Cruz brought the ugly truth about Obamacare to light.
Harry Reid is wrong 100% of the time. He's a statistical oddity. I wonder if his system would reject him if he ever spoke that wasn't a lie.
Proven Federal Fact: The only way to balance the US Federal Spending and Income within the next two years is to execute this two step process:
1.) DEFUND Obamacare in 2013; and
2.) ABOLISH Obamacare, Democratcare, and Republicancare in the first month of 2014.

BTW US Congress men and women, failure to do BOTH of these timely steps will insure that your replacements will gladly do it for you.
It is all about the money, stupid - - - OUR taxpayer money!
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, tick
3) IMPEACH the bastard!!!
He never says ‘what’s next’
Right now:
Contact your Representative and say you won’t accept Boehner letting a few RINOs (or ‘Moderates” if you want to be extremely polite) join the dems to fund it.
Won’t accept a “show vote” funding of Obamacare like the Senate is doing.
Next step? Fight and get solidly on record as being against it, then move in after the Uniparty forces it through in favor of whomever tit is they are working for
Then, while they’re at it, get rid of the parent of obamacare, LBJs Medicare, which the GOP should’ve blocked in 1965
I lken Harry Reid to Darth Vader following his evil emporer’s vile desires without Episodes 1 - 3 howing him as a once upon a time decent person

...how about when the CR comes to the House w/ OC stripped out, just put it back in and send it back to Dingy Harry, tell him to take it or leave it.
... go to whatever media available and make it clear that if the govt shuts down, Dingy & Barry did it.
Yeah. And raise the stakes. Gut the CR of all funding for Planned Parenthood.
RE: He never says whats next
I don’t think we really know the answer... but let’s see what the cause and effect will be...
1) Continue stubbornly sending CR’s that fund the government but defunds Obamacare. This will eventually result in a shutdown.
2) If a shutdown were to occur, AVERT IT by continuing to send CR’s that SPECIFICALLY MENTION and FUNDS those politically self-defeating items in danger of shutting down (e.g. veterans benefits, parks, civilian employees in danger of furloagh, etc. ) but still defunds Obamacare.
3) Send a CR that does not defund Obamacare but compromises with a DELAY of the individual mandate.
Maybe you or others can propose ideas that are not among the above 3 alternatives....
Well, how about this....
Once the demand to open non-essential government services reaches a fever pitch, the GOP (who have no incentive to extend the shutdown) can simply say, “Great, let’s hammer out a deal and reopen government.”
Once Obama’s party comes to the table, the GOP will have won, because any negotiations will mean repealing, delaying, and/or de-funding ObamaCare — not a 100% repeal/delay/defund, but something higher than 0%.
Certainly the Democrats will realize that negotiation will mean giving away some of their precious domestic “achievement,” and thus they will resist coming to the bargaining table. But Obama, Reid, et al. will be trapped by their own rhetoric. If the shutdown is so bad, and the GOP want to end it, then the pressure to negotiate a deal becomes more and more intense.
Convince people that the people who voted to fund 90% of the government have already compromised and the ones who say All or Nothing are the obstructionists who are shutting down government.
Stay firm with the DEFUND demand. Stay firm in the plan to continue funding government EXCEPT OBAMACARE.
Here’s how a scenario might play out...
When Obama demagogues Republicans for “shutting down the government,” Republicans should tell the pundits and the public, at every opportunity, that their CR does, in fact, fund the entire federal government, EXCEPT OBAMACARE.
If Obama threatens to default on the federal debt, the House should immediately pass and send to the Senate a bill appropriating the funds to pay the debt and no more.
And if the Senate refuses to pass it or the president refuses to sign it, Republicans should demand that Harry Reid and/or Barack Obama explain why.
If the president lays off, say, thousands of postal workers, the House should immediately appropriate the funds to hire them back BUT NOT FUND OBAMACARE, and if the Senate refuses...well, you get the idea.
Whatever Obama threatens to “shut down,” immediately appropriate the funds to prevent the “shutdown.” EXCEPT OBAMACARE.
Civil War in the Republican Party.
We need to determine whether Conservatism can win there, or if Republicans will always be Democrats in Sheep’s clothing.
What’s next in one sentence:
Whatever Obama or the Dems threaten to shut down, immediately appropriate the funds to prevent the shutdown. EXCEPT OBAMACARE.
