And the GOP continues the never ending “I’ve got mine- eff you!” routine.
Republicans Scrambling…
That happens when no viable plans are available…
It’s tough to change from making President Obama a one termer.
In a perfect world, Ted, you’d be sweeping horseshit off the streets in Havana.
Republicans haven’t shown an alternative health insurance plan yet that is worth considering. They haven’t shown interst in crafting one. What they do want in my estimation is health care only for those who can afford it out of pocket. They don’t want to lessen the cost of insurance or what companies can offer. They also don’t give a damn about the actual cost of medical procedures. Example: the cost of my total knee replacement was $67,000 according to the hospital bill. 55 miles to my south in Nogales, Mexico I could get the same procedure with the same surgeon and adequate hospital facilities for $2500-$4000.
Cruz is one of those who doesn’t give two shits about anything other than himself.
Why is it that these ultra-conservative psychopaths feel that what is most important is to adhere to narrow interpretations of the constitution and what their plutocrat owners dictate to them?
Whatever happened to doing what is best for the common good?
I guess looking to these boot lickers, the “common good” sounds like communism.
The sad thing is, if SCOTUS rules against the ACA, the millions of red necks who would instantly lose coverage would still vote for this asshole.
I wonder …the republicons thought the individual mandate was such a wonderful thing …just ask newtty gingrich and mittens romney now all of a sudden they don’t like it hmmmmm what is it that they don’t like about it … oh yeah Obama liked it too
Even with all the jerks out there, I can’t even think of another politician who I find so viscerally repellant as Cruz. Seriously, just seeing a picture of the guy brings up my gag reflex.
Is this Texass hick for anything that would help the people…???
He is a bugger for attention but a do nothing overall!
Artemisia,
I guess this is what is supposed to qualify as that “compassionate conservatism” George Bush spoke about.
Between Cruz, his troglodyte friends, their wish for health care for the rich only, and Pat Robertson’s comments about the death of a 3 yr old I’m seeing a definite trend here. Heartless unadulterated contempt for ordinary people. It would be in everyone’s clear self interest to NOT vote for any republican. They’re a cancer on America’s body politic.
Thank you, Ted. For now, the Republican party can take the blame for the fallout that will surely occur, and rightly so.
It’s as if the Republican party won your hunting sweepstakes, and you just shot them in the face. Actually, I’m surprised they passed a background check.
A man of principle. You can always count on Ted Cruz to take a firm, principled stand, no matter what the fallout, right up until the point that doing so has adverse consequences for Ted Cruz.
The way I see it, what they want to do is take us back to at least the 1870’s. The problem with that is that a modern economy does not work well under those circumstances.
The real Ted Cruz has an image kinda like “the Picture of Dorian Gray” movie of decades past. Here’s the real Ted Cruz (and sorry about the gag reflex):
Of course he does!
He’s at the top “have I mine, you can go screw” gop/bags in the senate.
Yet, this guy wants to be POTUS! meh
My question is… do people on capital hill already know how the court ruled? Its a huge secret to keep for months.
More like a cross between Joseph McCarthy and Bela Lugosi.
Ted Cruz = KOTPP. That would be "King of the Pig People."
