WASHINGTON, D.C. —U.S. Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) issued the following statement after voting against raising the debt ceiling.

“After five years of out-of-control White House spending, including a jobless, trillion-dollar stimulus, now is hardly the time to give the President carte blanche to continue his spending spree. I voted against raising the debt ceiling because we need sensible reforms to cut down on spending and restrain Washington going forward.”

The fraud voted for cloture...which means he gave Harry Reid the power of the purse.

But first... he voted for it.

This bastard needs to be retired. I won't vote for him in the primary, and I won't vote for him in the general election.

May as well have a democrat in that office.

He voted for cloture. This short article is purest claptrap and misdirection for the LIVers.

And I’d say he’s right since he keeps getting re-elected.

Yes. He was whipping GOP Yes votes for Reid. He nabbed 12 at the end of the day.

He voted “for” cloture as he did on Obamacare - show vote from a RINO in extremis.

Oldest trick in the book. Vote for cloture to get the Dems’ agenda to the floor and then vote against it to claim ‘conservatism’.

Texans, you know what to do.

Cornyn voted for cloture on ObamaCare then voted against the bill.

Cornyn voted for cloture on Amnesty then voted against the bill.

Cornyn = Weasel.

Cornyn voted to end Cruz’s filibuster. So Cornyn is lying.
I love the way Cruz put McConnell and Cornyn’s balls in a vice gripe
with his filibuster.

Hey Cornpone...

There’s this thing called the internet whereby we the people can circumvent your allies in the msm and we can actually see what you’re up to.

That’s right! We know what you did!

Pound sand Cornpone!
