Federal workers back to work after 16-day shutdown
Since the ABC News report (on its website) now shows an error message - poof! all gone - but it's still being reported at the Houston Chronicle.
A fuller article about Cruz on "This Week."
And Ted is correct the shut down was the fault of the dims
Yup. Obama/Reid threatened to shut down the government if they didn’t get their way. And they followed through. But the weakling RINOs wimped out as usual.
So, Ted pulled a ‘Phil’ on them, you say? Good on him!
Government “SLOW DOWN” is a much more accurate phrase.
But why worry about the truth.
The Republican dominated House did its job to keep the federal government running by sending bill after bill to the Senate which funded the entire federal government except Obamacare. The irresponsible Democrat dominated Senate refused to do its duty to keep the federal government running. And Obama gleefully implemented a shut down crafted to “punish” America instead of serving it by maintaining minimum essential functions of federal government.
Were we still a Constitutional Republic, our citizens would be howling for Democrats’ blood and impeachment & removal of that illegal alien in the White House!
Let me guess. Na, I don’t need to. It was Dingy Harry Reid who refused to consider anything that came from the House.
I believe that’s been Cruz’s position all along.
16 weeks? Wasn’t it 16 days?
The Houston Chronicle and every other MSM outlet was telling us over & over the GOP was gonna take it in the throat. Why would anyone believe the republicans went ahead then and caused it to happen?
In fact, he blames President Barack Obama and Democratic leaders, ABC News reports in a story on its website.
Well duh!
The shut down was clearly owned by Obama......
Quote from Ted: “Lets see if Obama is willing to shut down the government to fund Obamacare.” I guess he was.
Meanwhile, they have convinced enough people that the President and the Majority Leader of the Senate have no such power.
You can't fix Stupid, because it doesn't require fixing if you're a Democrat. The Stupid follow them slavishly.
He is, of course, correct. The House has the Constitutional responsibility to provide a budget which Democrats never allowed to come to the Senate floor for a vote. The shutdown is therefore ENTIRELY their fault.
Dallas News had to retract a statement about a lack or not of drug muling dreamers.
On the plus side, the Ted Cruz segment did not try to diminish his popularity or accomplishments. They did say that Cruz was second to only the Pope in some "Man of the Year" vote.
Truth hurts.. sad that most will not accept truth.
