Big Bird has been saved! Big Bird has been saved!He can delay one day and have the Obama arranged default blamed on him and Republicans, as well as the GOP surrender, or he can have just the GOP surrender. Not really a great set of choices.
time to reap the vote. take notes.
“I have nothing to gain from delaying this vote by one or two days,”
Spoken like a true self serving lawyer.
So the filibuster last month was just for publicity?
What a train wreck. Obama played these fools like a fiddle. In the end they were more concerned about reopening the monuments than stopping Obamacare. Idiots.
Yes, Ted is correct. The battle, though, has been enjoined. And the war against Obamugabe’s Death Panels has just begun.
The behavior of Obamugabe is NOT going unnoticed by America. He is incredibly unpopular.
Defund was a bad idea. Need to win 2014 and 2016 to truly get rid of this horrible law. Strength in numbers and we don’t have numbers. We have two MASSIVE roadblocks. Obama and Reid. Get rid of them, we win.
Wrong...blocking it means “default” and when a default didn’t happen the next day then the fear mongering would have been put to rest as far as the debt ceiling goes. Politicians are lying fools. I think the country is beyond being saved by switching which party controls the buraucracy. Soon you’ll be hearing how Hillary will be the end of the country so vote for (insert name here)for the block. No doubt everyone on this site will follow suit. Truth is, Cruz or Clinton. The trajectory won’t change.
“I shall return!”
Ted is not a quitter. He will continue the fight. His support will grow.
We need to focus on getting rid of Boehner and all of the other RINOs in their next primary. I will never again vote for anyone other than a true conservative like Cruz in the general election for President.
It’s a lot of wear and tear on his body to do that filibuster; it’s not healthy. He’s at least given 10-fold of what most Republicans might think about doing.
Maybe you haven't been keeping up on current events; but we just got our asses kicked, pal!
