Last One Out Turn Off the Air Conditioning
Don’t ever approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or Ted Cruz from any direction.
He’s damned and determined to shut down the government over Planned Parenthood. His Republican colleagues are not overjoyed about this. Even his fellow Texan John Cornyn, who is no liberal firebrand, ain’t pleased.
“I think it’s nearly unanimous the view that a shutdown doesn’t defund Planned Parenthood, and it doesn’t help us maintain our majority so we can have some influence who the next members of the Supreme Court are and can elect a Republican president,” said Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX), the majority whip, according to CNN.
I will send that man a pecan pie if he pushes this. The GOP debate this week ought to be fun over this issue.
Honey, you could etch diamonds with his pointy hard head.
So much material, so little time.
1His last government shutdown was such a big success. It cost us billions and achieved nothing for anybody. I just wish it had been the October of a significant election year so people would have remembered who screwed us up for nothing.
Last time the government employees were reimbursed for their involuntary days off, but government contractors aren’t, and a good friend of mine is still bitter and now saving money to tide her over if it happens again.
These boys should go back to nursery school if they can’t quit throwing tantrums. Or at least hold their breath until their states turn blue.
2Crud’s thinking goes along the lines that a gubmint shutdown will help him win iowa caucus. Hope he is correct.
3This is all about control… In particular Cruz’s control of as much power as possible.
Dear Texas, won’t you please turn this creep into an ex-Senator gadfly like the faecal lube guy?
4Sinator Cornhole knows wingnuts have alot of influence on who doesn’t get appointed to the Scotus and other judicial fillings.
5At this point the rePUKEians are so full of BS, that if they stated that nazis were evil, I would except them as awesome good people!
6Sometimes context is everything.
Compared to Cruz, fellow Texan John Cornyn is, in fact, a liberal firebrand. Also, sane.
Of course, compared to Cruz Genghis Khan was a liberal firebrand and the Marquis de Sade had more progressive views on women’s right.
7Just look at his petulant face. I expect him to lie down on the floor and kick aNd hold his breath till he turns blue. Hurray for John Cornyn.
8I’m also thinking that the rich guys have bets on him and laughing and pointing. Wonder what he’s getting paid and by whom to throw this fit.
9Daffy the Dominionist makes Dr. Ben Carson appear sane. The crazy money behind Raphael Jr. is sponsored by the ilk of the Wilks. Guess that is what happens, when a candidate is too crazy for Koch sponsorship.
10I doubt any ‘non-pressure’ vessel like tedcruz’ head [typical reactionary can’t take pressure] is hard enough to use on diamonds … additionally their would then be something of a demand for tedcruz’ head. In supply side Economics their is a role for demand — but none for tedcruz’ head.
11Marge Wood … you probably wouldn’t have to look any further then the Koch Brothers if you really want to know who is funding the Cruz Missile.
12The look on that face! Did the space aliens forget to remove the anal probe? Again?
13Rhea: “…hold their breath ’til their states turn blue.”
14That’s brilliant. Keep ’em coming.
I must repeat: Stupid is expensive.
There must be some recourse, censure, fines, expulsion, for congress to bring down on the heads of these reprobates who waste our tax dollars on their own petulance. It is nothing more than extortion.
Ted Cruz is “damned and determined to shut down the government over” any light-his-hair-on-fire issue he can drum up in order to out-Trump Trump. Planned Parenthood is as good an issue as any in his fevered little imagination. If that edited tape hadn’t come out at the millisecond he was hunting for a scapegoat to hang yet another grandstanding on, he would have found something else.
Geeze, he is so **bleeping** [with a nod toward Momma – _I_ don’t want my mouth washed out with soap] predictable.
15Marcia in CO, the Koch brothers bet their wad on Snotty Wanker. Daffy Dominionist is subsidized by the Wilks brothers.

Gotta love the money kids blowing money on losers. Buy stock in antacids; Reince and his “outreach” are a sure bet in the antacids market.
16And what the bleep is all that buddy-buddy stuff with El Donaldo? Cruz looks like a pilot fish swimming along with a shark in hopes of at least getting a nibble on the best stuff the shark gnashes.
17@maggie, cartoonist Tom Toles had an explanation:

18JJ, if you send John Cornyn a pecan pie, don’t forget Ted Cruz. Send him a pie, too.
Only make it chocolate, like that special pie in the book and movie: “The Help.”
“A naahce slaahce of chocolate paah.”
Munch on that, Ted …
19This is about controlling women, not some (ahem!) trumped up concern over “life”. I’m still waiting for someone in the GOP to rain down on fertility clinics and their disposal of fertilized eggs.
