So the question of the day is: "Will Boehner grow a pair?"
The GOP cave will start in 10, 9, 8...
Ted Cruz knows the rules. The rules are thick, cobwebby and arcane. Some of these may be left over parliamentary procedures from British influence. So even today, having a full moral belief in what you’re trying to do is not enough. One needs to be well acquainted with the rules, so you don’t do waste time on unwinnable causes brought to the floor in an incorrect manner. Maybe some of the ‘cobwebs’ are needed to reduce frivolous legislation, reduce, not eliminate.
Here is one aspect that the Ted Cruz filibuster has accomplished:
It has established Ted Cruz as the spokesman for the Republican party on Obamacare. It has taken that role away from McCain/McConnell/Boehner.
The MSM cannot possibly provide a credible news story without including Ted Cruz’s opinion.
Cruz has really laid bare the true nature of the bottom feeders and paltroons in the GOP. Having been so identified maybe we can now eradicate them & send them back home where they can wallow with the rest of us in the sewer they helped create.
Sorry Cruz, you have fought gallantly and showed what a leader with a spine is supposed to look like, but that simply way, WAY too big of an IF there for us to be able to count on it.
Amen. And that’s the truth. The founders set it up this way for the specific purpose of thwarting an out of control chief executive and senate. They were very wise men. If only our people’s representatives in the house have the courage to carry out their constitutional duty to save the republic with the constitutional powers provided.
Prayers up!
Once again Senator Cruz is spot on!!!!!!!!
It's not about the futility of an eventual Obama veto.
They are against blocking cloture because they don't want to put the pressure on their Democrat friends in Red States to vote against their party.
McConnell, McCain, and Cornyn are in it to protect the Democrats from difficult votes.

IF.
I say fight the good fight. Push hard to defund. But recognize that our allies in the House have spines of jelly. They don’t have the intestinal fortitude to walk away from the table and tell the Senate and dear leader to go eff themselves.
Mcconnelcare is a nation killer. It’s just that simple. If delay is what we ultimately get, then it’s a reprieve. More time to make the case that it’s a complete disaster. Delay it again. Delay it till hell freezes over.
Senator Cruz will be destroyed, just like Sarah Palin was. He is too big a threat to the Dems and he makes the Repubs look bad.
If only we had more like him!!
They won't. May Cuban medical care be upon them.
Sen. Ted Cruz did his part heroically!
BUT now it’s us to us to call our congresscritters, as well as our senators, and tell them to DEFUND, and tell senators to vote NO! for cloture.
