Was it Carol Moseley Braun who pee’d in a trash can surrounded by her staffers during a filibuster and got in trouble?

A can of tinned chicken, a can of cream of Chicken and a can of Vegall mixed in a pie dish and topped with Bisquick makes a fairly decent easy pie.

Rely on the current GOP to do the right thing a year from now? Kind of like relying on the USSC to see the obvious unconstitutionality of OdingoCare.

“People are saying Cruz’s effort is foredoomed and will fail.
People said the same thing regarding defending the Alamo.”

Even us diehard copperheads remember the Alamo!

What Mike Lee is saying now, about the American public not only being hurt by Obamacare but also being forced to fund it reminds me of Saddam Hussein, who made the widows pay for the bullets used to execute their husbands in full view of the whole family. Killing the innocent men was bad enough, but making the wives pay for it was heinous. And that is what the funding of Obamacare is. It’s forcing us to pay for the bullet that will kill us.

Call and email ALL Senators of the 113th Congress

Call the Republican National Committee:
310 First Street, SE Washington, DC 20003
(202) 863-8500

Tell them to stand with PATRIOT Senator Cruz and his effort to defund Obamacare, no excuses!!!

Well, then...it’s the best damn theater we’ve had in a long, long while! If that is what this is, I want MORE theater— at least then they are working for us not slapping backs behind closed doors.

I’m sure Obamacare isn’t going to cause Krauthammer too many headaches. It won’t bother those on the Hill or most of the snob class. Obamacare isn’t good down here in Averageland or as McCain says—Middle Earth.

I’d rather see everyone hit-all at the same time, no exemptions, no delay or give people something to vote FOR, not AGAINST.

Delaying the mandate serves what purpose?

The longer it is delayed the harder it will be to repeal it.

Weren't there are over 250,000 Federal parasites hired to implement this monstrosity?

Their actions are a cancer to our Liberty.

Obamacare must be repealed and ALL Federal parasites hired to implement this must be fired and have their pensions revoked.

“How many conservatives are democrats?”

They’re pretty darn rare. I used to be one, but dropped the ‘rat party affiliation around 07-08.

Stay strong @SenTedCruz! Wear comfortable shoes. As we did for Rand Paul, fortifying caribou jerky is on it’s way #KeepCruzing #MakeDCListen

It reverts to pre-Obamacare, which was bad, but not as bad as Obamacare.

Rep. Tom Price (R-Ga) has a good alternative plan.

Most of Congress are Globalists....banking conglomerates and corporations have seen to this....along with Wall Street. That boat isn’t otherwise coming back to shore.

The question is...if there’s no choice but accepting the US is part of the Global Agenda...what can we stop in that.. and keep here?

Those POS in Congress actually had the nerve to say that including them and their staffs in OdingoCare would result in a “brain drain”.

My gawd, what a bunch of pigs.

Krauthammer’s roots are Dim as he did work for Mondale as his speech writer.

People are saying Cruz's effor is foredoomed and will fail

It's already succeeded. Cruz can think and talk at the same time. Those who are helping him with the effort will be about the only pols who are NOT blamed for the Obamacare train wreck. I even like that Rand and Sessions aren't 100% reading from the same playbook. It shows that this new breed will discuss things.

I can't imagine any 'pub getting elected in the near future without the blessing of these "whacko-birds"
