Sen. Cruz: The Real Story of What Is Happening in Washington (Sep 28, 2015 – 59:47)
……… OR... “Mr Cruz Goes To Washington”

Ted Cruz couldn’t get anyone in the Senate to back him tonight as he tried to get a ban on Planned Parenthood funding and a linkage of the Iran Nuclear deal in a government funding bill. He stood alone on the Senate floor:
Cruz’s amendment would place a one-year ban on federal funding for Planned Parenthood. It would also ban the Obama administration from using funds from the short-term bill to implement the Iran nuclear deal or any “assessed contributions” to the United Nations until lawmakers receive the “side deals” between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

The “side deals” have been a key point of contention among opponents of the deal. Cruz and House Republicans have suggested that the 60-day congressional review period for the Iran nuclear deal hasn’t started because the administration hasn’t given lawmakers the agreements.

After the procedural back-and-forth, Cruz slammed Republican leadership, suggesting they repeatedly “surrender” to President Obama.

“You know, President Obama has negotiated a catastrophic nuclear deal with Iran. Republican leadership goes on television all the time and rightly says this is a catastrophic deal,” he added. “I would suggest that if we actually believed the words that are coming out of their mouths, then we should be willing to use any and all constitutional authorities.”

After this Cruz launched into an hour speech, one that Mark Levin just tweeted out saying it’s a MUST LISTEN.

Republican senators favor this.

Republican senators PAY for this.

Republican senators deserve to never hold office again.

It’s also why God is judging our nation. We have passed the point of no return.

Ben Carson remarked a couple of weeks ago words to the effect of with Obamacare in place who needs Planned Parenthood?

"Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre / mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað." "Will shall be the sterner, heart the keener; Spirit the greater as our might lessens."

The video’s are all just a fabrication according to the insane Nancy Pelosi.

“The video’s are all just a fabrication according to the insane Nancy Pelosi.”

Yes, and she never watched one of them. But they “must” be fabrications.

Despicable cowards in Washington.

Despicable.

They just keep upping the ante to see what if anything will shock an American conscience.

And the answer is, America’s conscience is fried. They could chop up babies on nationwide TV and most people would not bat an eye. That is proven. And their leaders will line up to pay for it. That is also proven.

I agree that we are under judgement. The wages of abandoning God is extinction. We can lose it all and never see it coming... and in fact we do see it coming and seem powerless to lift a finger to stop it. We can’t even fight for our own survival because we no longer see any point to it. And in our present condition, there isn’t much point to it.

Pray, work, and keep your families close.

It is SHAMEFUL that Cruz stands alone. What is wrong with our party??? I’ve long since given up on the democrats, but what in the crap is wrong with the GOP? Gutless weiners, all of but a few.

[MeshugeMikey]

Marijuana??? too much TV?? Generational Abuse??

[Reaper19]

Defunding PP and spending the same amount (or to really screw with the Dems, spending MORE) on other women’s clinics would be an easy victory for the Republicans, and they can’t even do that right.

“What is wrong with our party??? I’ve long since given up on the democrats, but what in the crap is wrong with the GOP?”

This is yet another reason why after being a Republican for decades, I am now an Independent. I can’t support them any longer. Been lied to, backstabbed, BS’d and crapped on by them until I had to walk away. Good luck trying to fix them. It isn’t working. It never will. It has to be scrapped and recreated, leaving the liberal butt kissing thugs outside.

[Squat]

I am wondering why the hell didn’t Congress just show the videos when Richards was up there lying? So the whole videos, all of them!

God is judging our nation because the evidence is piling up that you and I are members of a shrinking minority that even cares about this.

Shocking, nauseating, but apparently true.

[marron]

Remember when God said, if there are even a handful of righteous people left, I will stay my hand.

Then he got a look at what passed for righteous and all hell broke loose.
