WASHINGTON (AP) — Calling their opponents Satan worshippers and savages, anti-abortion lawmakers are urging allies to support one of their own to run for the White House.

It was not long after President Barack Obama was reelected president that names for the 2016 race began to fly out as potential front runner.  However, Shreveport political consultant Elliott Stonecipher says none of those names will do the job.

After two weeks of trying to get a deal done to reopen the federal government and raise the debt ceiling, several Republicans have come out to question the motives of the Tea Party.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Republican Sen. Ted Cruz says he won't delay a vote on a bipartisan budget deal that will reopen the government and avoid a financial default.

Rush Limbaugh said that he has been trying to put his finger on where we are on what's going on in Washington with the government shutdown and debt limit. Rush told the audience he has confirmed what is going on, and it's about the Republican attitude, and it's so unnecessary. It's so defeatist.

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) did an interview with conservative radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh on Wednesday just after he finished doing his 21-hour filibuster against President Obama’s health care law.

On Tuesday (Sept. 24), U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) took action on the Senate floor with a filibuster against President Obama's health care law, also known as Obamacare. Senator Cruz wanted to continue funding the government and to defund Obamacare, which he believes hurts the American people.

With a week left to reach a deal needed to avoid a government shutdown, some lawmakers seem resigned — if not rushing — to that end.

Senator Ted Cruz proposed an immigration bill barring illegal immigrants from ever obtaining citizenship in the United States. Why do democrats not agree with such a bill? Because they would lose valuable, free-living voters, says Rush Limbaugh.
