It is just like Mr. Smith Goes to Washington.

Cornhole is lining up to bash Cruz. Blather, blather, blather. Twist and spindle the words...

Deadlines? When have these jackasses ever worried about deadlines?

He is pathological... he can’t do anything but lie.

He is obfuscating and twisting the truth.

It seems to me, the bigger issue is that the rest of the Senators are saying that it is OK for them to lie, they always have lied, and they want to continue lying without being called on it! (they can all GTH!)

Yeah, saying what Cruz wants to do will raise taxes on everyone ... a pathetic attempt. ... Also, mcconnell didn’t lie (according to Cornyn)

Hatch says no bickering, Alexander says, not nice to overrule the chair, Cornyn says the majority in the Senate will have what it wants.

How pitiful... they can’t even show up for work. Almost an empty chamber.

I hate politicians... they need to all be eliminated.

I don’t trust McConnell or any gop leadership.

I think McConnell and other gop leaders are just playing to the media and trying to make themselves look like they are doing something.

Think what Cruz said just this week about McConnell lying and also this from Cruzs book.

Cruz on leadership corruption and sellout......

That Tuesday lunch began with our leadership saying, “We’re asking every Republican senator here, to affirmatively consent to lower the threshold for Harry Reid to take up the debt ceiling, from 60 votes to 50 votes. And we were told, everyone of you should agree for two reasons.

Number one, if we do this, it will happen, and hallelujah, hallelujah, that’s what we want. We want trillions more in debt with no spending reforms, because we’re scared of this issue. We don’t want to have a political fight on this.

But number two, if we do this, the Democrats will have the votes to do it on their own, which means all of us Republicans can vote no. And we can go home and tell our constituents, we opposed the thing we just consented to allow happen.

Now, I was sitting there — to be honest, I hadn’t gone to lunch intending to pick a fight, but as I listened to that, I was astonished and I raised my hand, and I said, “There’s no universe in which I can consent to doing that. I spent two years campaigning across Texas, telling Texas, if you elect me, I’ll fight with every breath in my body to stop the out of control spending and debt that are bankrupting our kids and grandkids.”

If were to do that, I think it would be both dishonest and unfaithful to the men and women who elected me.

They have done just about what my wife said they would... they all but ignored Cruz and slammed him to the ground.

Don’t give up boy! Stay courageous. We are supporting you as best we can. If you feel that all the world is against you it is just your fellows in the crooked senate... and not many of us people who are being raped by your colleagues.

Ted Cruz said... “I entirely agree” with Hatch’s call for civility...But said “speaking the truth” is “entirely consistent with civility.”

These schmucks have to have a sunday session? Why? They don’t honor the day of rest.
Highly doubtful the founders would hold sunday senate sessions unless for emergencies.
