I want to see how many idiots blame Cruz and side with the RINO’s vote with the Democrats.

Me too, and Mike Lee’s as well.

If nothing else, for my own sanity I have to let them know they are deeply appreciated and respected.

Awesome photo of, perhaps, “light at the end of the tunnel”.

Nice.

Your expectation of failure is discouraging.

AND, I hate Bill O Reilly for his cheap shot at Ted Cruz tonight.

Isn't that the great pinnacle of morality and truth guy who settled a sexual harassment lawsuit rather than proving his innocence?

Kind of a poor guy to be throwing cheap shots :)

I imagine footsteps in the crisp night air walking along and seeing the lights on in OUR buildings...where fine patriots are defending our precious freedoms.

I believe that as well. I tweeted that to them both, that God had shed his grace on America today/tonight with these 2 men.

I’m totally engaged in what they are stating, it’s fascinating.

Wishing for you to feel better, I know that is not fun to deal with.

Nearing the 12-hour mark of @SenTedCruz’s discourse, only 1 member of the general public is in the Senate gallery. Oh, and @replouiegohmert

<...”They have the wisdom it will take to turn this around”....>

They are turning it...but regardless of what happens tomorrow...and throughout the weeks ahead...we’ve been spectacle to two amazing men speaking the language of the people....I have no doubt God Himself has moved them both to where they are at this time...

Remember Jesus was born at night and the whole event was from unexpected events and people....God works often as this...and because this was so unexpected and has touched so many...it will be more than interesting to see what comes of it all....two men front and center...and God.

Ted Cruz has already won.

He is pounding the Democrats and RINO’s. He scared the House leadership more than an impending election did and they passed a defunding bill, a flawed one for sure, but they did it- even though we all know they want to fund ObamaCare. They scurried like rats.

Ted Cruz won.

Ted Cruz has the party base more excited than the GOP “leaders” have ever had them in the last 5 years.

How is that a loss?

Cruz is setting the stage. No more excuses. The RINO’s who join the Democrats are to be targeted for primaries. They are not to be trusted ever again. This is the most unpopular law in recent memory, what is so hard about this for the Republican “leaders”. The reason is they are really Democrats.

This is win-win for Cruz. And for all of us.
