Tuesday, during an HSGAC subcommittee hearing, we saw a singular Senator, Rand Paul (R-KY), stand up to defend one of America's greatest success stories, Apple, from foolish, bullying, coalescent warriors in President Obama's war on success, namely Carl Levin (D-MI) and John McCain (R-AZ)...

Both Paul and Ted Cruz (R-TX) have taken on McRINO over the past several days in a bigger matter than this: the U.S. Budget. All they ask is that the debt ceiling debate be handled separately from a budget bill, while McRINO and establishment allies are fine with allowing all of it to skyrocket on a simple majority vote, instead of the required 2/3 vote (FYI, Democrats have held the majority over the past 6 years in the Senate). Here's a few of the exchanges...
Paul tangles with McRINO on the same day of the Apple hearings:
And now we won't go to the ball...listen the way McRINO whines. Meanwhile...
Cruz to McRINO: "I don’t trust the Republicans" to hold the line...
Neither do the we, Ted.
Then for the second day in a row, Cruz continues to dig at McRINO: "There may be more ‘wacko birds’ in the Senate than is suspected," stated that some (uhum, McLame) would rather cast a symbolic vote against the debt ceiling without actually trying to stop it...
And Ted's addressing the biggest wacko bird in McRINO, that's for certain!
Here are two men who want to get a hold of the reigns on this runaway government, starting with limits on spending...yet, within their own ranks, lies a tired, old career politician, who's thoroughly proving himself to be every bit of the statist that he's enabled Democrats to be for years.
Arizona, why did you send this RINO back to Washington, when you should have returned him to the great wide open? If this man, along with most on Capitol Hill, had to live among the rest of us, well, let's just say you'd see an acceptable budget with a closure to out-of-control spending.
ADDENDUM: McRINO also turned his anger towards stalwart conservative Mike Lee (R-UT), saying that he 'ought to learn' how the Senate operates. Pardon me, your Maverickship, but that's precisely what's wrong on Capitol Hill!
I keep asking myself, 'When's this guy gonna pull a Specter?' Certainly loathes conservatives in his party. Pathetic.
