Sen. Ted Cruz Predicts Gun Control Fight Will Give Republicans the Senate in 2014

Jan. 17, 2013 7:11pm Madeleine Morgenstern

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) on Thursday predicted President Barack Obama’s push for new gun control legislation will not only fail, but pave the way for Republicans to recapture the majority in the Senate in 2014.

“I think the consequence, I think he’s going to pay a serious political price,” Cruz said in a radio interview with conservative host Laura Ingraham. “And I think the price that’s going to be paid on this is going to manifest in Senate races in 2014.”

Cruz, who has been at the forefront of the anti-gun control fight, said the proposals coming from Obama and congressional Democrats are unconstitutional and “don’t work.” He said the president has “drunk the Kool-Aid” on gun control and is “high on his own power.”

“He is pushing on every front on guns, and I think it’s really sad to see the president of the United States exploiting the murder of children and using it to push his own extreme anti-gun agenda,” Cruz said.

The Tea Party-supported senator said it’s clear Obama will have a difficult time getting his proposals through Congress and will “decree it by executive order” instead — something that will cause a serious backlash at the polls.

“I think 2014 is going to be a very, very strong year for conservatives,” Cruz said. “I think we have a real possibility of picking up a majority in the Senate, and I think that will be driven in significant part by the fact that the next two years I think the president is going to continue to do what he’s doing now, which is overreaching and really believing that the nation has become far left. And that is not this country.”

Our Trolls sound a tad desperate by writing comments which are totally unrelated to others’ comments, just angry and nasty and seem to be ” baiting” a response. Remind me of the Chicago radicals trying to ” bait” the gun issue . Martial Law anyone ?! Big Brother would loooove to get rid of your guns!

They just occasionally change their names, but not their comments. Mostly the juvenile, arrogant smears give them away. What a sad group of angry losers – Obama’s dysfunctional base.

Pres. Wm. Jefferson Clinton readily concedes that the last AWB cost the Demos the House and Senate. When you trash the Bill of Rights, fail to “protect & defend,” you lose your seat at the table of representative government.

I think Congress needs to impeach.

  As for Obama:
  
  “He has aided our enemies, violating his oath, by sending funds to insurgents in Syria who are being commanded by Al-Qaeda terrorists.
  
  He has violated federal law by overseeing a cover-up surrounding Operation Fast and Furious, the transfer of guns to Mexican drug cartels direct from the federal government.
  
  He has lied to the American people by overseeing a cover-up of the Benghazi attack which directly led to the deaths of four American citizens.
  
  He has brazenly undermined the power of Congress by insisting his authority came from the UN Security Council prior to the attack on Libya and that Congressional approval was not necessary.
  
  He has flagrantly violated article 1, section 9, clause 8 of the Constitution by accepting rotating status as chairman of the UN Security Council.
  
  He has ignored Congressional rejection of the cybersecurity bill and instead indicated he will pursue an unconstitutional EO.
  
  He has signed into law the NDAA which includes provisions that permit the abduction and military detention without trial of US citizens, violating Habeas Corpus.
  
  He has declared war on America’s coal industry by promising to bankrupt any company that attempts to build a new coal plant while using unconstitutional EPA regulations to strangle competition.”

First: I’m very happy to have this man for my senator.

Second: Its beginning to sound like Obama’s gun control is going to end up in Harry Reid’s dead on arrival file. Old Harry’s Las Vegas union thugs wouldn’t be able to pull his bacon out of the fire if he voted for gun control. After all it’s still Nevada.

Not saying we can breath easy or let up the pressure. If you haven’t joined the NRA why? If you are not a member of Gun Owners of America why? Call your congressman Call your senator. Let them know you expect them to live up to their oath and defend the Constitution, the Second Amendment and vote against this assault on our rights!

  I was taking a conceal carry class last weekend in what would be considered a blue state university town and was delighted to see how totally crowded it was for one thing and how many senior women were there. And the whole class had either already joined NRA or signed up before leaving that day. I guess this is a right that just shall not be infringed. It’s amazing. Just the fact that Obama would even try this is surprisingly offensive move has turned the tide against him. Oh well, pride goes before the fall. He didin’t think it would sting him.

It’s too early to make a prediction like this. Problem is, yeah, the republicans will get a lot of votes out of the gun fight, problem is, just like last year they will think they are going to win hands down and so will take on stupid fights like abortion, or social security reform and scare all the elderly and the poor, back into Obama’s camp.

  Keaton- you’re an idiot. As usual, the liberal disease does not allow rational nor comprehensive thought. His original statement said those who DONT pay taxes should not be allowed to vote. Not “states”. Its your lameazz 99% of demonrats that don’t pay taxes. If you get back more than you paid in, no vote for you! Regardless of party. ALL of those receiving something from the guberment (that they didn’t pay in/not “entitled” too) voted for Obummer and you know it. But again, your disease renders you incapable of rational thought & facts, so I guess we should send you a helmet, courtesy of MY tax dollars so you don’t injure yourself further….

