Ted Cruz passes 17TH HOUR of epic filibuster against Obamacare

PUBLISHED: 18:38 EST, 24 September 2013 | UPDATED: 07:42 EST, 25 September 2013

Senator Ted Cruz, who vowed to speak out against Obamacare on the Senate floor 'until I am no longer able to stand', has slogged his way into a second day and shows no sign of relenting after speaking for more than 17 hours.
Cruz, who began at 2.41pm on Tuesday, is continuing his crusade to deny funding for Obama's overhaul of the U.S. healthcare system, branding it the country's 'biggest jobs killer'.
With no sign of stopping, Cruz has so far navigated disparate topics including the American revolution, sending a man to the moon, his Cuban-born father and the impact of the health care law.
