"Any Republican who votes for cloture is voting to fund Obamacare."
ALEXANDRIA, VA — Today, the Senate Conservatives Fund (SCF) called on Senate Republicans to oppose cloture on Harry Reid's attempt to fund Obamacare with a simple majority.
SCF Executive Director, Matt Hoskins, made the following statement:
"Americans won a major victory today when the House passed legislation to fund the government without funding Obamacare, but now the debate shifts to the Senate where Harry Reid and the Democrats will try to fund Obamacare. The Democrats have a plan to fund Obamacare, but Republicans can stop it if they stick together.

Well said and correcto!
Torches and pitch forks at the ready!
The longest filibuster by a lone Senator went to Strum Thurmond, but evidently a team of Senators were able to filibuster for 57 days.

“Thurmond was not the only lawmaker to filibuster on the issue, however. According to Senate records, teams of senators consumed 57 days filibustering between March 26 and June 19, the day the Civil Rights Act of 1957 passed.”
Rove will be living on Fox News every chance he gets, stabbing us in the back.
The Republicans had better get off their lazy butts and fight back publicly.
Momentum is there to be had for the taking.
The bum in the White House has never been weaker.
If there's anything left to them, they need to follow Ted Cruz's example, FIGHT!
Going to be a long, tough, dirty fight against MSM, Rat and Rino lies.
Absolutely!
Scroll down and you'll find it. MAKE THESE CALLS!!
Tell them:
And Ted Cruz and Mike Lee will be right there to take the correct message straight to the people. And like Reagan, they have the ability to unite the people through the message of freedom vs socialism. Americans do not want socialist healthcare. Period. They do not want big government controlling their lives. Rove is a loser. The greedy bastard is in it for himself only, screw the constitution, screw liberty, screw the people. Well, I say screw Tokyo Rove, the big government propaganda artist.
And is subject to losing his seat in 2014.
Whoever funds it, owns it. It’s not that complicated.
Yes! Put pressure on Dems in the Senate (especially those up for re-election) to vote for or against Obamacare!
Come November 2014, anyone supporting this mess will be voted out as the impacts will really start to be felt!
Thanks....good idea!!! Kudos...your way!!!
WoW! So many GOPe who won’t pledge. Mine don’t surprise me. One calls us “hobbits” and the other has been stabbing us in the back since the day after he was elected.
Just for your info: I beat on these RINO deadbeats 24/7 and my Democrat Congress Critter Patrick Murphy, a truly low life Democrat. He cheated and beat Alan West. by a few hundred votes. However, he will lose big time in November, 2014!!!
Have done so with both of my senators. ;-)
Tried to leave a message with Sentator Cornyn, but his voice mailbox is full.
Well, I’m glad at least a lot of other people are leaving messages! I can’t believe he hasn’t pledged to hold the line. (Well, I can believe it but wish it wasn’t so.) I really thought several years ago that he was going to be a good conservative Senator. He sure has been a disappointment.
We know for certain that every Senator, regardless of party, understands the dire effects ObamaCare will have on Americans’ pocketbooks. That’s exactly why the Senators voted overwhelmingly to exempt themselves and their staffs from ObamaCare’s ravages.
So how can any of these same Senators now vote to inflict ObamaCare on their constituents, knowing from personal experience the anger and disgust, fear and loathing that’s likely to erupt from those constituents when they find out how negatively ObamaCare will affect them?

That needs to be asked of EVERY Senator!!
Call Corny's - and ANY other Rep w/a *full* mailbox - district offices...each office!!
So we are supposed to filibuster the bill that defunds obamacare, because if we don’t, after it goes to a vote Reid will add Obamacare funding.
But if the Senate passes no bill, the government shuts down. You have to let the Senate vote for SOME bill, or else nothing gets funded.
How do you plan to get a funding bill without obamcare, if you will block a vote on a funding bill without obamcare?
Do you think you can get an agreement with Reid on the final vote? You couldn’t trust him anyway.