  WHOA! Hey man, I live in a blue state, so if they excluded them I’d be all for it. I appreciate the honesty. Can we at LEAST agree that the countries spending has gone WAY out of control? Seriously, we are on a crash course and no matter our ideologies, with the exceptions of democrats in office, Id like to think we are ALL Americans and cherish this country and the principles it was created on and most certainly don’t want to see it fall- yes?

California has been screaming about Texas for a while now. There was a time when the blue states kept a boot on the neck of the red states keeping businesses out. But, currently your own actions are financially killing you guys right now.

  @ Keaton- I have NO PROBLEM, and neither do the rest of us, with background checks!!! The slippery slope comes into play when you say that a 90 yr old grandpa needs to do a back ground check on his grandson to pass down a heirloom. Trust me, those in rural areas WILL NOT sell their guns to someone they don’t know, nor trust, so this so-called back ground check issue is moot.
  I couldn’t go to Tennessee for example (being from IL) and buy a gun from a local- they wouldn’t sell me one, let alone, and lets be real here, a black gangster…. Besides, I go through a back ground check every single time i buy a gun. So whats the issue???

To Whom It May Concern:
With everything that is going on with the threat of people loosing there rights,some have already lost them like me..yes i was a bad kid,but
when will i be a freeman.

I first ask for someone to please show me where in our founding fathers papers it states.”the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall
not be infringed accept if the goverment should pass a law that can restrict our right to keep and bear arms anyway they see fit”
It does not say this,it doesnt say criminals,simply put it says,
“THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO KEEP AND BEAR ARMS SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED” (tHE SUPREME COURT JUST SAID IT AN INDIVIDUALS RIGHT..)
The second point i wish to make is that the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution,nor prohibited by it to the States,are
reserved to the states respectively,or to the people.
Please correct me if i am wrong but what part of “The Right of the People to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed”is hard to
understand?
It is in the Constitution!!,so that would mean that every gun law that any state has is unconstitutional becase the Constitution gives us those
rights and the states cannot make laws that go against the CONSTITUTION…
The third point is The enumeration in the constitution,of certain rights,Shall not be construed to deny or disparge others retained by the
people.
What is the bill of rights and what are inaleinable rights?Rights t

  @Keatonc333,
  
  Once again you have the way things are supposed to work correct but “how” they are now working wrong. Obamascare went to the Senate as a 2300 page Bill. It came out of the Senate a 2700 page Bill. Did it go back to the House for passage? Nope. It was “deemed” to still be the same Bill and “passed” on to the White House.
  
  All the EO’s Obama is writing that spend money are not passed by the House either.
  
  Obama’s Job Act was written by the White House. It had money allocated for spending in it. All Bills regarding spending money are supposed to be written (start) in the House. This is not happening so you can’t blame the House for Bills that they neither write or pass.

  Hi MONK, One little correction on 0bamascare. It started in the Senate, and went to The House where they made changes. Teddy (Chappaquiddick Killer) Kennedy had died and Scott Brown won the special election. Nancy In The Sky With Diamonds held the bill in the House since Brown had vowed to be the death knell vote for it in the Senate. It was in the House where it was simply deemed past. Had it returned to the Senate as it should it would not have passed. Then Justice Roberts pulled a strange one saying that the bill was a tax and okayed it. Strange since a tax bill should have been started in the House. But hey, the Supreme Court at one time said that slavery was okay too. What can we expect from them?

  you should probably have a clue what your talking about before making such statements. the “pork” was money that was supposed to go to damaged fisheries in Alaska and the gulf coast. The house passed a trimmed down sandy relief bill that excluded this “pork” already passed, NO pork! But the fact that one of the largest storms in a generation can hit America and do some much damage and then we actually have elected officials voting against helping the sandy victims! thats truly despicable!

  You know KeatonC33 your really should just change your name to LibProgLackey. Did you even bother to read the link to the bill that I provided? I highly doubt it. No pork huh? BS!! The impetous for passing this bill was to provide immediate support to those that lost everything due to Sandy, but there are provision after provision stuffed into it that have nothing to due with directly helping those that were affected. Under the guise of providing direct emergency aid for those that are in desparate need of assistance the progressives packed it with totally unneeded spending for their special interest groups. Monies that will have to be borrowed, as it is completely unfunded. This is why so many Republicans opposed its passage, not because they’re heartless and unfeeling. So in light of this valid opposition to adding to our exploding national debt for you to call them despicable shows how you progressives use nothing but emotion in order to bolster your argument. To hell with the facts, to hell with the truth, to hell with the reality of adding more and more debt and the implications of it, it’s more important to keep up appearances. You and those like you are cowards because for you its more important to hold onto power through hollow empty promises and backroom deals to special interests that will have long lasting consequences for generation after generation. You are robbing from the future with no reguard at all and that is what is truely despicable.

