LIVE Thread: Senate cloture vote. Guess the number of RINOs that vote to support "Dingy" Harry
C-span 2

Posted on 09/27/2013 6:59:01 AM PDT by ken5050

Senate just came into session. Happily, Dingy Harry is sparing us any commentary early on this morning, as is McConnell. Debate goes until 12:10, at which time there is 30 minutes reserved for majority and minority leaders , then the vote. Will there be any more GOP intramural fireworks on the senate floor?

Straying from topic but this is a busy thread, that’s why I decided to ask here.

Has anyone talked to Swampsniper since he came home Tues, I think it was? Just worried about him and hoping he’s doing well, that’s all. Thanks.

Yes we do. We need a good primary candidate to take on Lamar in 2014 also.

"I’m throwing a party when lindsey is put to pasture."

------------------------------>

I'll RSVP "aye" now.

We can have one of those virtual parties! Will save for SKYPE even tho you don't need it, you can just read along and post what you're doing for their New Year's Eve. "Still waiting for fireworks, "what food is being served", "who are your guests, "who would you like to have as a guest", did any guest have something to say that you could post, etc.

Squirrels, yes.

But, in a fun kind of squirrels. Kind of like any live thread here.

Like watching "24" with TV in plain site so you could post all through the whole episode.

I guess Twitchy (sic?) would work - so I better get up on Twitchy skills.

Instead of squirrels, we could go with tweets.

  Are You Going To Help Ted Cruz and Me?

Fellow Patriots,

Please help me! I am spending my afternoon making calls to Senators, but they need to be hearing from you, too.


Right now there are less than 19 hours until the Senate has the final cloture vote to defund Obamacare. 21 hours and 19 minutes is the amount of time Senator Ted Cruz stood on the Senate floor to filibuster and fight for the American people against Obamacare. Now, it is our turn to fight for ourselves, We The People, and to stand in support of Senator Ted Cruz!

Republican Leadership didn't only sell out conservative Senators when they decided not to stand with Senator Cruz, they sold out We The People, and we're mad as hell!

The next 19 hours are crucial, and Senator Ted Cruz needs YOUR help! Time is ticking, and we need more calls, tweets and Facebook messages NOW.

They must be told that by voting with Harry Reid and cloture, they will be giving up the fight to defund Obamacare. The passage of cloture will make it possible for Reid to add back in the Obamacare funding with only 51 votes - which he already has.

We need you to use all tools available to get all Republican Senators and Democrats on our team. They can stand with the people or stand with Harry Reid. Their choice.

Call each and every Senator listed below and do these three things.


1. Tell the Senators, A VOTE FOR CLOTURE IS A VOTE FOR OBAMACARE!

2. Ask them, if Obamacare is so wonderful, why are the President's administration, Members of Congress, and their staffs not subject to the same law? They are exempt from the same law to which you and I are subject.

3. Ask them how they will vote for cloture. Yes or No?


The final vote on cloture to defund Obamacare will take place Friday morning.

Time is running out, but it is not too late to save America from Obamacare.

Start the calls and forward to everyone you know.

Use the next 19 hours to melt the phone lines and make your voice heard!!

A VOTE FOR CLOTURE IS A VOTE TO FUND OBAMACARE!

You are with us, or you are against us.

 
The Tea Party Express is committed to do all that we can to make sure that Obamacare is both delayed and defunded. If you agree with us and would like us to continue our fight, please consider making a generous contribution today. Unfortunately, funding such a fight is not cheap and we are up against forces that have deep pockets.

Lol, yeah he’d be a perfect character for a western movie, or Louis L’Amour novel. This man is what true heroism is all about. He inspires others, as all true leaders do. You’d have to go way the way back to Reagan for a comparison.

too often they get away with boasting “Reelect me. I voted No on ObamaCare” and the treason stays covered up...

Maybe Boehner, McConnell and the rest of the Collaborators haven't heard of this newfangled thing called the "internet."

They'll find out all about it, the hard way.

Yep, I recall that but I haven’t seen him since. Pinged him to a photography thread yesterday but he never showed up. I guess I just want to know that he’s doing OK.

Arkansas has a couple big urban population centers.

Little Rock, etc.

Fayetteville is also growing.. and it is an extremely liberal place.
