Ted Cruz vaporizes Senate Democrats antagonizing

This is significant. Now we the people should hold BOTH parties responsible for this mess and DEMAND they start acting like adults and deal with deficit reduction NOT on the back of the poor but for one thing by NOT creating more wars we can't afford. REDUCE THE OBSCENE MILITARY BUDGET. ...

Of course, if a dysfunctional do-nothing plan continues on the right, they will use their power to continue gridlock as before. ...

"Senate Democrats lost their majority on Harry Reid's watch, but they're closing ranks about him anyway. Most Democrats have Reid's back, prepared to stand by him as minority leader through a tumultuous 2 years as he simultaneously runs for reelection in Nevada." It seems these above-stated Democrats are on another suicide mission. Most of the Dems also tried to distance themselves from Obama before the midterms and even truly felt that Bill and Hillary Clinton were b ...

preventing appropriations from going forward. The Democrats did this for one simple reason: they want leverage to push their liberal priorities in all the other spending bills. In short, they are using military funding as a hostage. Just last week, the Senate passed the Bipartisan Budget Act, a budget deal that raised the legal spending caps for both defense and non-defense discretionary spending. This deal, which was opposed by many Republicans, gave President Obama and Democrats in Cong ...

In one of their final acts before losing their majority to Republicans, Senate Democrats confirmed as ambassadors on Tuesday two big donors to President Barack Obama’s reelection campaign, despite a controversy overtheir qualifications. David Bryson Mamet won confirmation as envoy to Argentina in a 50-43 vote, while senators agreed 52-42 to send Colleen Bell on her way to Hungary. No Republicans voted for either nominee, and several senators misse ...

These are clips from C-Span. They were arguing against what they are now doing. I guess it's not okay for republicans, but it is okay for them. Very interesting. http://video.foxnews.com/v/2859380230001/flashback-senate-democrats-make-case-against-nuclear-option/ ...

scathing statements against President Barack Obama and his administration’s decision to break with longstanding tradition to veto anti-Israel resolutions, choosing, instead, to abstain from voting in a United Nations Security Council vote. The vote called for a halt to Israeli construction in the West Bank and eastern Jerusalem. Among the Democrats are Senators Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Joe Manchin (D-WV), Bob Casey (D-PA), Richard Blumenthal (D-VT), Mark Warner (D-VA), and Chris Coons (D-DE), ...

For the Republican party. Waste of money and effort. ...

Before he really hurts himself. Don't get me wrong, I totally admire people who stand tall for what they believe in, but I firmly believe he is doing the last desparate dance before we really find out IF Obamacare is the monster they'd like us to believe it is.... I think his FUNDERS like Palin's require ALL STOPS to be pulled out. Thankfully, it does not look like he will prevail in jettisoning Obamacare. ...

didn't expect any justice from the Dept of Justice, did you? Eric refuses to appoint a special investigator to look into the IRS targeting conservative groups. No signs of impropriety. Not a smidgen of impropriety, one could say. Doesn't matter that the head witness pleaded the Fifth twice and the "investigator" appointed to the case was a huge donor to Obama. If that's not impropriety, Ric, I don't know what is, but I guess there's nothing ...

In January of 2013, before he became infamous for modernizing McCarthyism in the Senate halls, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) claimed he couldn’t support aid for Sandy victims because of the “pork” and “wasteful spending” in the Disaster Relief Act of 2013. Read the freshman Senator’s explanation for refusing aid to Sandy victims: WASHINGTON, DC — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) made the following statement on the Disaster Relief Act of 2013: Hurricane Sandy inflicted devastating damag ...

There are times when you just need to have the versatility to change the script, hold back, have some respect. ...

I thought foreign-born people were not eligible to run for president? Are the Republicans conveniently sweeping this under the rug? (and I am not talking about the donald's hair piece). ...

Senate Health Bill - 1502 pages "It's important to remember that the bill won't exist in this form for long. Senate Majority Leader Reid and Sens. Max Baucus and Chris Dodd along with senior White House aides are merging the Finance and Health Committee legislation into one bill that will be considered on the floor of the Senate. The behind-closed-doors dealings have drawn criticism from Republicans, particularly because President Obama had promised a transparent process and ...

They voted on the Baucus amendment and the Schumer amendment and both failed to pass. I find some of the comments very interesting from both sides. I will not give my comments on either side's remarks although I saw some really hateful speeches. I decided to look for any news reports on this but it doesn't tell the whole story. BTW, Baucus' proposal was to let tax rates rise on Jan. 1 on incomes over $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for couples fell on a vote of ...

So it's not over yet. Washington (CNN) -- Now that the House has passed the Senate's health care reform bill and a package meant to reconcile differences between the House and Senate bills, the next step is for members of the Senate to sign off on those changes. That won't be as easy as it sounds. Senate Republicans have indicated they will use any and all legislative tactics in order to slow -- even stop -- the reconciliation bill from passing. President Obama is expected to ...

If GWB did this there would be outrage (rightly so). ...

step down after next year. He's way too conservative for me, but apparently entirely too responsible and independent to suit the teapartiers and their backers. "In his retirement announcement, Mr. Chambliss expressed confidence that he would have beaten such foes, even as he voiced his frustration that compromise was increasingly impossible in Washington. “I have no doubt that had I decided to be a candidate, I would have won re-election,” he said. “Instead, this is ...

I'm tired of the obstruction. People are warning him this is going to harm the GOP, and they're right. It's hard enough to get anything done in goverment--and they call Democrats the mule? All I see is the GOP digging their feet in and refusing to cooperate. Normally I'd be all for the GOP making stupid decisions and guarenteeing a Dem win in 2016, but I'm tired of our politicians acting like children. Instead of building a better country, we have senators declar ...

Just heard on news that Cruz was Boehner's lawyer yet Cruz says he doesn't really know Boehner "Boehner referred to the arrangement in a January 23rd, 2014 appearance on Leno. It seems overwhelmingly likely that, given the fact that Ted Cruz worked as John Boehner’s lawyer, he has “worked” with him, and almost certainly does “know” him. The alternative, that Ted Cruz can’t remember the events of 1998, is almost more alarming than the bl ...
