If it weren’t for open immigration policies, Cruz would have been born in Castro’s Cuba instead of Canada.

Holder could really have some fun with this.

With a majority in the Senate the Tea Bag caucus of the GOTP (Which numbers approximately 52 members.) will have the freedumb to let their inner insanity out. Maybe the next two years will be a great opportunity for the Teahadists to jump the shark big time.

Holder can threaten the Repub numbskulls with two more years as AG if Lynch is not confirmed.

Cruz is a loud idiot.

So…explain to me again how the GOP plans to compromise and work with the President?

I’ve got a better idea…Obama has the authority to force Congress out of session. He should do it and just recess appoint Lynch. While he’s at it, maybe recess appoint Cruz to be ambassador to East Timor.

This is an easy place for Obama and Reid to assert themselves. Get this done, now, in this Congress. Make a big fight out of it. When the Republicans get furious, go on the tube extolling her qualities and then noting, as an aside, that the Republicans impeached Bill Clinton in a lame duck Congress. Just saying.

Yes, there’s been an election, but the current Senators are still Senators.

And how is Obama expected to fix the douchenozzes who pull this kind of stunt?

From a Senator who has been out of session and on vacation most of the year. Perhaps if they were in session more these things would wait until the end of the year.

Cruz and Lee are the best hope for progressives in the next Congress. I urge them to speak their minds, loudly, boldly, frequently. The nation needs to hear what they have to say. Seriously. Wind them up, feed them well, let them speak…and blow the Republicans into Wasillaville.

Canadian Carnival Cruz and the Bagger Buttwipes (*sounds like a GOP musical group on K Street) wouldn’t be happy and would stall out of pure instinct and reflexive hatred…and would probably stall if the President nominated Alberto Gonzales or John Yoo.

Loretta Lynch is a very capable ‘doer’ and fearless, so she was probably DOA with this idiotic GOPig gaggle from the start.

The President is also playing with the RepubliKKKlans. Obama’s just saying “C’mon, you bastards. I dare ya. I double-dare ya.” and with Cruz already weighing in this way, it’s already working.

The internal wranglings of the Grand Olde Pricks’ party will be epic and, hopefully, very destructive. MMMMM…pass the popcorn.

Does McCarthy Cruz really think he can create an oligocracy/theoarchy? Have at it.

The new lady farmer/Senator from Iowa has agreed to let Cruz be her mentor, and what she has learned so far is this. “Do as I don’t do and you’ll fine.”

Got to love the language, as always with Cruz. No one has ever said anything about amnesty but you have got to get those low information voters all fired up

He will need it by the time he leaves the public stage.
