Now slamming senators who didn’t do town halls and dodged constituents. That’s Linseed Gayham!

I cannot even IMAGINE one Democrat able to stand in the Senate and speak off the cuff the way Cruz and Paul have done.

I just got through to Cornyn’s DC office and I was able to leave a stern message. I did forget to leave my Texas zip code, darn it!

Rand ax’d the question to Cruz so Cruz could kill any compromise...it was straight man/ home run hitter BY DESIGN.....Cruz’ answer cleared that up if ya listened

Good call. That is the way I saw it too. Actually, Paul made some good points setting up the question.

I’d like to see him just start reading the damned ACA law. We’d be singing Christmas carols before he was finished!

They may get to that yet, but Cruz and team on such an articulate and impassioned roll as is-—citizens need to hear this...and happy to see the “best of” on YouTube -— brought here to this thread courtesy of WhenIfHow (A big thanks WIH!)

If the House does not fund it, it cannot be funded and the senate can pound sand. If it takes all year, that’s fine. The people will elect a new Republican controlled senate in Nov 2014.

Jim how many besides me and you believe this? It pains me that not one talking head on FOX, Hannity being the exception that seem to understand this. I watched Runt Paul just a few minutes ago try to pressure Cruz into admitting that defunding is not going to happen, so would he be willing to accept some compromises. Ted pointed out to him that he would not but understood that some might think that they should. He also pointed out that once they give in to a vote there would be no compromise possible because they would have everything they wanted already.

Paul shrunk an awful lot in the last couple weeks, and has earned the new nickname "Runt."

The massive point that the government employees and significantly the elected vermin are exempting themselves from this evil socialist plan needs to be repeated in any way it can be done. The American sheeple need to see the democrats have made themselves the oligarchical rulers over peons who vote.

Someone said Cspan2, but I couldn’t get the channel to work on my TV. I’m watching/listening to the live feed online.
