Ted Cruz BLINDSIDES Lifelong Politicians With New Measure That Could End Their Careers
February 19, 2019 Martin
 

Sen. Ted Cruz is going after Congress, and they are not going to be happy with the new measure that he has introduced.

As noted by the Houston Chronicle, the Texas Republican wants to place term limits on members of Congress.

 

Cruz and Florida GOP Rep. Francis Rooney introduced an amendment last week that would limit U.S. Senators to two 6-year terms and members of the U.S. House of Representatives to three 2-year terms.

If Cruz’s amendment to the U.S. Constitution were passed in Congress, it would only take effect after it is passed and signed into law.

This is some kind of political posturing since he has to know it will NEVER get through this house and is unlikely to get through the senate.  He'll be lucky if it comes to a vote in either chamber. tri22

I don't think it's political posturing but Ted knows perfectly well it won't pass now.

I think he's trying to call attention to this issue nationally so that the public may eventually get behind it.

It is direly needed.

We really need term limits when the speaker of the house doesn't know if its Thanksgiving or Valentines day.

   It wasn't too damn many years ago that this would have ended a Republican's career.



And it seems he is still more interested in that than securing the border.

‘Pro-Life’ Ted Cruz Skips Vote on Budget Amendment to Defund Planned Parenthood

A “true conservative” and alleged “pro-life” Senator skipped a crucial vote last week that would have given Republicans the opportunity follow through on the promise of defunding Planned Parenthood.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) opted to hit the campaign trail in Texas instead of voting on one of the top issues concerning his Republican constituents.

I understand the topic is a measure introduced by Ted Cruz.  Is that correct?

Good.  Let's stay on that topic and not rehash old hash.

If it's an amendment, it should.

And, yes, an amendment is always a long shot, but they've been passed, what 25 times before?

I think it will take an amendment.  I have a feeling the Ratification by the States would be a breeze, it's the Congress that won't let it happen.

Ted Cruz camp mocks Bible:

Always funny to watch the GOP eat their own.  Especially when Sen Cruz was a hero of the right 5 years ago.  I'm old enough to remember when he spent all summer promoting a government shutdown to try and stop Obamacare.  I know he didn't call it a shutdown he called it defunding Obamacare.  Sen Cruz thought Americans had principles and would fight for their freedom.  I would think the GOP would have a little gratitude to Cruz for showing Trump how stand up for America and fail with a shutdown.  I appreciate him.  Slapping President Trump around for repeating the history he forgot 5 years ago makes my life more exciting. 


www.youtube.com/watch?v=3cEr2NjxoJg

Then Sen Cruz spent the next year along with Breitbart, Freedomwatch, and the Senate Conservative Fund trying to primary the Senate swamp that abandoned him, since he couldn't really go after the American people.
The swamp didn't drain.

That's just how I saw it.  Let me know if you saw it differently.
