lawrocket 3 #4 September 25, 2013 Hey - the Democrats got the unions to actively lobby for a union-busting bill. It's enough to make the unions throw some support behind Republican candidates. Hahhaha! I slay me. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanG 1 #7 September 25, 2013 Cruz is making an ass of himself. It's just BS grandstanding for the right wingers back home and in the 2016 primary voting booth. This stunt will backfire on him in the long run. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,446 #11 September 25, 2013 That is a valid comparison, and a valid point. Thanks. Doesn't change my opinion , but I really appreciate the opportunity to question myself. Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

DanG 1 #17 September 25, 2013 QuoteDid you disagree with her stance? I didn't disagree with her stance. In fact, I supported her stance. I've never commented on her stunt in the Texas legislature. I don't live in Texas, and never would, so I frankly don't give a shit if she wastes the time of the Texas legislature. I do, however, live in America, and don't enjoy watching one doofus waste the time of the US Senate for no other reason that looking good to his right wing base. If it were a Democrat doing a stupid fauxlibuster over something I agreed with, I'd feel the same way. How about you? Do you support Cruz's antics, but not Davis's? - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DanG 1 #21 September 25, 2013 QuoteYou use the tools available, right? That's one way of looking at it. I didn't say he was breaking the law. I just said he was making an ass of himself. There were many more productive ways he could have proceeded, especially considering his filibuster wasn't even a real filibuster. You can simultaneously be acting within the legal system, and be an ass. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
