I was going to chide you for not posting the BARF alert to that headline.

Then I see its a Slate article, so....

‘nuff said.

The ‘rats love them, why don’t they take them? After they get elected under the ‘rat banner, of course.

If all spending comes from the house and the house has been led by republicans now for a couple years, why have the not allocated money to what we have so we do not have to extend the debt limit?

If they write the legislation for spending and it is written with a limit, we never should have been to this point.

Medved is ecstatic this afternoon about the news.
He’s praising Boehner and McConnell for their “courage”. Sickening.

Oh, so does this mean the Pubbies will be liked and lifted up by the lefties, now? And, that they (Pubbies) won't be blamed for all of the out of control spending??

NO! FOOLS!

Courage? Courage to pass blank check legislation like Pelosi and Reid would?

That IS sickening. EVERY RINO makes me sick to my stomach.

As the Obamedia spin this into a “Profiles in Courage” moment, can you imagine the abuse that they were going to heap on the Republicans had the sell-outs not voted for more debt for our children and generations after them? As soon as you vote the Leftist’s way, you’re okay!

Cornyn must have a death wish. Already Stockman is capitalizing off of this screw-up.

 

BREAKING: Cornyn just voted to raise Obama’s debt limit

February 12, 2014 By

Dear fellow Texan, John Cornyn just voted to raise Obama's debt limit. Yes, moments ago John Cornyn voted with Democrats to give Obama more money to spend. The only time John Cornyn has stood up to Obama was to shake his hand. Even worse, it was a vote to kill Ted Cruz's filibuster. John Cornyn stabbed Ted Cruz in the back, again. And he just voted to let Obama spend billions … [Read More...]

Think of it this way:

Cruz forced McConnell and Cornyn to publicly back Reid and 0bamacare against the Republican Grass Roots.

Just like Boner in the House.

The “Leadership” is now in full revolt against their caucuses, constituents, and parties.

CRUZ WINS THE SET!

Just a bit of positive reinforcement from Slate to let Mitch and John know they did good (for the progressive movement).

Good boy, Mitchy!!!

Good boy, Johnnie!!!
