Cruz Control

I love Ted Cruz (R/Bellvue). He has simplified the explanation of what is wrong with the Tebagger wing of the GOP. His Darth-Vader-impersonations, Dr. Seuss-readings, and inevitable Nazi comparisons during his fake filibuster were more fun than a barrel of flying monkeys, and were useful to both political parties.

We should all thank him for doing the impossible – convincing the rest of the House Neocons to abandon their fruitless quest to overturn the Affordable Care Act and/or shut down the government.

Fellow Teabaggers consider him a traitor for so quickly admitting his risky scheme had zero chance of success in the Senate just as the Tetley set rushed to line up in full support his loony legislation. And it’s true, he threw the whole soggy lot into the harbor in an eye-blink. (Bless his black little heart).

But he’s also tossed a life preserver to House leaders Bohener and Cantor, who needed a nutcase to serve as a poster boy for idiocy of the extremists in their party to rally the more “mainstream” Republicans behind a more sensible solution to the current funding crisis.

For them, Cruz was a walking, talking, “I’m With Stupid” tee shirt.

In case you’ve beeaway from the telescreens over the last few days, Salon described Cruz’ floor show this way:

Thanks to Majority Leader Harry Reid, Cruz was given 21 hours in which to pretend to “filibuster” a Continuing Resolution until it was time for a cloture vote that Cruz has known all along that he would be unable to delay or block.

This is the guy who said this concerning Ted Cruz maybe its time for the Secret Service to visit him?

"And wing nut radio host Mark Levin or Levin said yesterday, the Republican leader in the Senate, Mitch McConnell, just stabbed Ted Cruz and Mike Lee in the back! Oh, what if that were true? Oh my God, oh my God! Mitch! I tell you what! I'll make you a deal! I'll provide the butcher knife," -Mike Alloy

His blog has no comments he is so popular I suppose so I figure we can help him with his popularity deficit.

[JLAGRAYFOX]

Answer this nutcase Obamabot!!! He is really fried toast!!!! How???? Simple!!!

WWW.DONTFUNDOBAMACARE.COM......Two or three million signatures can send him a message he might, I said, he might unstand when he becomes unstoned!!!

[Olog-hai]

It’s got one comment now . . . a LOFAN type from LA says he would have “guessed (the photo of Cruz was of) Boy George” had it not been captioned. (Is that homophobia??)

[Heart of Georgia]

I suppose it’s okay to publish an article with misspelled words and claim someone else is the stupid one.

[onyx]

This cheap shot asshat can go straight to Hell.

[Maelstorm]

That is a feature of the leftist mind I think. Its like the freaks calling the teapot wacko.

[txrefugee]

My guess is that he is an unemployed homosexual with a very limited future. And he’s getting a government check of some kind. No one with such limited intellect and communication skills could get a real pay check.

[Heart of Georgia]

I noticed he used the ancient worn out phrase “risky scheme.”

Maybe it’s that fraud, algore. He thinks we’re all stupid.

[Grampa Dave]

Cruz has the rabid gay mediots out in full scream. That is enough to support Cruz and his fellow Cruzites.

[Maelstorm]

Looks like he managed to reproduce. :-)

[alstewartfan]

Mr. Malloy seems to be a fellow who knows an awful lot about “teabagging”.

[spawn44]

He does, he was rubbing his on Harry’s leg during the who speech given by Cruz

MAKE DC LISTEN: TELL YOUR SENATORS TO OPPOSE CLOTURE ON H.J. RES 59
We must oppose cloture on H. J. Res. 59, so that Harry Reid and Senate Democrats cannot sneak in funding for Obamacare. We need you to call your Senators right now: tell them to oppose cloture on H.J. Res 59 and remind them that a vote for cloture IS a for funding Obamacare.

[Constitutionalist Conservative]

Since their favorite epithet for the Tea Party is a sexual vulgarity, is it okay to talk about Malloy and co. belonging to the “pedophile wing” of the Democrat party?

[freedom462]

I love Cruz’s principles, and everything he said during the filibuster was dead accurate. But is there any way go gauge how effective Cruz’s filibuster was? Can we show how it was more productive than, say, Wendy Davis’s filibuster iN Texas? if we could demonstrate that Cruz was more effective, that would help us decimate the MSM spin on this.
