the WaPo story quotes Schumer and other Dem senators as thanking Cruz and Lee for allowing them to get more nominations through the Senate than otherwise would have been the case.
Which is a lie, Harry was going to do them anyway.
The GOP is not a conservative party.
Its slightly to the right of the Democrats and just as liberal.

Schumer is a liar. But what’s new. They planned to ram the nomination through later in the week but did it now to razz Cruz. Whatever. Yawn.
“the WaPo story quotes Schumer and other Dem senators as thanking Cruz and Lee for allowing them to get more nominations through the Senate than otherwise would have been the case.”
Actually:
“If the Senate had voted Monday on the spending bill under the original agreement, Reid would have had to wait until Monday evening to start processing nominees...”
Only an idiot or a turtle would believe the Democrats were not going to push all their nominees thru before losing control of the Senate.
From a GOP senator:
“...adding that until Saturday, liberals were being faulted for holding up the spending bill. “Now, I guess the blame will be shared,” she said.”
Oh golly! Imagine the GOP being “blamed” for holding up a spending bill! We sure would not want THAT to happen!
The GOP-E. What is the difference between them and the Democrats? Nothing!
The nominee story is BS. They are trying to make Cruz pay a political price for standing up for us.
Cruz says they were already planning on coming back Monday to push those nominees.
Even IF this BS story is true, it’s not Cruz’ fault that the Whig party decided to sell out America. Any blame for those nominees lay at McConnell’s feet.
In any case, this is a made up story. The Uniparty needs to tag their enemy.
