Imagine...just imagine if Corker the Clown took on Obamugabe with the same vitriol as he did Cruz!!Hey Corker staffers...if you're trolling here, tell him what I said.

Does the article say how Corker responded??

$100M in federal tax dollars for Detroit?”
Well, that should last them about a week. Of course most of the people that voted for CC probably don’t have kids in the public school system anyway so they don’t care. Just one of the most horrible educational systems ever imposed on kids.
God help us all.

Leftists tend to want to follow “saviors” so they don’t have to think.
Conservatives are more independent.

I read that Corker gave money to Al Gore, I haven’t been able to find it documented or the facts surrounding it though.

If the Senate votes for cloture tomorrow and the House Republicans go along with the new Democrat bill complete with Obamacare funding, the GOP is done next year. I’ve been saying for months now that the Dems will have over 60 Senate seats and 240 House seats after the 2014 election. Conservatives who have been paying attention are physically sickened by the power brokers in the GOP; we want to see a lot of these politicians out on the streets come 2014.
I don’t think you could have ever imagined such a large collection of incompetent back scratchers as 80% of GOP politicians are today. The Democrats are worse, yes, but the GOPs betrayal of its base is political genocide. The games they play with the complete goal of simply winning elections is very clear to see.
It’s also clear to see that the Number 1 plank in the GOP party platform is to keep the government funding and to prevent a govt. shutdown from ever happening; all because becoming re-elected is the only thing, for them.

You want the American people and the outside groups that youve been in contact with to be able to watch us tomorrow, an angry Corker charged on the floor. The reason were waiting is that yall have sent out releases and emails and you want everybody to be able to watch. And it just doesnt seem to me that thats in our nations interest. This tells me all I need to know about Corker. I dont give a damn how conservative Corker claims to be. He doesnt want the peons to see how our betters in government make the sausage that they intend to shove up our a$$. Arrogant POS.

If the Republicans were to take the Senate, would a few of these Senators like McCain, Corker and such flip and hand it back to the Democrats?

Yet Corker understands that climate change is a problem and has called for legislation to address it. In 2007, he traveled to Greenland with a bipartisan group of senators to observe the impacts of climate change, noting upon his return that the U.S. has a unique opportunity to marry concerns
like carbon dioxide emissions and energy security. He said he was leaning in the direction of supporting a carbon-trading program. Lately Corker has been insisting that he wont accept anything short of a climate plan that auctions 100 percent of pollution permits and returns the money directly to Americans, and his preferred approach would be a carbon tax. Amazing! Gore talks and his lips never move. Corker is a RINO's RINO. He's pushed the DEMs agenda about as much as McCain has. Both he and Lamoderate are my senators unfortunately. My last vote for LaModerate was governor. I never voted for Corker either.
Last election when Corker was up I voted for the DEM {Clayton} and yes I'm dead serious. The DEM was miles more a conservative than Corker and deserved the vote.

From what I’ve been reading around the net, he’s very moderate...VERY. So much so that the lefty types defend him, it was a lefty or global warming type that said he donated to AlGore.

Lenard and Poskevich, both tea-party candidates, appear to be the only opponents to Corker who are serious about running. Corker won in 2012 when we had two challengers in the primary - stupid x infinity. Not gonna make that mistake when we primary Lamar!

I know we can’t get them removed from office, but can we get the likes of these RINOs tossed out of the party? Even if just symbolically?

"We did that in Indiana with old Lugar and got an Obama supporter in the general for 6 long years." Does your new senator at least actually live in the state he claims to represent?

Yeah Obama Joe has been a Hoosier since his Notre Dame days.
He’s another “fake Catholic” Democrat.
