Given the Trump administration's call for military action in NK, Argentina and Iran in addition to our present commitments I'd say this is unlikely to cover it :shrug:

   What is it with you Trumpers tonight @DCPatriot I explained up thread my intentions and they were not malicious at all. I am fully aware that RiV is a LADY and as far as crapping on this thread in post 2, since everybody seems to be a damn snowflake tonight, I am guilty as charged. In my defense you sensitive types need to come to grips with what really ailes you and quite taking it out on me, I too can be very sensitive and am prone to get my panties in a wad.

   Another thing in my defense, I am following the Carmelo Anthony trade to the Rockets this weekend on my other Forum and I may be a bit absent minded here, I play and debate here, never insult.  go grab a cup of covfefe and chill, please.

Actually, I was smiling when I posted that because, after all....POST #2.

Other than that, I have no problem with you, sir.    @corbe

   Both @libertybele and I thank you @montanajoe for getting this Thread I so screwed up back on track.

   @Right_in_Virginia your valiant attempt at trolling this very excellent Cruz Thread are an abomination on the very character of this Forum and quite frankly, Boring.



 :tongue2:

I am not grumpy.  I think the bored baby sloth is adorable.

It is surprising that Right in Virginia has anything good to say about Cruz or even Republicans.  I guess we can all agree that funding our military is important.
AG William Barr: "I'm recused from that matter because one of the law firms that represented Epstein long ago was a firm that I subsequently joined for a period of time."

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Thanks for making my point, snowflake.

@mystery-ak already 'warned' both of us in a very nice manner.   Yet you continue to act like an a$$ and push it.

If that's being a "snowflake"?     :shrug:

   See, @DCPatriot  all this damn sensitivity is starting to rub off on me and unfortunately I had some friends over tonight and they drank all my beer. I have no cure for my crankiness.

@corbe
You said others were being sarcastic but that may not really be the situation, I'm almost surprised to see one actually agreeing with Cruz. 

As an example, the current healthcare repeal bills, Cruz has voted for these 2 or 3 different times.

What was the baiting that just happened yesterday, Oh, Mitt Romney, "another Northeastern liberal", hey, but don't mention the fact, that Ted Cruz endorsed him....  22222frying pan

So, I definitely can question some motives where it seems someone might never even agree with Cruz; but use it to attack others.

Tom, Tom, Tom.  Let's see ... the choice was between Bammy or Romney or Independent in 2012.  Hint ... Cruz sure as heck wasn't going to endorse Bammy.

BTW Romney also endorsed Cruz.  Personally, I like Romney. There are some issues that I disagree with him on but for the most part I like him above most of the GOPe.

Do we get a thread on each of the other 88 senators that also voted in favor of this bill?

Corbe ... you are getting cranky again.  Why don't you wait until RIV actually trolls before chastising him.

That’s exactly what I was thinking when I read that gratuitous remark. Methinks someone is acting unnecessarily defensive there.

   H3ll, I wasn't even trying to derail this Thread, BUT had I not successfully failed at doing so one of you Trumpers would have done it, it's no secret yall don't like positive news about Sen Cruz and usually get Threads about him locked or obliterated beyond recognition. 
   Have a piece of pahkahn Pie and chill.
