There should always be a "final option" if the person you elected outright lied to you about their intentions.

What lie did Cornyn tell?

Chas.

That he would vote to defund obamacare, then vote FOR cloture so that the dems would win, and he would get a political "no" vote on the final bill.......

You worry me chaz.

Please link to a post where Sen. Cornyn said he'd vote to defund Obamacase.

Based upon what!?

Chas.

His refusal to even try.

Try what? Don't give general comments, please give specific details as to what would justify a recall.

Chas.

If we can find a Cruz to replace Cornyn I am al in with replacing him. I wish we could get them all to be like Cruz. The ones like Mcpain need to retire. Like TAM says it is time to stand up an fight.

I was listening to the Wells report on the way home today and a caller said the same thing, to recall Cornyn. JD Wells said you can't recall at Fed level. He also said the Tx primaries are in march and there is nobody to run against him or could even do so in the short time, long story short he ain't goin nowhere.
