Watched it for 2 minutes before I got sick of it but cspan's website has what you need.

God I'm thankful that I live in a state with sane senators.

 

I am with you. His rendition of 'Green Eggs n Ham' really fired me up.

I was torn but now.......Up with hope, down with ACA!

 

So you didn't like it when Wendy Davis did it, but when Ted Cruz is doing it then you "love" it?

 

So Green Eggs and Ham is "germane" to this discussion?

 

It's morning and TED CRUZ is still going! We are witnessing history

#MAKEDCLISTEN

 

If you are insured, access to health care is yes limited by the service available. In general that's not an issue in the US.

If you are not insured, access to health care is only available through ER and free clinics or if you can pay upfront (most uninsured can't )

It seems you are only thinking about access from the perspective of those that are insured and not from those that are not.

 

Wow, there is jumping the shark and then there is Ted Metro Cruz.

What does Maked Clisten mean, btw? What kind of winger code is that?

 

He's gonna be president for sure!

 

"First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win." - Mahatma Gandhi

 

That quote is up there with that r****ded Franklin "liberty security" quote in bull****.

 

republicans should work with democrats to adjust and fine tune the ACA as it's real world issues become revealed.

I'm sure they will do what's right to make it the best it can be for the American people.

 

Worked so well for Michelle Bachmann. And Santorum. And Herman Cain. And the millions of other people that have been ignored, laughed at, fought, and then lost.

 

I see through quoted posts that Ted Metro is being compared to Gandhiji. Such a workable comparison, aside from their most fundamental beliefs and the fact that Gandhi didn't wear eye-liner. Otherwise, perfect fit!

 

#1 trending topic on Twitter today: Obamacare

Cruz is raising awareness to the disastrous policy ramrodded down our throats by the democrats and obama

 

That's good, because right now it's being revealed, and instead of fighting obscurity, Ted Cruz is now fighting math.

 

westboro baptist church elected presidents

 

Awesome. Even more people are going to be aware that the exchanges open next month.

 

Several things, I have respect for anyone that can stand for almost an entire day and ramble, whatever the cause. Cruz did what the senate was created for, discussion and debate, so that's fine. All this being said, it amounts to nothing, just as Rand Paul and Davis' filibusters did. Cruz's isn't a filibuster but same difference.

What I don't like is that there seems to be a little trend that this grandstanding is beig used to elevate people's position. After Davis it was, will she run for office yada yada. Can't fault them for looking out for their own interests I just hope they care about what they are talking about and don't want to sacrifice time governing for their own benefit.

 

Davis was fighting for something she personally believed in.

The grandstanding by Cruz had nothing to do with healthcare reform and all about elevating his status with the crazies and self promotion. Even his own party was against what he did.
