I think the Obamacare debacle has spooked them big time. They didn’t expect it to be this bad. And that’s on top of the recent Syrian fiasco and bitch slap by Putin. Things are not going well in Obamaland.

0bama sounds so off his rocker it is not even funny to me anymore. The things he says, the contradictions, the flip-flops et al. are truly amazing.

What I don’t understand is how so many can just dismiss these now truly obvious incongruities in his behavior.

I am beginning to think that Reid and Pelosi are taking unfair advantage of a person who is mentally unstable. And somewhere in the law, that is criminal and a felony.

No, from news reports he summoned them to gang up on Cruz.

Play ball, or go home was their message.

They are scared to death of him.

Word to the GOP - no pain no gain. Let the dhimmicrats suffer some more.

GOP is holding all the cards... the base is certainly WITH them (though the MSM would like to spew a lot of disinformation about THAT).

Conservatives do NOT have to blink

LET’S hope our country is still a nation of checks and balances. Tyranny is not democracy.

Keep the shutdown going until Obama is out of office. Beats the path we were on until last week and is one of the few options, maybe the only, to stop this destruction of our country.

Boehner should adjourn the House until King Barack I goes back on national TV and says he is ready to negotiate AND lists the concessions he is willing to make,

If the Republicans had any brains, they, or their minions, would flood the airways in about two weeks with ads asking, “How is that $2500 health insurance savings working out for you Mr. and Mrs. Average American?”

It would make the present problem look a lot less like “extortion” or “terrorism,” and a lot more like plain old wisdom.

We need to shutdown Obama’s uncontrolled spending and it’s up to the Congress to pull the purse strings since they and only they, control them.

Fk him.

We have plenty revenue to cover our obligations and enough to throw a decent keg party afterward.

Paying our current bills isn’t and issue.

More importantly, the lack of a budget shouldn’t be a barrier for our leaders to pay the bills.

We haven’t had a budget for 4 years anyway and under your control of the White Hut and the Congreff for two years, you pretty much added nearly a trillion dollars to the budget that wasn’t there and we still don’t know where that money went.

Any one who announces they want to fundamentally change America means what it says - he hates America.

That would be a ballsy and great move if possible!

Now is the time to contact Speaker Boehner to let him know they’re doing a good job on “holding the line” and to keep going:

He fell for the power of his presstitutes. Believed their sycophancy. Didn’t realize they are empty and stupid and couldn’t hold him up forever. May he keep believing, and melt down hugely on TV.
