Cruz really stared down the Unions, courage indeed.

It did indeed.

And it took tremendous cowardice for voters to stand and defend Mitch against conservative and even DEMOCRAT rivals for his job, and work to get him elected after he told them to their faces he would work with Barry if elected.

I’m listening to Cruz over and over and over on this. His reversal on TPA... for it than against it... dropped my opinion of him quite a lot. Better to argue for something strongly and stick with it than to reverse with some lame excuse.

Now, I think we may be hearing the truth about why he reversed his position.

We may actually be seeing another profile in courage.

On my knees, Dear Lord I pray for the strength, honesty, conviction, character and safety of this young man...

Not since my last vote for Reagan in 84’ have I been proud of the vote I cast. I voted for Ted Cruz as my Senator and he is doing precisely what I elected him to do.

Hear Hear! Ted’s the one. Not that some of the others aren’t interesting, but Ted hits the mark time after time.

Thank you for posting this. I really believe that Ted Cruz doesn’t plan on a long Senatorial carrer!

“to which we may now all add: The way Ted Cruz sticks to his principals, even in defiance of his own party and its leaders, is a profile in courage. G-d Bless him and guide him on a successful path to the White House.”

Not to quibble too much, but this ISN’T the first time he has fought leadership. He’s been fighting it since day one, if you remember the defund Obamacare fight.

Lies in the Senate? What a surprise. With the possible - stressed, “possible” - exception of the State Department - the Senate is the filthiest institution of American government.

Then of course I’m forgetting too, the øbama White House....

Ted demonstrates that he has presidential temperament, he comes from a family of heart-felt values, he is lauded by Allan Dershiwtz as an excellent student and one of the best debaters he has ever had as a student. By all appearances he is courageous, principled and without guile. He is the real deal and in my opinion the best candidate we have seen for decades.

No disagreement there, but if you’ve watched today’s proceedings, you see that he pulled out all the stops and proved that any previous defiance was not a one-off or flash-in-the-pan kind of thing. Cruz is the Real Deal.

No surprise about lies in the Senate here. What is surprising, in the most refreshing way, is a Senator who is not afraid to plainly speak the truth about the lies.

Excellent. I made another one today, just because of that speech.
