(WND) Following the epic 21 hour discussion by Sen Ted Cruz (R-TX) supporting the defunding of ObamaCare, voters made so many phone calls to establishment Republicans that either their phone lines melted or they took their phones off the hook.
Even in the age of digital wizardry and limitless voice mails, Constituents could not get through to at all with Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) a message said the ‘Senator was experiencing a high volume of phone calls’ and directed the public to call back later or visit his website.
It was the same story with RINO Sen John McCain (R-AZ) callers got a message that his mailbox was full.
Callers to Senate Minority Whip John Cornyn (R-TX) also got a message that the line was busy but at least those callers were sent to his voicemail.
Rep Peter King (R-NY) who called Senator Cruz a ‘fraud’ for his Yeoman efforts to defund ObamaCare said today that supporters of the Texas Senator have been bombarding his office with ‘vile’ phone calls:
“The vehemence of the phone calls coming into the office–I don’t care, people can call me whatever they want…I haven’t heard such vile, profane, obscene language…I’m not saying Ted Cruz is responsible for all his supporters but he has tapped into a dark strain here in the American political psyche here and again, the most obscene, profane stuff you can imagine all from people who say they support the Constitution–I think what we have to do is reach out to his people and let them know they are following a false leader,” Rep King said on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” this morning.
Senator’s Ted Cruz & Mike Lee (R-UT) have collected more than 1.8 Million signatures on their online petition Dont Fund ObamaCare site.
Following Sen Ted Cruz’s marathon address and colloquy with other Senator’s Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, Sen Mike Lee’s Communications Director Brian Phillips told World Net Daily “Its up to the American people now if they want their Senator to vote the right way, their Senator has to hear from them.”
In related news, The Weekly Standard reports Democrat West Virginia Sen Joe Manchin, has broke ranks with colleagues and says that he will support a delay in ObamaCare’s individual mandate.
