When you find yourself on the same side as Obama, get your damn head examined.

I think I'll take mine over yours. It has more weight to it.

You do not line up with the Democrats (all of them except Obama), the Unions, and every other Progressive group and expect something good to come out of it.

The weight is the rocks.

A few have been implying that Cruz is influenced by outside business interests.

However, if we want to smear by innuendo, it is easier to do that with Jeff Sessions (a legislator I admire in the main.)

Sessions in his May 22 statement saying he won’t support the TPA because of the pending TPP quotes a Nucor Steel representative about Asian steel issues and its impact from that deal. Where does Nucor Steel have plants? How about four steel plants in ALABAMA. (That’s right, the same state Jeff Sessions represents)

There are a lot of other steel plants besides Nucor in Alabama as Alabama and Texas were the big gainers when the Pennsylvania rust belt old plants went cold forty five years ago.

So, if we want to talk about special interests of big business influencing votes, Sessions is more open to that question in the case of this vote than Cruz or Steve King.
