I am so proud of Senator Cruz and I am very, very grateful to him. We need more of him!

Vitter came to the floor. I did not see Inhofe but I am thankful he’s signed on with the Good Guys.

“Groan....Rubio.”

Ad Guy:
he is helpin Cruz take a breather..... Rubio ain’t hurtin us right now......Ted is at Yankee stadium...Rubio is at some bowlin alley in Hialeah

ROFLOL!
~~~~~~~~~~~`

Is he there to spotlight himself and try to gain conservative brownie points from his amnesty debacle-—or is he there to put his mouth behind Cruz’ cause?

Call me a skeptic, but so far he sounds like he brought a prepared speech that is falling flat...

So far, tone-deaf... Hope he catches the wind Cruz in soaring on. At least he is there, giving Cruz a break, and for that alone I give him props.

Chambliss has nothing to lose from being a spineless coward. He’s retiring.

“I tried Cornyn a few minutes ago and got the message the phone voice mail is full! I sent him a *friendly* tweet.”

As a Texan, I was able to get through an hour ago. I left a voice message. The recording asks for your zip code. I told him my zip and pointed out I was a voting Texan. My message was polite but very firm.

I just saw a clip of earlier when Reid said that it wasn’t a filibuster becasue they were going to vote tomorrow, whatever. He had this smug, predatory grin as he said it, and I can’t think of anyone I’d like to beat up in a parking lot more. And no, I don’t care that he’s a senior citizen.

The GOP is on Facebook standing in support of Ted Cruz for doing this. If this is accurate, that means they have condemned McConnell, McCain and Graham over this.

Good!

When I got a call a few weeks ago "on behalf of Reince Priebus" I told them that they would not see another penny from me and I would be joining a third party unless they (1) ditched the "immigration reform" support and (2) defunded the obamacare. bill. Perhaps they're getting the same response far and wide.

Ripping off the veil is right. That's exactly what Cruz, Sessions and the guys are doing, today.

Watch Dingy shut the gov't down because the crybaby Socialists won't get their CommieCare funded. Pathetic.
