The Pundiots like Georgie Will hate having to explain Cruz to his friends at the Brie and Chablis parties. He would rather explain how to manage defeat.

His willingness to fight and to articulate basic American notions of limited government is something we’ve been looking for since Reagan.

All this is not an insurmountable task. All it takes is a Republican congress and a Republican President with the guts to reinvent govt.

Not that difficult to do.

Most Anything in govt. can be defunded.You don't have to kill it just defund it.What if govt. had five million unfunded employees and two million that were funded,it could happen.

we now have a recognized leader in Ted Cruz and to me he's the Ronald Reagan II we have been waiting for.

No no no!

The beneficiaries of this conflagration in Washington are a half-dozen Republican governors, according to Rove [lol], who can jump into the presidential fray after 2014 and claim they were not a part of the antics in Washington.

Rove may be right, to a certain exist. Regardless, both the Dems and the GOPelites have painted horns on Cruz and are continually trying to demonize him as the villain.

That may be counter productive for the conservatives, but the LIVs are another story. The villainizing was effective against Sarah Palin. Will it work against Cruz?

Debt ceiling needs to be pointed out by Cruz that it will be a constitutional crisis and most Americans don’t even know that it is Congress’ job to approve spending (not Senate, not President’s).

As if that isn't complicated enough very few understand the lies the WH clown's spews about "DEFAULTING" on HIS promises made of future payouts to his slackers, when the term default techinically means inability or refusal to pay T-Bill and Bond holders according to their written contract to lend money to the US.

One cannot have a DEFAULT on GFY 2014 giveaways when he does not have a single appropriation bill signed into law or a budget approved. But in the land of LIV he wins over and over and over. I fully support the GOP holding the line on the CR - although they have given plenty against the "I WILL NOT NEGOTIATE" negotiator - but Boner and the boys have already stated they will not allow "DEFAULT" so why should the opposition negotiate on anything?

MTP has Savannah Guthrie sitting in for DNC Dave, who must be still recovering from the beatdown administered by Ted Cruz last week. The MSM simply cannot handle Cruz-Control.

We can't go into default unless we choose to. We pay $415 billion a year in debt servicing costs, but we receive $2.7 trillion in revenue annually.

What the clown and Piglosi want the LIV crowd to believe is that "DEFAULT" is not paying up on the promises of future giveaways to the crowd riding in the wagon, when he has no budget approved and not one single appropriation bill (out of 12 required) has been signed into law for GFY 2014.

Failure to get appropriations from the HOUSE on GFY 2014 LIBERAL DEARMS, IS NOT DEFAULT.

Savannah Guthrie is reading her teleprompter questions with an increasingly frantic voice, as she interviews Rand Paul. Another lop-sided fight!

On closing the oceans,its being discussed big time.

I think Breitbart picked this up a few days ago and so far that thread is over 6,000 posts!

It's all happening right where I live.

What is going on is that the everglades Nat. Park,run by an obama psychophant Jonathan Jarvis-- director of all Nat.Parks have closed the 650 square miles of Fla. Bay to boaters/fishermen etc.

It's particularly tough this time of year. Our economy typically dives anywhere from 50-70% in Sept.,Oct.and Nov. so if we get a storm or stuff like this it all but shuts us down.

We need fishermen coming to the Keys. Our economy depends on it.

The fishermen come from all over the world. They stay in hotels/motels, hire boats, eat in restaurants,their wives spend money in the area shops, and the economy flourishes. But, it all starts with the ability to go fishing in the back,Everglades Nat. Park. Take that away and you just shut down a portion of our economy at the slowest time of the year,not good.

What is going on is that if boaters/captains going into the park get caught they usually get a warning the first time.The second time they will try and take the boat away.

Getting told we can't fish here or there is really nothing new down here. The feds have been doing it since the 70's on both sides of the Keys. And, it just gets worse every year.

this is the worst ever! Figures. It happens under the socialist administration of jarvis/obama. By the way Jarvis is screwing up all over the country from false info on oyster farming in Calif, just ask Dianne Feinstein,closing down parts of the Outer Banks for bird nesting, Mt. Rushmore cones, you name it his ugly hand is everywhere.

Savannah Guthrie’s question writers must be interns at MTP.

She only gave Paul lead-ins to express rational Republican perspective on our country’s situation.

Ted Cruz to Candy Crowley: Use Debt Ceiling Vote to ‘Mitigate’ ObamaCare - CNN - 10/6/13

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kh5PMEhvkVc

Published on Oct 6, 2013
10/6/13 - On CNN’s State of the Union Sunday morning, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) argued that provisions “mitigating” the Affordable Care Act should be attached to a vote to raise the debt ceiling, a sign that the Senator who helped engineer the current government shutdown over ObamaCare is willing to take the fight to the next level. “Number one, we should look for some signifiant structural plan to reduce government spending,” Cruz said in response to host Candy Crawley’s question about what he would seek in return for the raising of the debt limit. “Number two, we should avoid new taxes. Number three, we should look for ways to mitigate the harm from ObamaCare.”

This stopped Crowley. “You think that some facet of the president’s health care plan should be attached to an increase in the debt ceiling?”

“The debt ceiling historically has been among the best leverage that Congress has to rein in the executive,” Cruz replied. “There’s great historical precedent. Since 1978 we’ve raised the debt ceiling fifty-five times. A majority of those times, twenty-eight times, Congress has attached very specific and stringent requirements, many of the most significant spending restraints, things like Gramm Rudman [i.e. the Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Balanced Budget Act], things like sequestration, came through the debt ceiling.”

“So the president’s demand, jack up the country’s credit card with no limits and no constraints, is not a reasonable one,” Cruz said.
