UI agreewith you SO MUCH! If HE can stay uo and fight for US,.,the least WE can do is be here with him!!

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

I want to see his head explode!

[luvie]

I just wish I didn’t have to get up early for work! I would, too. He makes it very easy to listen! :)

[grimalkin]

I am going to have a hard time getting to sleep tonight. This is the best TV in years.

This is what true conservativism is: sincere, just, and unapologetic. He's airing out the DC dirty laundry.

[TheOldLady]

My doctor quit at the first whiff of zer0care.

I miss him and have not been to the doctor since.

[NFHale]

My WWII Pacific Marine uncles and Army Airborne old man, were they still here, would probably NOT agree!!! Haha!!!

[MagUSNRET]

McCain needs medication! He is delusional, grandiosae, paranoid.......ERGO.........the dope needs to be voted OUT and he needs to be medicated!

[krunkygirl]

i have no TV and limited net connection;
i feel so deprived-—’cept for what’s posted,
i know none of what’s being said...

thanks for sharing -— would love to have seen
Senator Cruz slay Durbin!

[freedom1st]

Sen. Cruz is amazing. He's been talking on the Senate floor for eight hours, making a lot of sense, speaking without aahs and ohhs, no teleprompter, making Dick Durbin look like a fool, and is a great impromptu public speaker.

[caww]

Here's his daughters when he was reading them bedtimes stories at 8:00...precious isn't it...

[NFHale]

“...10 thouseand Marines to agree...”

Kinda puts the “OOOO” in “OOO Rah!”, don’t it? LOL!

[trubolotta]

Before government sucked every dollar out the economy that it can, private charities would take care of the rare Judy’s. ObamaCare would make everyone as poor as Judy so everyone must beg the federal government for health care. That is exactly what the libs want.

[Protect the Bill of Rights]

Woo-Hoo!! Calling them out for not being there!

[Viennacon]

Cruz bashing senators who are out at fundraising dinners. You go Ted!

[isthisnickcool]

I’ve been around McCain numerous times. He is crazy. Seriously demented.

[Unrepentant VN Vet]

If we cede healthcare to the government, we cede our very effin’ LIVES to the government.

Plus, and this is FAR more important to me, we also cede the lives of our children, grand children and great grandkids.

I'm up to a baker's dozen kids and grandkids now, so this nasty old sailor is ready to go back to war over this little deal.

...and considering that I'm still seeing stuff used that I used to teach, I think I can guarantee somebody a really interesting time....

[machogirl]

Good for him! Go Ted!

[RitaOK]

AMEN, momma! Ted is earning this.

(A little “Private Ryan” attribution, there.).

[Clint N. Suhks]

Ugh...C-SPIN put up filibuster records and Strom Thurman holds it 24+ hours.

Methinks Ted isn’t going to prevent a vote tomorrow. Too bad this isn’t Friday.

[KittenClaws]

Dick Dirtbag trying to match wits with Cruz is like a mosquito against a tank. Oh, here comes the fake victim who gets healthcare. Grab the crying towel.

What about the rest of Americans who are losing theirs?

____

Not only losing theirs, but still having to pay for deadbeats. My crying towel was laundered, folded, and put away in a dark closet a long time ago.
