Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Sunday warned Senate Republicans that refusing to filibuster a bill that defunds President Barack Obama’s health care reform law “is a vote for Obamacare,” and he also advised House Republicans to “shut down the military” if they had to.
After a summer of insisting that Republicans should pass a budget that would defund Obamacare or shut down the government if the president refused to sign it, Cruz got exactly what he wantedlast week. House Republicans rallied behind a continuing resolution that stripped funding from the Affordable Care Act, but Senate Democrats were expected to add funding back or refuse to pass the measure.In a Sunday interview, Cruz told Fox News host Chris Wallace that Senate Republicans should stand together and refuse to vote for cloture by filibustering if Democrats added Obamacare funding to the bill.
this guy is a lunatic he wants to be Pres. how can you conceive of shutting down the military under any circumstance especially when we are at the front door of possible conflicts on several fronts.
“Any vote for cloture, any vote to allow Harry Reid to add funding to Obamacare with just a 51-vote threshold, a vote for cloture is a vote for Obamacare,” Cruz insisted. “And I think Senate Republicans are going to stand side-by-side with Speaker [John] Boehner and House Republicans, listening to the people and stopping this train wreck that is Obamacare.”
note; it has been referred to as train wreck, failed my favorite an abomination, it has not taken place yet how does it get so many derrogatort tags? their own have climbed on board because they know as yo should after 5 yrs. ObamaCares, again they with such conviction have reviewed, passed judgement on a law that has no yet begun, that makes them all clairvoyant or lying ass republicans, i going for the latter
