Cruz: “Pick a position, and stand by your beliefs.”

Now THERE’S a novel concept!

Cruz thanked the Reps who are there. He asked “where is the Senate?” Crazy. Cowards.

“...Puss filled boils need to be lanced - its a matter of health care...”

Just like gonorrhea and syphilis... there will always be liberals.

What is happening is like the great movie BRAVE HEART!!! We have a leader screaming “FREEDOM”. I am Irish and I am the crazy Irishman. This is the battlefield with the Rinos and socialists coming across the field . We see Brave-hart riding across our lines . We see Senator Cruz showing his ass to the enemy. We have rallied and are ready to slaughter the enemy politically. “Hold Hold Hold -— Charge” DEFUND OBAMACARE!!!@

Lee left briefly for an interview I believe, to get the word out.

I hear Cruz just a few minutes ago say we have 3 senators and 3 house members.
I assume Lee is one of those senators, the other two likely being perhaps Vitter and Rubio.
I can’t imagine the other 2 House members in attendance are Dems.

Louis is one the great ones in the House.

Cruz is reminding the senators you can’t hand Harry Reid the vote for cloture and say you want to defund obamacare. He’s laying it out the games that they are playing.
(IOW, they are liars when they run their ads saying they voted to defund obamacare)

“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. “

You’re welcome. One of the real problems that I’ll have in arguing against secession is that it plainly makes a lot of sense on a lot of dimensions. It’s not something where you can just spit out a list of reasons why Texas or another state shouldn’t pick up their marbles and leave. My argument against boils down to one really big reason and a few not so big reasons.

And since I promised not to argue with Texans over secession tonite, I’m going to go to bed. God bless.

Cruz just took it to the GOPe!

“If you vote to let Reid pass this with 51 votes, you’re voting for Obamacare, and your constituents WILL know about it”

“... hope you stay up to watch all of this...”

Working on it. My 4:45am wake up call tomorrow is sounding really, really awful right now... as a matter of fact, the one from THIS morning ain’t doin’ so hot either, hahah!!!

How’s things by you? Any noise from our favorite Expat lately? And where’s “our crew” - wku man; windflier; and DuncanWaring? Marcella is here, though! Gonna ping them and bring them to this Epic talk.

The Good Senator is doing us all proud.
