Ted Cruz launches faux filibuster as Senate readies spending bill vote

Hilary is going to have no problem in the next election. The GOP doesn't have a candidate that can stop her. Republican scare tactics about Obamacare are going to be proven to be just that...more Americans are going to have coverage and American families understand who has their back and who has only the back of the top 1%. Americans also understand where we have come from and where we were when Obama took office. All of this spells big problems for the GOP....especially when the American people see through the grandstanding and game playing...they understand that America doesn't need a party that wastes their time reading "My pet goat" or "Green eggs and ham".

Hillary? Isn't she the old one with the kankles that screwed the pooch in Benghazi?
 
Leave it to a right-winger to find a Senator wasting everyone's time, talking about Ashton Kutcher and Green eggs and ham rather than working on solving the problems this country is facing..as "sunshine".....it speaks volumes.

What percentage of the 21 hours do you think was spent on "Green Eggs and Ham" or Ashton Kutcher?

LOL....you guys keep failing with trying to use Benghazi. It didn't work the first 784 times.....what makes you think the 785th is going to be the charm. Sorry Charlie....the American people are buying it....

Doesn't matter.....the guy is a buffoon who wasted everyone's time.....the only thing bigger than his idiocy is his ego....grandstanding and game playing at its worst.

He didn't waste my time or the time of the majority of the American people that agree with him on this issue.

why does he want to drag out the the process, Ted cruz objected to moving up the voting time so the house would get the continuing resolution bill back to the house Thursday night or early Friday morning. why is ted cruz insisting that the senate vote has to be on friday?
 
i forgot to mention this when i replayed to your message earlier, but how is bob corker destroying ted cruz? I don't seem to recall bob corker voicing his support for obama care, he was just criticizing ted cruz and mike lee for dragging out the process of the senate debate just because they want more people to be watching on saturday. Corker was accusing them of caring more about how the senate debate is portrayed rather then sending it back to the house at a earlier time.

Ted Cruz made an incredible case against Obamacare explaining exactly how it would impact the American people and jobs. He did what should have been done a couple years ago. What Obamabots don't understand is what a fraud Obama is and how bad UHC is going to affect them. it really is a shame that so many Obama supporters continue to buy the rhetoric and ignore the results.

LOL, now it doesn't matter! Let's take a guess and say about 0.4%. The rest of the time was spend making mince meat of obamacare and any democrat stupid enough to ask him questions, even after pulling an all nighter. You are using the "let's call him names because this guy is killing us tactic". It shouldn't work, but you do have all those low information voters on your side.

Talk about a waste of time, you post here drips of it.

Making mincemeat of it? Surely you jest.....the guy made himself and the GOP look like utter imbeciles. LOL...."low information voters"? Is that why demographics show that the higher your education level, the more likely you vote democratic? I think you have been getting too much misinformation from FauxNews and your right-wing radio pals.

Heard she was going to ask Andrew Steven's family to endorse her and be involved in her campaign telling the American public how successful she was in foreign policy

are you going to answer my question about senator corker's criticism of cruz. they are both intent on defunding obama's health care plan, but cruz did not want the senate to vote on the continuing resolution bill so the bill would be back in the house by Friday. why does cruz want the senate to delay their vote till friday, which would give the house very little time to act on the bill.

I'm not a US Senator now am I? The reality is.....Cruz is a blowhard who engaged in the silliest form of teabaggery for no purpose other than to fuel his ego and appease the wackos on the fringe of the GOP. He is destroying the GOP....for that....I congratulate him.
 
and how bad UHC is going to affect them.
Um, the PPACA is not UHC.
it really is a shame that so many Obama supporters continue to buy the rhetoric and ignore the results.
Um UHC has very good results in reducing costs........and the PPACA has not had any results yet.....so, not much to ignore.

I predict....you will not directly limit your comments to my points, you will instead use it as springboard to launch into other falsehoods.

No, didn't listen to it nor do I care. Why should I care what another Senator says about Cruz, I liked what he said and he can back up his statements. I don't eat at restaurants where the chef doesn't eat his own food. There is no reason to shutdown the govt. over defunding Obamacare other than Obama and Reid throwing a tantrum and appealing to the low information voters like the other Obamabots.

Do you like green eggs and ham? Would you could you with a mouse? Could you would you in a house?

Really? what costs have been reduced due to Obamacare? You keep buying what Obama tells you because he has been so successful in implementing good economic policies which by the way no Obama supporter can offer the source of the data proving that success. Are you ever going to think with the brain God gave you rather than solely with the heart?

the bill can't defund obamacare, because most of the funding for the program has already been appropriated.
 
Do you like green eggs and ham? Would you could you with a mouse? Could you would you in a house?

No, don't like Green Eggs and ham but I am open to having my mind changed when you provide me with the sources for data showing what a great job Obama has done and why he deserves your support?

you aren't even willing to listen to any argument a liberal or obama support makes because you inherently think you are automatically right and they are automatically wrong.

The House holds the power of the purse and it can just as easily withhold funds as it can appropriate the same...

Because it has been appropriated doesn't mean that the appropriations can't be recalled especially since there isn't a budget for 2014
 
The hilarious things is that the man even failed with his analogy......he didn't realize that the protagonist in GEAH is a stubborn man who decides he hates something before he tries it and has to admit that he likes it. EPIC FAIL.....but he did succeed at one thing.....it was the best career ending speech since Bobby Jindal's deer in headlights response to the SOTU.
