It’s unfortunate to see the Republican leadership cutting a deal with Harry Reid and the Democrats to surrender the fight on executive amnesty. We should be honoring the commitments we made. We should be standing up in unison against President Obama’s executive amnesty.

Several months ago I called for Republicans in Congress to use every constitutional check and balance we had to rein in the president’s lawlessness. That includes using the confirmation authority that the Constitution gives the Senate.

In particular, I called for the Senate Republican Majority Leader to announce that we would not confirm a single nominee—executive or judicial—other than vital national security positions unless and until President Obama rescinds his illegal and unconstitutional executive amnesty. I also believe we should use the power of the purse, that we should use the most potent tool the framers gave us to refuse to fund the lawless action. Unfortunately, Republican leadership is not honoring those commitments.


This. In spades.

Cruz is actually one of only a small handful of people we elect that actually does what he was elected to do, and with thought to his constituents.

The rest of the idiots don't have balls that have dropped yet.
