Whatever happens, it’s nice to know that there is at least one person in Congress, even though she’s a Democrat, who cares enough about the American people to make a commotion, even risk shutting down the government, in order to try to prevent a budget being passed that would force American taxpayers to spend billions of dollars to bail out Wall Street again.
Last year, there was also such a person, a Republican — Ted Cruz — who was willing to shut down the government in order to try to save the American people from the sufferings of ObamaCare. But where is Ted today? Rejecting the budget would also save Americans from ObamaCare by refusing to fund it.
Unlike Elizabeth Warren, who could not be silenced by Harry and Nancy, Ted Cruz seems to have been lobotomized by John Boehner and Mitch McConnell over the past year into becoming a good soldier of their RINO realm. Very sad.
He called the them out repeatedly last and this week to keep their word that they campaigned on. He also has met with Conservative members of the house. Why should he be the lightning rod on killing this bill if the Rats want to?
