Morning, brother... sorry I missed you last eve. Couldn’t keep the eyes open any longer.

Epic evening, for sure.

“America’s Senator” showed he has “The Right Stuff”.

Too bad they’re not actually listening to what he has to say. They make me so angry that I actually wish socialized medicine on them. And only them. If the rats and the media love it so much, they should enrol and leave the rest of us alone.

Rubio just mentioned that ads are being run on Spanish language TV trying to get people to sign up for Obama care. Can I suggest to both Senator's Cruz and Rubio, that they translate what they have said here into Spanish language ads?

Er hey - they could even do it right now- Translate a little of their message into Spanish and English. Bet the Spanish press would pick it up. Also bet it would make heads on the left explode :-)

Well, Rubio has waded off into the deep weeds of immigrants...illegals, too. Sigh. I thought there was hope for him!

Politicians seldom moves very far away from their own agendas. They are expert at smoke-and-mirrors, ye ole shellgame, etc.

Yup. Well, at least he's voting with Cruz. So there's still some hope for him. But for president? It's Cruz for me.

Did C-SPAN happen to mention how long Democrat Richard Russell’s speech was in 1964 espousing his opposition to the Civil Rights Act and his support of segregation and Jim Crow?

I think his point is that Obamacare effects everybody negatively.

What's this guy saying? Didn't Ted already say that if they vote for this thing nobody can offer any amendments?

Technically, this is not a filibuster. It is a symposium on liberty.

I’m disappointed that he hasn’t had more support. How CAN a republican vote for something that is so harmful to their constituents! I just don’t GET it!

God Bless Ted Cruz and all who have helped him. He is getting attention and changing minds I just know it. The longer he goes, the more people will watch and pay attention. He is shaming the RINOS. And he is spreading COURAGE.

I’m loving that Cruz is going after the media, too. Other than Sarah Palin, I can’t remember another republican ever doing that.
