Ted Cruz Could Win the General Election

#75

Quote:1.  Yes, Ted Cruz influenced the House.  That's part of the reason why he's so hated now!  I mean, seriously, this  isn't ancient history.  It happened only 3 years ago.  You can google the timeline for yourself!

 

2.  JJ is wrong...  The one year delay was the 2nd attempt after the first attempt was rejected by the Senate (as everyone knew it would) and then sent back to the House.

 

Here's a link  http://www.npr.org/sections/itsallpoliti...n-timeline
 

 According to your link:

 

1.While Ted Cruz was part of the Heritage foundation presentation, jumping to the conclusion that he influenced the House is a reach. Lots of people lobbied for defunding Obamacare, and Cruz was a freshman senator. He had less influence in the House than just about every lobbyist in DC.


 

2. And the second House budget, which only included some delays that Obama eventually ended up instituting unilaterally, was in time to prevent a government shutdown but was rejected by the Harry Reid. Harry Reid is 100% responsible for the delay in salary of the government employees, and the loss of pay by contractor employees. He was the one who put his politicking ahead of the security of the government employees. Had he just passed the 2nd House bill everything would have ended up the same except there would have been no shutdown.


 

All that is in the link you provided.
