So true. I have one lib on Facebook who is throwing everything but the kitchen sink at me for supporting Cruz. And then there’s the name calling.
I agree. It has also been a win to see some of our elected stand up and fight for us. It has made a huge difference for me and I assume many others.
I had all but given up on DC but this has given me back my hope. There are still some good people up there on the Hill. Very good and honorable people.

Good Morning!:) Answered prayer! He’s still speaking. Praise the Lord...:)
And Cruz is hammering RINOs who will vote for cloture and then tell their constituents that they voted against O-care. LIARS! And they KNOW it!
It would seem to be, that if Harry and his nary band of fools, does try to bring their issue up for a vote, they wouldn’t be able to, because Cruz is “filibustering”.
From Wikipedia:
A filibuster in the United States Senate usually refers to any dilatory or obstructive tactics used to prevent a measure from being brought to a vote. The most common form of filibuster occurs when a senator attempts to delay or entirely prevent a vote on a bill by extending the debate on the measure, but other dilatory tactics exist. The rules permit a senator, or a series of senators, to speak for as long as they wish and on any topic they choose, unless “three-fifths of the Senators duly chosen and sworn”[1] (usually 60 out of 100 senators) brings debate to a close by invoking cloture under Senate Rule XXII.
When are they going to rebel now? This usurper in our White House has violated EVERY restriction on his power and nobody does a dang thing about it. These guys have indicated that they know Obama is lawless. I sure hope that once the Obamacare issue is dealt with, they will move to impeach the traitor who is “fundamentally transforming” this country - by BREAKING EVERY DANG LAW IN THE BOOKS!!!!
‘Morning sistah!
Exactly.
When we see Warren Buffet AND AFL-CIO both against it strongly AND very publicly, the left ought to pay attention, but they are incapable of introspection. Truly.
This is what the sleeping giant needs to wake up and hear!
My senator is doing what I elected him to do.
lol, funny. I feel the same way - but, summer’s over.
Cruz is doing great - I’d be stammering, hooked up to a caffeine IV, and tooth picks holding my eye lids open.
Maybe your lib friend or O’Really can explain why the Senate is exempt from the law he has to follow?
How can a senator ram through funding, when only the House is allowed to do the funding?
You obviously don’t understand how fascism works.
Muslims are exempted too, correct?
Cruz is talking about Obama abdicating his 2nd Article responsibility to see to it that the laws are faithfully executed - is in fact seeing to it that the laws are NOT faithfully executed, with the exemptions and selective enforcement. At some point somebody has got to say that a man who violates the Constitution and fails in his duty is not fit to serve.
Okay, chilluns, back in an hour, I’ll be posting from the cube farm.
Yes, Muslims and Mennonites are exempt since they supposedly have their own Healthcare.
