on my thread the other day.

“Anyone who believed it got played like a fiddle.”

Sam Adams had this to say to you:

If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

What BS.

If you never begin the fight, how do you expect to win the war?

I'll mark this for you to be ashamed of yourself later.

even if that was true, it is still 1000x better than what Boehner, Cantor, McConnell, McCain and Graham have ever ever done for conservatism

They didn’t say, but they said they’d pass the message on.

Don’t listen to what they have to say, listen to how they squeal.

They’re frightened of this guy.

Cruz: How dare they! ...As time goes on there is more and more [a tendency for legislators] to view constituents as an annoyance....What a broken system...

Ted Cruz is MY president!

Let me start off by saying YOU are a DICK!

Now, let’s go down your BS list of crap, shall we?
I will summarize what will happen for everyone:

1. Cruz will pretend he is James Stewart in “Mr. Smith Goes to Washington”.
I don’t hear anyone pretending anything....if you can PROVE your crap, share it with a statement of fact.

2. He will talk for a few hours, and thken look exhausted and pained before the cameras. **** Taling for a few hours does tend to leave even superhumans like Ted exhausted...Perhaps you think you are so much better but again,,there’s no proof of that! So you want to disparage Ted ahead of time for being tired when he’s done? That’s just like Democrat. Maybe that’s really what you are.

3. He will then exit the Senate floor, go to the bathroom, and then seek out anyone with a microphone to claim what a hero he was. ***IN other words, you’re still a DICK!

4. The next day, he will be on Sean Hannity’s radio show; Sean will make love to him on the air, and Cruz will return the favor......You, sinking to new disgusting lows.

5. Reid strips out the ObamaCare provision (as predicted days and days ago), and the CR moves back to the House.......not because YOU did anything to try to stop it,,except stab a conservative in the back.....

As Michael Medved pointed out 2 weeks ago, this was all for show. Anyone who told you they could “De-Fund” ObamaCare when the GOP does not control the Senate or the White House was lying to you.

Anyone who believed it got played like a fiddle. ****Then count me as a fiddle,,because I love to echo the tune Ted is taking right now. At least he is trying something, which is more than I can say for YOU<<<DICK!

We hold these truths to be self evident!

Thank you, Sen Cruz for invoking our Declaration AND the Almighty, who endowed our freedoms.
