Cruz center of Senate meltdown

Senate Majority Leader Cruz doing what a statesman does, LEADS!!

[Sgt_Schultze]

... and vote to end a filibuster of the omnibus spending package at 1 a.m. Sunday morning.

As usual, MSM trying to spread a lie about Cruz. Unless Cruz is currently the only one on the floor of the senate speaking, uninterrupted by others, or by votes, there is NO filibuster. What the hill rag is trying to do is confuse regular order of the senate with a filibuster. What will be voted on - why 60 votes is needed - is to stop debate - it is called cloture.

My Senator Lee is great. So is Cruz. Lead on. The usual BS of WDC creatures must be fought at all levels and always. I hope they bung-up these LIB/RINO idiots as long as possible.

[Moorings]

Cruz, Lee, and Sessions, the only ones actually working hard for their constituents and millions across the country, not just a bunch of empty campaign promises.

The rest have a Gruber view of us, and treat us as such.

I am glad for the purists and their purist supporters, who are not bought and paid for by the chamber of cronies. I am glad for the purists who desire to have high-caliber, effective representatives who go to DC to fulfill their campaign promises.

Thank you Lord Jesus for real men who are trying to save America from both the pagan communist democrats and their useless allies rinos and fools of America. The free nation may be dying, but men like Mr. Cruz refuse to throw in with the scum of D.C. and their unconstitional and evil ways and politics.

[Servant of the Cross]

Harvard Professor Alan Dershowitz calls Ted Cruz among the smartest students he ever had

[nomad]

Don`t think I`m on it but put me there. Can we help him? That man has balls of iron and an integrity that’s humbling, way to go Ted! Run for POTUS and you have my faithful support.

[Faith65]

You are fortunate then.

I am stuck in democratic h*ll for now. :(

[VRWC For Truth]

Cruz must be reading FR. Nancy Bonor and Harry McCornhole have got to go.

[hondact200]

I concur call Cruz and Lee. Say thank you. Lets just say these guys are probably the most hated in DC, because the put a monkey wrench in Reid’s and Obama’s plans. Oddly enough Obama calls the NFL the Good Ole Boys Club odd is that Senate is the Good Old Boys Club in which Obama is still part of. Notice Cruz does toe the line of the agenda

[Starboard]

Cruz questioned whether McConnell and Boehner are fully committed to battling Obama on immigration.

The Turtle and the Tippler are not the least bit committed to battling Obama on anything. They are political hacks that need to be thrown out of their respective "leadership" positions.

[sauropod]

Sen. Ted Cruz, the firebrand conservative freshman from Texas, has blown up the Senate leadership’s plans to have a peaceful weekend by forcing round-the-clock votes on President Obama’s nominees and the $1.1 trillion omnibus.

Awwwwwwwwww..... The Senate won't have a "peaceful weekend."

Poor babies.

[sauropod]

I agree. I will do that also.

[hal ogen]

Plan you escape. I was "living" in the LIB cesspool aka maryland (THE Freak state) for 30+ years. There is normality in America beyond LIB mental ward states. Escape while you can.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Honesty and integrity don’t belong in the same sentence with McConnell.

[Starboard]

He is becoming the Conscience of the Senate.

**************
He may get a little more help come January when the new senators arrive, but by and large the GOP is still not listening to the people who elected them.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

I like Ted.

[HomerBohn]

Cruz appears at present to be the one who is more of a true Conservative than the others.

I can’t for the life of me fathom idiots that comprise the Democrat/Communist party and a great share of the Republicrat Party. It’s as though they need a vigorous exorcism to drive Satan out.
