Ted Cruz Ping!

If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.

Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!

“We are going to have to convince people that we are not going to be perfect, but let’s at least move the ball down the field and try to do things many of us have wanted to do for a long time,” South Dakota’s John Thune, a member of Senate leadership, told the New York Times.

Awesome, start demoralizing your base and downgrading expectations before the election is even over. Brilliant.

Cruz has a well known reputation for hectoring Republican leaders, but he wants a political brand that has more general appeal.

Slugs Cruz, then reads his mind; what a writer!

Job one would probably be to get all the bills passed by the House that are being held up by the Dems into a vote in the Senate. That would be a good start.

Nothing except draw pictures of Obammy in Senate mens room.

Dear President Cruz,

Thank You

I wrote this on another thread, I thought the sentiments could be applied here:

The left has been successful at complaining about the "do-nothing" Congress. And yet in the last 4 years our Republicans in the House have passed 500 pieces of legislation that gets to the Senate where Harried Reid looks at them, sniffs and then hunts for a camera to complain about how the Republican House members are sitting on their hands.

With a Republican Senate, that bottleneck of bills will be laid at the door of the White House and if our side is smart we will make Hussein eat every one of them.

Whether or not he signs anything, we will need to scream to high heaven at how out of touch he is, how lame duck he is.

I personally believe that Hussein will not sign Republican bill, even when being forced to like Old Slick. Let the fact that he has a pen and he refuses to use it become his short term legacy.

"We saw small-bore leadership in the mid 2000s...."

Heh, heh, heh...

Same thing the GOP has been doing for the past six years. Kowtowing to hussein.

Yesterday romney was cheering and saying “now we’ll be able to pass amnesty”. What is their explanation again of how it will benefit our country? It defies reason and common sense. I’m not sure he isn’t trying to surpress the Republican vote and keep democrats in power.

If the GOPe even imagines that Cruz and the conservatives can gain control over the Senate, Jumping Jim Jeffords will not be alone. I imagine they will get Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins and maybe even Mark Kirk to make a fuss about joining the democrats and giving them the balance of power again. Remember, the GOPe RINOs fear/hate conservatives more than they hate democrats.
