Ah, the Justifiers justifying Cruz’s justification. Why not admit that Cruz blew the vote (whether intentional or not is irrelevant)? He missed doing his day job. Just admit Cruz isn’t perfect; don’t try to justify the missed vote on something so crucial.
Ah, the ignorant masses who accept voting in the actual vote is more important than stopping the process to the vote proceed.

Why don't you get off of Cruz's back and get angry at the RINOs who both voted for cloture and voted to confirm Eric Holder's twin sister.
This is what I care about.
Yesterday I gave an impassioned floor speech calling on Senators to stop this confirmation. The place to stop it was the cloture vote. Cloture requires 60 votes. Republicans have a majority. We have 54 Republican senators. Had Republicans simply stood together, Ms. Lynch would not be attorney general today. But unfortunately Republican leadership decided that it was not worth fighting to defend the rule of law. Loretta Lynch is attorney general today because Republican leadership decided they wanted her to be attorney general. And I said on the Senate floor yesterday there are a great many people across this country wondering why exactly did we have an election when we fought so hard in 2014, when a Republican Senate confirms the exact Attorney General Harry Reid’s Democratic senate would confirm?Can you name the last Republican senator that publicly called out the Republican Senate President, especially regarding procedural sleight of hand? I can't.-Sen. Ted Cruz
