My FR tagline is from a legal maxim,-- "It is better to suffer every wrong, than to consent to wrong."
Ted Cruz won't consent to wrong.
Good for Ted.
Good for Cruz....I’ve been asking this since Bonehead first announced he was leaving.
Why wait? Why not leave now?
Unless it’s to instill further destruction to the USofA.
That's what is going to happen.
Good for Cruz!!!
I love a MAN that stands up and says it like it is...Trump/Cruz 2016!!!!
He is a profile in courage.
Ted Cruz couldnt get anyone in the Senate to back him tonight as he tried to get a ban on Planned Parenthood funding and a linkage of the Iran Nuclear deal in a government funding bill. He stood alone on the Senate floor:
Cruzs amendment would place a one-year ban on federal funding for Planned Parenthood. It would also ban the Obama administration from using funds from the short-term bill to implement the Iran nuclear deal or any assessed contributions to the United Nations until lawmakers receive the side deals between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).The side deals have been a key point of contention among opponents of the deal. Cruz and House Republicans have suggested that the 60-day congressional review period for the Iran nuclear deal hasnt started because the administration hasnt given lawmakers the agreements.
After the procedural back-and-forth, Cruz slammed Republican leadership, suggesting they repeatedly surrender to President Obama.
You know, President Obama has negotiated a catastrophic nuclear deal with Iran. Republican leadership goes on television all the time and rightly says this is a catastrophic deal, he added. I would suggest that if we actually believed the words that are coming out of their mouths, then we should be willing to use any and all constitutional authorities.
After this Cruz launched into an hour speech, one that Mark Levin just tweeted out saying its a MUST LISTEN.
Here we go: Boehner wont rule out vote to raise the debt ceiling before stepping down as Speaker
There are 98 traitors in the Senate, and many more in the House. Give them all the Rosenberg treatment.

“Boehner could pick up the Senate-passed long-term highway bill [with Ex-Im reauthorization], add the debt limit and whatever other last-minute treats he can muster with substantial help from Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and her caucus and send the message more a Great Pumpkin than a Christmas tree back to the Senate...”
All the House RINOs have to do is vote for the rule and then vote against the bill and let the Dems pass it.
Like they always do.
Wait. I was told by rock ribbed conservative patriots that this was not possible since feet would be held to the fire.
I guess we have a lot of liars.
How about McConnell?
It’s going to be fun to see the entire GOP base turn on these sh*thead a**hole Republic*nts too.
Please, excuse my French.

“GTFO! NOW! But no hard feelings, brah. Mind the door springs.”
We need all the names of the people who did not support Cruz on this. They need to be named and eliminated from congress.
Did Boehner respond by giving Cruz another “obscene gesture”?
boom boom boom boom....he shot lil johnny right down...
while standing up for common sense!!
Go Ted!!
