I think the fact that it’s making heads spin on one side of the aisle, and drawing attention to it in the news media is the point of the whole thing.

Senator Cruz is bringing attention to it that can’t be ignored, and people who are waking up are now able to see the monstrosity of this disaster for what it is.

I applaud the guy. The House stepped up and did their job, and the Senator is doing what he said he would do. He’s keeping his word.

And friend, that is a RARE thing these days, and we should support and applaud a Statesman when he actually ACTS like a Statesman.

Yes, I agree. I think that Cruz did the right thing here, but my comment that this was not technically a filibuster was only responding to another poster about whether this was a filibuster or not under the Senate rules.