  Do you really believe that? do you have any idea how crazy you sound? You think Obama is capable of some sweeping imprisonment of the american people? good lord, he couldn’t even get Obamacare passed without going to court. Don’t let your fear control you man. especially such irrational fear!

Ted Cruz is an outstanding conservative. We are lucky to have him on our team to fight against the overthrow of our country by Obama’s radical left AND the co conspirator media.

Huge fan of Cruz and I hope he is right but sounds too much like because of what all obama was doing we would take the Whitehouse and Senate and keep the house. Well we did manage to keep the house but even lost some there. Gonna take a lot more then this to convince me. First and foremost there is nobody, that I know of, working of ending the massive voter fraud that goes on and barry and his minions will still have all their ground covered.

  Y’all come to Texas, state official tells New York gun owners
  http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/01/17/us-usa-guns-texas-idUSBRE90G1DA20130117
  
  “Texas is better than New York, and New York just gave us another excuse to say that,” Abbott, a Republican, said on Thursday, after ads extolling Texas appeared on several media websites.
  One ad says in classic Western script: “WANTED: Law abiding New York gun owners seeking lower taxes and greater opportunities.”

He won’t allow the oil companies to drill on public land and he’s forcing so called green energy BS programs that will never be viable.

Given the Stark Naked FACT what we are REALLY talking about is an infringement/abridgement/abrogation of our GOD ENDOWED UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, does anyone find Glenn’s Jesus/Gandhi Non-violence shtick a Cognitive Dissonance of Clinical Denial proportions?
Is anyone buying his premise of The Founders’ “long suffering patience” with such attempted abrogations of THEIR Sacred Liberties?

Between The Sugar and Currency Acts (1764), the Stamp Act (65) which provoked street violence, etc and the Killing Fields at Lexington and Concord was a barely a decade. We’ve been being Victimized by the Tyranny of DC, enabled by our Fellow Dumbcits, since TEDDY and WILSON! A CENTURY of “long suffering”!

“Patience” as an EXCUSE for Moral and Intellectual COWARDICE?

Washington, upon receiving the news of Lexington and Concord at Mt. Vernon, wrote to a friend: “The once-happy and peaceful plains of America are either to be drenched in blood or inhabited by slaves. Sad alternative, but can a virtuous man hesitate in his choice?”

Apparently Glenn believes Hesitation, in this case a CENTURY of it, IS Virtuous.

Theologically, and my M.Div. from Duke gives me street cred for such a critique, Glenn has placed himself in what a British Thinker called a “logical cleft stick”.

Either Glenn believes The Founders were CORRECT when they, in Justification for Armed Rebellion, asserted, in implication if not clear language, “killing Tyrants and Tyrant Enablers is ob

  —————————————————————-
  To a degree, yes. The concept being is that in the end you need to be able to remain blameless.
  The Founders exhausted all possibilities prior to violence. That is the point.
  
  http://www.archives.gov/exhibits/charters/declaration_transcript.html
  “But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.–Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having in direct object the establishment of an absolute Tyranny over these States. To prove this, let Facts be submitted to a candid world.”

  I tell you this. If I were sitting in the Congress I would draft an edict not altogether unlike what
  I quoted above. Make it plain, make it blunt and make a demand —– then list the grievances
  just like the original Declaration. Then broadcast it far and wide for ALL the people to see.
  
  Put them on formal notice and then start counting —–

Why should we believe a single word this man says? Why should we believe a single word printed on this website? Glenn Beck made a fool of himself when he pretty much assured Americans that Obama would lose the 2012 election by a landslide. As far as Republicans winning the Senate in 2014? I’ll believe that if and when I see it.

You’ve got Dingy Harry Reid and even the likes of Al Franken along with other Dem-wits who have constituents who shoot are shying away from this millstone. Both Al and Reid will be seeking re-election in 2014.

  It appears to me we should join the current hysteria and suggest
  the evidence shows that all registered Democrats should have their guns confiscated.
  We know who they are- ~ they’re registered!
  
  Ft Hood~~~ Registered Democrat ~ Muslim
  Columbine ~~~ Too young to vote; both families were registered
  Democrats and progressive liberals
  Virginia Tech ~~~ Wrote hate mail to President Bush and to his staff ~
  Registered Democrat
  Colorado Theater ~~~ Registered Democrat; staff worker on the Obama
  campaign; Occupy Wall Street participant;
  progressive liberal
  Connecticut School Shooter- ~~~ Registered Democrat; hated Christians,
  Common thread is that all of these shooters were progressive liberal Democrats.”

  Amazing isnt it?
  4+ YEARS of 8% or more unemployment, 4+ YEARS without a Federal budget [illegal], record welfare enrollments, etc ——
  
  He’s “going to throw the FULL POWER of the office” behind gun control —— why does the Kenyan not
  address the economy with this urgency and power? Because he doesnt want to?
  
  This isnt right and it will not stand. We cannot allow this to continue.
