Cruz Control
Posted on September 26, 2013


I love Ted Cruz (R/Bellvue). He has simplified the explanation of what is wrong with the Tebagger wing of the GOP. His Darth-Vader-impersonations, Dr. Seuss-readings, and inevitable Nazi comparisons during his fake filibuster were more fun than a barrel of flying monkeys, and were useful to both political parties.

We should all thank him for doing the impossible – convincing the rest of the House Neocons to abandon their fruitless quest to overturn the Affordable Care Act and/or shut down the government.

Fellow Teabaggers consider him a traitor for so quickly admitting his risky scheme had zero chance of success in the Senate just as the Tetley set rushed to line up in full support his loony legislation. And it’s true, he threw the whole soggy lot into the harbor in an eye-blink. (Bless his black little heart).

But he’s also tossed a life preserver to House leaders Bohener and Cantor, who needed a nutcase to serve as a poster boy for idiocy of the extremists in their party to rally the more “mainstream” Republicans behind a more sensible solution to the current funding crisis.

For them, Cruz was a walking, talking, “I’m With Stupid” tee shirt.

In case you’ve beeaway from the telescreens over the last few days, Salon described Cruz’ floor show this way:

Thanks to Majority Leader Harry Reid, Cruz was given 21 hours in which to pretend to “filibuster” a Continuing Resolution until it was time for a cloture vote that Cruz has known all along that he would be unable to delay or block. Everyone knows this fun talk was entirely a waste of time. Everyone besides the people it’s actually aimed at: Right-wing Obamacare-hating Fox viewers who don’t understand how the Senate works. To them, it’s an inspiring Mr. Smith moment, and they took down the names of every Republican who didn’t #standwithCruz.

He thinks he’s quite smart, he’s clearly quite arrogant, and he doesn’t care whom he pisses off on the road to becoming the biggest conservative grass-roots hero in the country. Which, if he wasn’t already, he might be now that he’s wrapped up his heroic, entirely meaningless all-night talking jag against a cloture vote. (The fact that, near the end of his epic free-associative cri de coeur, Harry Reid offered Cruz at least another hour of floor time, knowing that Cruz would refuse it, was a funny end to the entire charade that few on the right will notice or remember.)

While you’re at the floral shop, toss in a fruit basket for Reid, too. This was played rather brilliantly by all sides.

THANK-YOU to our Kickstarter Backers!

Thanks to your incredible show of support, we have reached our very special stretch goal of $66,666! Saints be praised, it’s a progressive miracle! We had a simple plan for a $25,000 renovation, but you raised that amount in the first 24 hours (!)

Your overwhelming contributions told a different story. You wanted something bigger, and now we can deliver it. We have expanded our original plan to include three cameras – including a “Kathy cam” – which will give the new video show a more professional look and action and will greatly increase our chances of getting the show on a cable station.

And we want to show you how much we care about you by bringing you the best, most creative, informative, entertaining Malloy Video Show possible. It’s what you deserve and it’s our commitment to you, and the Truth.

This campaign proves that the Conservative noise machine is just plain wrong. People do want to hear two different points of view. You do want a complete marketplace of ideas. Progressives are complex individuals who value free speech and refuse to swallow the propaganda spoon-fed us by the corporate, or allow conservative talkers to bully us into “groupthink.”

Conservatives got the jump start on talk radio years ago and quickly appointed themselves the kings of the airwaves. That doesn’t mean it’s true. Progressives came late to the party, but listeners like you prove, everyday, that you are a force that demands equal time. Demands free speech and access to all voices and opinions.
With new digital media opportunities ahead, we can control the future of Progressive media. We are the Internet pioneers and with you behind us, we will spread the message that we are a Majority that will be silent no more!
You care. We care. And together we are legion. Spread the message of the success of this campaign to your friends and social media buddies. Tell the story. Kill the corporate-controlled message that progressive media is irrelevant. Let everyone know that you built this, and together we can make this the loudest, proudest progressive broadcast on the public airwaves.

Once again, you have prove that YOU, Truthseekers, are the most important element of the program! We cannot thank you enough!

Amen to that . . . .


-Mike, Kathy, Molly, and Rusty (the wonder dog)
