"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

A “recession” would be the least of our problems.

Sen. Ted Cruz: We shouldn't be implementing ObamaCare when it could throw us into a recession

We shouldn't be implementing ObamaCare at all. Ever.

I get that this isn't the point of the headline or the article, but I'm sure Cruz gets that too.

Nothing much will happen until the Esteemed Sobber of the House Boehner steps down, or agrees to shut down the US Federal Government.

Until then The House RINOs will continue to be steam-rolled by Spendaholic B. Hussein Obama.

Don’t worry Mr. Cruz, it won’t set off a recession... because we’re already in one.

[Gaffer]

We never came out of ‘recession’...lies, confusion, obfuscation and subterfuge....any economist, hedge fund manager, government analyist, commercial analyst, banker et al all have a vested interest in getting rich or at least stemming the tide...they all lie. Go ahead, trade against computers, government insider bankers and companies that are privy to information you won’t ever see. See where it gets you.

Finally, the voice of Reason is heard in the halls of Capitol Hill.

It has been a while since we last heard it.
