“The senior senator from Arizona urged this body to trust the Republicans,” Cruz said, referring to Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). “Let me be clear, I don’t trust the Republicans. I don’t trust the Democrats and I think a whole lot of Americans likewise don’t trust the Republicans or the Democrats because it is leadership in both parties that has got us into this mess.”
wow, boy wonder is feeling his Cheerio's. with the loaded hits to his own party albeit true don't think they are going to smile and annoint him in 2016, or is this a not so clever ploy to appear they are changing and it's at the feet of Cruz, just doesn't have that ring of right wing "we hate Hispanics".
The issue of whether to send the Senate budget to conference with the House is sharply dividing Senate Republicans, with some agreeing with the Senate Democratic leadership that they should be following “regular order” and working with the other chamber. This is the first time that the Senate has passed a budget in four years, although it differs significantly from the House-passed version, sponsored by Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.).
they spent almost 5 years ranting about Dems and no budget could this be a reason why, they do it? and voila they oppose it like every other bill or legislation coming from Progrssives.
On Wednesday, McCain delivered a scolding criticism of fellow Republicans for trying to block Democratic efforts.“Let’s put some confidence in if not in the conferees appointed here, but in the conferees who will be appointed on the other side of the Capitol, who are of our party, who are fiscal conservatives just like we are,” McCain said on the Senate floor. “Instead of blocking, what I assure my colleagues — all three of them here, that is a minority of the minority of Republicans in the United States Senate — that [a majority] want to move forward with a budget which we spent so many hours and so much effort in achieving.”
McCain kinda made a good plea to the do nothings but for the rest of us he made it even more scary
“Let’s put some confidence in if not in the conferees appointed here, but in the conferees who will be appointed on the other side of the Capitol, who are of our party, who are fiscal conservatives just like we are,”
by virtue of that we can only expect more of te same or worse, hmmmm was that the real message he was giving?
