“If the Republican leadership doesnt like the issues Im suggesting we fight on, perhaps they can pick something else, he said. We dont win any fights unless we actually engage in the fight, we pick the terrain to fight it, and then we go and take it to the people, and that is something the Republican leadership cannot fathom.
Sen. Ted Cruz
Agreed
The only mistake the Senator makes, in what you quote, is in leaving the quotation marks off of Republican “leadership.” A whipped cur with its tail between its legs, is not in any sense a leader.
I fear the Senate is being weighed in the balance...
Woe to America.
What a shock.
The Iranians get bombs and we get money to murder our children....
Prior to 2008 I I would've told you this is something that most people would never have gotten behind because they're either too lazy or afraid but we are living in much different times under the governance of a much more corrupt government than we've had in the past. Obama lied about everything he promised. He told everyone everything they wanted to hear and everyone that voted for him turned out to be suckers. He turned this country into a land of lawlessness and subjugated the masses to many nasty attacks against their own faith and their patriotism all the while calling them the terrorists. Well he forgot those "terrorists" are the ones funding his government. If he loses their funding the government has no money to operate on. It would not surprise me that if push came to shove this measure might need to be taken. The government has almost defunded itself anyway putting so many people out of work anyway and the 1% aren't going to pay anymre taxes; they're the ones stuffing "donations" in ther pockets for favors...
“what difference does it make who is in charge of Congress?
Uniparty rules.
Until President Cruz.
Come aboard! Cruz or lose!
Mitch Boehner to the base- “We tried, now we have to get back to giving Obama everything he wants”
There is a Budget. Congress passed a budget resolution for the first time in 4 years.
Furthermore, the Senate Appropriations committee passed all 12 appropriations bills out of committee for the first time in 6 years.
They’ve never been voted on by the full Senate because Red and Durbin won’t allow it.
Yeah, you read that right. Two dems are controlling the Senate.
Shameful that it’s on the same day as the Pope’s speech to congress.
Remind me again, why did we vote republican in the off
year election???
Keeping the F—King Government OPEN
is more important than protecting
the LIVES of “little people.”
Depends on how many of us are willing to show up to drag their sorry asses out. No permit, no permission, just show up for bear.
I guess we are to expect this to happen as long as Harry Reid controls the Senate.
McConnell is pro abortion. He voted to override Pres. GHW Bush’s veto of abortion funding way back in about 1990.
Who are the 8 republicans that voted with the Dems?
Great having the majority when the minority still control everything. What a joke the GOP is.
