It's pretty predictable. There are don't-rock-the-boat FReepers too.

Tomorrow's headlines - and it will be a barrage - "Two Politicians Grandstand Against All That Is Good And Right". It'll be on every liberal lip. Then they'll try to bury it.

Amazing the substance pouring through Cruz in these hours.

I should be ashamed if I were these sleeping Republican senators tonight, home and bought off.

I swear Lindsey Graham had been in the whiskey tonight, appearing on GRETA.

His first unfunny remark was to a backdrop of Cruz on his feet in his 8th hour EDT, and Graham complains about the late hour! Yes, he tells Greta he will be sooo happy when her show moves up an hour! The contrast was stunning, with Cruz on video feed.

I simply could not listen to his faux appreciation of Ted, as he then turns to trump up credits for the old way tactic of wait, delay and basically BS endlessly toward some uncertain goal down the road.

Can’t stand him.

Yes, indeed!
I’ve been posting on Ted Cruz’s FaceBook page.

Very well stated! If Cruz has Boehner and the Rinos scared then he is doing an awesome thing for our country.

Posting this for the third time as I got to thinking more about the fact Cruz and others are there in the most powerful building in our nation...... in the dark of night 'History may just hinge on what is going on thru the lights of those few windows where we see them working.....and we have this photo of this event...

Thank you. I’m back up. Can’t lie down and breath. Will just sit here in recliner and listen to these fine patriots.

Not a teleprompter in sight, just a few notes...eloquence and knowledge, intellect and a love for this country.

These men are an answer to all of our prayers for devine intervention. I truely believe that.

You’re absolutely right on all counts.

I despise the lamestream and truly despise the RINOS and GOP-E.

AND, I hate Bill O Reilly for his cheap shot at Ted Cruz tonight.

RE :”I cannot fathom that there are some freepers who think Ted Cruz is doing the wrong thing. I am flummoxed. Ted Cruz has done more leading in a month than the top 5 Congressional leaders have done in the last 5 years!”

The proof is in the pudding. We will know in a week or so. First test is to see how many Senators he convinces to kill the house bill in cloture.

They're both probably dog tired. I'm thankful he's giving Sen Cruz a much needed break. God bless 'em both for hanging in there.

My eyes are starting to cross
