There is nothing Ted Cruz can do to stop it in the Senate. Maybe postpone it for a few days but that is it. Go Ted.
No need to worry about that.
They're worse.
They're White Flag, Surrender Monkeys.
and I'm NOT referring to Senator's Cruz and Lee.
Don’t blame Cruz and Lee. They’re the only ones with any fight. Put the blame where it’s due: On the McCains and Grahams of Senate. These men are big-government Democrats, no more, no less.
Yep. I don’t like we caved at all, but we only gave them a few months and got income verification for Zerocare. Now let the health care sticker shock begin.

I support him more than ever!
I think this is disinformation. A lot of inaccurate reports (translation: lies) are coming out of the Beltway parasites and the NY liberal media.
Politico, The Hill and all the others are working overtime to ‘shape’ our views and opinions.
I should have written an email to each one of these congressmen and to Cruz explaining to them how the media is lying as there never was a threat to default. not raising the debt limit is actually a good thing but the media lied and says the USA will default if the debt ceiling is not raised. manufactured fake crisis by the media
No surprise here. follow and see how close I was:
Boehner's Shutdown End-game play (you won't like it) SOL of course | 10/15/2013 | sickoflibs
Not sure they can block it.
DU thanks you for your useless opinion.
LOL
Sure, but that would have already been the headline 3 weeks now if others things weren't in the news.
So now all the stories will be about getting back to work, fixing the backlog, mowing yards in parks, cleanup, etc.
If your gonna bring up the treat and shutdown .gov, you do it. You don't fold. These guys have done that, and now the White House is bringing up Amnesty again. Joy.
1 To cave to the dems everytime.
2. To throw there own overboard at the first sign of trouble.
To all of you blaming Ted Cruz, he has done is best. It will be WE who save it. He cannot save it by himself or should he. McConnell and the gop is to blame for caving. Not Cruz.
How exactly do you "dig out" from a hole? Moron.
Newbie please. Go back to Huff Post and piss off with your agitating.

RightwardHo is a stool pigeon of the left. Get this filth off of Free Republic.

Aside for Senators Mike Lee and Ted Cruz, nobody else paid more than lip service to fighting Obamacare. Worse, the overwhelming majority of Republicans in the Senate sabotaged the effort. One after another, they would go on TV and trash House Republicans and echo Harry Reids talking points. Reid and Obama just sat back and let Senate Republicans blow up their colleagues. Then in the eleventh hour, instead of at least demanding delay of the individual mandate (which McConnell touted months ago as the alternative to defund), McConnell gave Harry Reid everything he wanted.
FYI:
Rush Limbaugh is going to play that famous clip wherein Alan Dershowitz describes Ted Cruz as one of the smartest and the most principled law students to EVER have gone through Harvard.
