Incredible!!!!!!!

Also, when I called Coburn’s office, they tried to spread the lie that Cruz voted for cloture. Exact quote “Did u know after his so-called filibuster, after wasting all that time, he then voted for cloture?” I called them on their lie and he admitted it but I kid you not, Senator Coburn and his staff is doing everything they can to make Cruz look bad. Straight-up lied...if I wasn’t a Freeper I would have fallen for the lie.

And the millionaires can afford lobbyists to get themselves a waiver. The people hurt by this are the working people - that is, the people who WANT to work - who are the backbone of the country.

I had a yelling match with one of Coburn’s Oklahoma City staffers this morning. Total jerk.

Coburn says he’s against continuing resolutions. So why the heck would he vote for cloture on a continuing resolution? If he’s truly against it because they’re supposed to pass a budget, then he should be a no-brainer for a NO vote on cloture.

I wonder what the NSA has on him.

The staffer in the Tulsa office was also very concerned with how it would “look” if the government shut down. He said, “you know we lost 15 seats in the House the last time there was a government shut down”. It was like he had these talking points all ready to go. They don’t like Cruz rocking the boat. How dare someone newly elected tell them how it is going to b done....that is their attitude.

I told the staffer to quit worrying about what the media is going to say, they hate you anyway.

And while people’s lives are being destroyed by this, they have the audacity to worry what it will LOOK LIKE if they actually do something to help real people?!!!

Jeesh, these are vain twits!

What nonsense! I think the GOP lost 7 House seats (retaining the majority) and *picked up* 2 Senate seats.

My congressman Todd Young has the delay bill ready and waiting with bi-partician support
He’s been working in the House while Coats works in the Senate.
They are not putting all their eggs in one basket as in the past
Plan B is ready and waiting


yep
Your senator just carried the ball.
Congratulations.
