Turban was an absolute failure!

[opentalk]

Cruz summarizing all the issues in one night is powerful...highlights how much propaganda is being used to sell/push this. Exposes the media, Obamacare as a job economy killer.

[AllAmericanGirl44]

I can relate, my internist left years ago, he saw the writing on the wall when the HMO crap hit the fan.

Haven’t had a doctor since. I’m a pay as I go girl. Not a great plan for sure, but I refuse to comply with this commiecare. Got it NSA?! GOOD!!

[Jane Long]

Dicky was trying to big dog it and he FAILED, miserably, up against the magnificent Ted Cruz!

[NFHale]

Roger that... preaching to the choir here, ma’am.

Our troops everywhere, all over the world, are doing their job; the LEAST these people in DC can do is do theirs and make sure there IS a home to come back to.

[conservative98]

Toomey is still a no show. Toomey needs to get to work.

[SE Mom]

AMEN.

[Nita Nupress]

Thanks for the analysis. As a Texan, I’m ready for secession, but i think there’ll be much conflict in the streets before we as a country get to that point. Myself, I’d just as soon see Jesus descending from the clouds and hear the trumpets sounding than have to live through what i think is headed our way. But i hear no trumpets and I’m not suicidal, so i suppose there’s no avoiding it. :-)

Hey, NSA: Jesus is watching you. :-)

[kjam22]

Yeah... he’s slamming Durbin again. Very successfully I might add.

[cowboyusa]

It's great to have not just fierce patriotic reaganite senators! More coming in 2014 and 2016!

[Marathoner]

Thanks. Living here in the People’s Marxist Republic of Illinois, we’ve had to put up with that turd for umpteen years.

[The Cajun]

Cruz just slapped down little Dicky Durbin again, love it!!

[KittenClaws]

It sure did! And I still have writers block.

In the words of some girl in some movie whose name I can’t remember...” I have no response to that” LOL!

[SE Mom]

It’s getting late into the evening..WHERE THE HELL ARE THE REST OF THE REPUBLICANS SENATORS????

[Ghost of SVR4]

Senator Cruz is truly a whistle blower of epic proportions with what he is doing tonight. This guy has balls and is putting some much deserved fire in Americans bellies that is LOOOOONG over due.

[SteveAustin]

I’m not talking about Lindsay Graham, although I’d like to see him voted out.

I am talking though about all those seats with squandered in 2010 and 2012 by running terrible but “pure” candidates. By all accounts we should hold the MO (Akin), DE (O’Donnell), IN (Mourdock) and NV (Sharon Angle) seats at a minimum.

In order to have a shot at derailing Obamacare, we always needed to hold both the Senate and House.

[Ghost of SVR4]

Just got back on the thread. WTF was Dickhead Durbin doing anyway?

Getting owned, hands down. He slunk away.

[MestaMachine]

toomey has been a bitter disappointment.

[crusty old prospector]

Congressman Louie Gohmert is in the gallery. Man, do we need him to primary Cornyn.
