“I have somewhat of an issue with a “talking filibuster.” Are there other kinds?

They have a fake filibuster for Senators too lazy to do it right. Basically, 60 votes must be rounded up or they don’t vote.

Cruz actually is doing it the correct way.

I called Senator Cruz’s office in DC and left a voice mail thanking him for what he is doing and left my name and email.

Yeah sarge, it might end up being kabuki theatre.

I prefer that to secession.

Screw that. Read the Obamacare law.

Agreed! Then at least ONE Senator can say that they read the whole thing AND it will be on record AND there will be plenty of witnesses!!

GO CRUZ AND LEE!! Gonna have to send a phone call to Portman. May even call Sherrod Brown.

Sarah on Cavuto - He put it to her about running for prez in 2016. She danced around the question without answering.

I took her response as a positive - she will run in 2016.

I can't wait to see Sarah debate Hillary.
