Let's go back to the beginning of the Obama administration, when Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama led NATO in toppling the government in Libya. They did it because they wanted to promote democracy.

Ted CruzThe judgment that every voter is making of every one of us [running for presidency] who has the experience, who has the vision, who has the judgment to be commander in chief.

And when it comes back to the Senate, after the House stands their ground yet again, we will have an opportunity for Republicans to come home.
