Republicans shout down Ted Cruz - Burgess Everett - POLITICO

GOP going sane?

 

[Toro]

Don't listen to them Teddy! Team players are losers!

Teddy for President!

 

[Blackrook]

The GOP leaders are weaklings and cowards. The American people gave them a huge mandate to do everything in their power to stop Obama, and they're wasting it.

 

[Judicial review]

Good. The guys an idiot. I'm a conservative.

 

[Vigilante]

Ted can handle it, he can handle it all!

 

[Judicial review]

Ted can handle it, he can handle it all!

Republicans shout down Ted Cruz

Republican senators panned Ted Cruz and his conservative colleagues Wednesday as they picked up traction on their push to derail the House GOP’s plan to keep the government funded.

The high-profile Texas conservative made a splash on Wednesday in announcing his opposition to House leaders’ plans to pass an omnibus spending bill to keep the government funded through September, revisit Department of Homeland Security funding early next year and pass a proposal disapproving of Obama’s immigration policy — which the Democrat-controlled Senate will not take up.

First he joined colleagues from the Senate’s right flank and demanded both chambers take a harder line against Obama than proposed by GOP leaders. Then he joined House hard-liners at a news conference and urged Republicans to “do what you promised” in pushing back against Obama’s executive order shielding millions from deportation.

“We should pass a short-term continuing resolution that includes language defunding the implementation of the president’s executive action on amnesty,” Cruz said on Wednesday.

But Cruz’s push, which is backed by a number of GOP senators and House members from the GOP’s right flank, is beginning to irk colleagues who still smart when reminded of last year’s government shutdown over Obamacare funding — a drama in which Cruz was a central player. And though Cruz insists he does not want a government shutdown, some of his Senate colleagues say that’s where his plan would end up.

Asked whether some Republicans are advocating a strategy that ultimately would result in a government shutdown due to Democratic opposition to any GOP bill that eliminates funding to DHS, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said “just a few are.”

“I hope everybody learned the lesson of the last time we shut down the government. If it hadn’t been for the crisis of Obamacare, it would have done much more damage than it did,” McCain said. “The overwhelming majority of us are against shutting down the government.”

Rafael (Ted) Cruz is leading the Right down the road to destruction, like his idol McCarthy.

Kasich created the federal surplus in 90s. Major federal accomplishments as well as state governor and personal business owner. No one come close.

That's why Cruz is so popular with voters.

Did I miss something? I didn't see the "shouted down" part in the article submitted in the post. Does the delusional left rely on wishful thinking instead of facts these days?

 

[R.D.]

No they didn't.

The GOP leaders are weaklings and cowards. The American people gave them a huge mandate to do everything in their power to stop Obama, and they're wasting it.

In your dreams.

Red states rehired Red Senators. That's all.

Sorry, the Manchurian muslim did that!

 

[Blackrook]

Obama shut down a few national parks. Who cares? All essential functions of government kept going.

So why do we need "non-essential functions" to continue?

Is that why the Republicans picked up 8, about to be 9 Senators when Mary gets her ass kicked by an unknown currently LEADING her by 23% in the latest poll?
