You really seem to have a problem with Paul. He could have been more forceful here. But I have some concerns about Cruz because I think his foreign policy is too neo-conish. I also want to hear his views on the fed.
That is the head of the progressive snake and it must be killed.
But it is good to have so many senators fighting for liberty. Next years elections will be so important.

You really seem to have a problem with Paul. Paul seems to have a problem with anyone that opposes amnesty. He has no been up front on this issue all along, he has flatly stated many times on FOX, that there is no chance of defunding ObamaCare, we should be prepared to accept less than all of the banana.
This Cloture vote is exactly the same method used to pass ObamaCare with the help of a couple traitorous witches from the East.
