The media are the collective enemy of the United States of America...and that INCLUDES Fox. A few Freepers could stand to wake up, as well. Rocks have been turned over; roaches exposed.

I was up earlier this morning and the thought occurred: What if Cruz refuses to stop when Harry tells him to stop?

What happens now, at 10AM? ... a vote on the amended CR bill, or a cloture vote?

Thank you for the number. Having coffee now to shake out the cobwebs, can’t call until the frog leaves my throat.

Does anyone have a succinct message that packs the most power to old mitchy etc? Thanks

I have wondered the same thing. THE best case scenario, (we should pray for this) is Cruz refuses to stop and Reid calls security to have him physically removed. Reality show on steroids!

The GOP brain trust have a terrible track record starting with Rove who claimed a blowout win by Romney. They just don’t get it why Cruz is doing more for the GOP than all of their PACs combined.

Pray America is waking up

Just got through to the RNC. Gentlemen there said they have had numerous phone calls from folks who got hold of MC C office that his staff is rude and hanging up on people.

The media vermin ... I know where I’m going hunting when the collapse arrives. The oligarchs won’t be dragging these media vermin into the bunkers with them, so the season will be open!


I wont hunt them, but I’ll be glad to let them starve.

Good morning bray, can you believe Cruz is still at it and sounding as fresh as he did when I passed out at 3am or so?!

Do you know who else showed up? I am so frustrated that I missed much.

They are one of the enemies of the USA, yes. I don't watch the news myself. I listen to conservative talk radio and catch a sound bite or two - or catch up here at FR.

I have not read everything she wrote, but I can recommend Atlas Shrugged, and The Fountainhead. The novels have plots, characters and such, so the philosophy is brought to life (although there are some utterly unnecessary, very long speeches). They are brilliantly well-written in places, and pretty awful in places. You will undoubtedly find yourself arguing with her characterizations of Christianity. The biggest value in her novels is how she depicts the Left. She nailed them: their motives, their self-righteousness, their lust for power. Her heroes can make one chuckle because of their perfection, but her villains are all too realistic.

Thanks again for this list, I called every R last night, got mostly full voiceboxes, but that won’t stop me from trying again today...

Slapping cuffs on Cruz would take this to the next level. It might get people into the streets.

The phones are jammed, but ask them why they and their staff are exempt from this monstrosity while you are not. Ask them to demand they have the same plan the rest of the American people are forced to have.

Ask them to vote against Obamacare by voting against cloture.

Hey Mitch! Cloture is the path to Obamacare. You know this and we know this! And your primary opponent knows this and will make damn sure the voters in KY know this!
