Hey, Corker, FU! You’re not qualified to shine Ted’s shoes much less criticize him.

Corker needs a phone call from his constituents, and a Tweet from the rest of us saying: Support We the People and vote to DEFUND Obamacare AND.... "Senator Ted Cruz ‏@SenTedCruz 1h Vote tomorrow matters because anyone who votes in favor of cloture, votes in favor of granting Reid ability to fund Obamacare" snip https://twitter.com/SenTedCruz#

Lamar’s bit8ch boy has really leaped over all those benches he used to sit behind. Where’s Hoeven? Did he fall over on the way?

Don’t forget this. He’s up again in 2016. Let’s fire a warning shot by terminating Lamar in 2014.

Pegged Corker for a sleazy go-along when he helped McShame during the Amnesty Sell Out in the Senate.

We really need to get tough on these idiots. This public display against Cruz is outrageous and hurtful to the party as a whole. Although we can all say...THANK YOU...to them for finally showing their true colors.

Cruz is very clearly a GIANT with Corker being a munchkin in comparison. Jealousy, thou name is Corker.

He is attacking two of the smartest Senators. Maybe he should attack Vitter as well to dig himself into a hole.

RINOs hate making hard decisions. Comity must be observed. Cruz is pushing their faces into a hard decision and they hate him for it. It’s ruining their social calendar.

He has already received my phone call. Of course like a dem he won’t listen. Oh yeah, he says he’s a repub, but don’t believe it for a second. He’s another obama BFF.
