Even Cruz told Cruz to STFU.

Hence it was a giant waste of time and can hardly even be called posturing. Essentially it was just being an attention seeking ass move.

Yup. He wants to be the right wing choice in 2016. He knows he won't get the nomination, but he can always cash out like Palin after his first term and get paid by the right wing media. Cynical a$$hole. They already told all the contractors at the agency we contract with to take our shyt home on Monday.

100-0? did Cruz vote for himself?
No, he had told Harry Reid ahead of time that he wasn't really fillibustering and Reid had set a date for when the vote would occur. Cruz got up there and decided to talk for 21 hours before the time the actual vote was scheduled. No one ever actually expected a fillibuster. That's why it was stupid posturing at its finest.

^This. Sarah Palin, Herman Cain, Michelle Bachmann now Ted Cruz. I guess the GOP will create at least one of these people every election cycle.

The vote was 100-0, not 99-0 or 99-1

I work as an IT contractor for a couple of agencies in DC. If the government shuts down, we are not allowed to go back to work since we are not deemed as essential, so we will probably have to take our vacation time while the government is shut down.

It sucks because we have a contract that runs till the end of 2014 but while the government is shut down, we can't work and get paid.

That's some ridiculous shyt man. I keep telling all you east coast cats to come out west. Cheap living decent pay. During downtime like that if you play it right your shyt is paid for and you can fall back on a nest egg.
