	"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Ted Cruz Ping!

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

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

[Hostage]

Thank God for Ted Cruz!

[SWAMPSNIPER]

GO TED!

[P-Marlowe]

Ted Cruz did not go to Washington to make friends. He went there to make waves. God Bless this man!

[iontheball]

Cruz and Lee: Guts and brains, in that order. A potent combination.

[headstamp 2]

This is exactly what needs to be done. Point out exactly what a travesty this garbage legislation is from the standpoint of the middle-class. The people who have been getting absolutely hammered for the last 6 years.

Look for the media, RINO wing, corporate Democrats and its minions to try to destroy him.

[Faith65]

I see CRUZ and Lee and a couple others as our republics only hope.

I pray my hope is not misplaced.

[SharpRightTurn]

Cruz/Lee/Sessions bump.

At least 3% of the Senators are concerned about the American people.

[norwaypinesavage]

It appears that conservatives have at least one adult in congress. Cruz for President!

[FlingWingFlyer]

One thing about it, Senator Cruz isn’t going along with the rest of the sheep. He’s the REAL “maverick” in the Senate.

[mulligan]

Thank you Senator Cruz. Stand tall and stand fast. We need more American elected officials like you who love America more than they like power, pleasure and perks and place the health and good of our nation well down on their list of what is really important.

[eyeamok]

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.

[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.

Here’s a link to the list of senators direct phone numbers posted by RedMDer (thank you) last night- post #74

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.

[VRWC For Truth]

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

[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.

[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.
