Put a cork in it!
Still doesn’t look good from the perspective of conservatives, indeed from the perspective of anyone who wants American liberties to survive. The statist leftists are doing backflips celebrating while watching this. I don’t see anything to praise about the fact that traditional conservatives cannot get themselves united as militant leftists can.
Manchin is the only breakaway.
We have an entire safari of RINOS in the senate.
Proven Federal Fact: The only way to balance the US Federal Spending and Income within the next two years is to execute this two step process:
1.) DEFUND Obamacare in 2013; and
2.) ABOLISH Obamacare, Democratcare, and Republicancare in the first month of 2014.

Cruz is the only guy in years who has had the brass ones to do something as bold as what he did on the floor of the Senate.
It wasn’t a historic event, except that it was the first time in years that a Republican actually stood up and took a stand nobody could mischaracterize as really the Democrat position anyway.
It was bold. It was crystal clear. It focused light on the issue. I set him (and the Republican party too, if it would only grasp and accept and think him for it) apart. It said, this is what I think. This is what the right path is. My path is different, and I will stick to my guns.
Refreshing.
So what do the Republitards do? (And I’m sorry folks, but I don’t know how else to address it. Some of you won’t like that term, but it expresses exactly what needs to be said here.) They fault Cruz on style, on posturing, on non conformance, on lack of cordiality.
Seriously? We’ve got the first chance at taking on the Democrats head on, and so the carping begins.
We have all the unity of 500 cats in a five by five foot room and six mice between them.
The Republican party is the party that couldn’t shoot straight. It should be played by Don Knotts. It’s theme song should be ‘the Old Gray Mare Ain’t What She Used to Be’. It’s symbol should be the pink submarine. It’s mascot should be a skunk. It’s embarrassing when folks ask me what party I’m in. They don’t even bother to debate it with you. They just laugh. And deep inside, you know they should be laughing.
We’ve run Dole, Bush, Bush, McCAin, and Romney. Hell, I’m laughing, when I’m not crying.
Cruz was brilliant. He was so brilliant the party knows not what to do. He has garnered the party tons of support, and the leadership is to fricken stupid to know what to do with it.
“Hey Lou, what do you do with all this support?” “Well Bill, we’ve lost the policy on that. Perhaps we’ll write a new one if we get around to it.”
They won’t. Count on it.
Best thing about it—it has shown the light on the cockroaches that were voted in as Republicans, but are treacherous to the core.
McCain, that would mean you, especially.
Loose the RINO party! forget the politics and take this country back. If the past several weeks have not proven it true that conservatives need to distance themselves as far away from boehned, gobbler, mclame and his squeeze as we can get, I don’t know what will. Let the Tea Party arise!
"America will be watching closely which senators vote to allow Democrats to fully fund Obamacare, and the vote should be carried out in the open for all to see," Cruz's office said.
Ohhhh, now I get it.
That wasn't a fight, that is Sen. Cruz dishing out a spanking...

Will
Never
Vote
Republican
Again
These RINOS are starting to sound like children that are mad and stomping their feet because Cruz is showing them up. They are really childish in their reactions to Cruz.
It’s the future of the GOP trying to drag the past GOP along with it. And the future is winning!
