WASHINGTON — Tennessee Republican Sen. Bob Corker called out fellow Republicans Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas and Sen. Mike Lee of Utah Thursday, accusing them of delaying a vote on the bill to fund the government and prevent a government shutdown to suit their own desires for publicity.

Cruz, earlier this week, held the floor for over 21 hours, speaking in defense of defunding Obamacare with that government funding bill. He asked other Republican senators to join him in voting against moving forward on a bill passed by the House, which would fund the government while defunding Obamacare

Cruz schooled Corker and made him look foolish (like he is). Hilarious, if it wasn’t so pathetic.

Makes one wonder what the heck is in Corker's NSA, FBI, and IRS files setting on Obama's desk. Corker is appearing to be terrified of Cruz.

It seems that Corker has developed a french accent.

Cruz needs to be the next ‘real’ President of the United States.

Corker, which is Seneca for “cork up his butt,” is just another reason why we NEED to rid ourselves of these fleas and ticks.

Let this fight begin. WE WILL PREVAIL.

And rinos like “cork up the butt” will be put in the trash heap of history.

Oh, and when we win this “struggle,” we WILL strip them of their damned “pensions.”

Certainly worth repeating!

Sent this message. Office was closed and phone message box was full as MOST of them are right now...

Senator Corker,
As senior citizens, and conservative Republicans, We personally APPLAUDED TED CRUZ and MIKE LEE for the fearless stand they made.
YOUR attack on them is wrong and shows you don’t “ get it” when it comes to true American Patriotism.
GOD BLESS TED CRUZ.”

Excellent message, pollywog!

I heard Corker say “Y’all” (if that’s how you spell it, Yankee here), doesn’t that prove he’s just a regular feller and not a country club RINO asshat who probably eats little cucumber sandwiches and golfs with Barbara Milkulski?

I would say I pity my TN compatriots such as FMDJ and Kaslin who have him and Lamar! for Senators but my 2 Senators are much worse!!

Still, what a pair TN has been cursed with. I sure hope Lamar’s primary challenger succeeds in taking him out next year. For Corker, we have a long wait.

I wished I would have suggested to my rep to run for the RINO’s seat in the 2012 as I am very pleased with her and have always been skeptical about Corker. I never felled he had my interest or the citizen of Montgomery County, TN in his mind

That is easy said if my RINO senator isn’t up until 2018 for reelection

God willing I am still alive in 2018 I also will not vote for that RINO again but I will not stay home. I pray we can find someone to replace him.
