Ted Cruz Is Living On Another Planet

This morning, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) spoke to the Values Voters Summit, and his speech was really weird. It's like he's living on another planet.

On Planet Cruz, there is a massive outpouring of public support for a government shutdown over Obamacare and it's scaring the hell out of Democrats.

Read how Cruz describes the view from his corner of the universe:

The nice thing is the left will always, always, always tell you who they fear. And they fear you. They fear the American people.

The fundamental problem in Washington is Washington is not listening to America. And what happens? This fight on Obamacare, we went and made the case to the American people, launched a national website: dontfundit.com. In a matter of just a few weeks, over 2 million Americans signed that petition on dontfundit.com.

(along with Faux "News&quot when they were all so convinced Mittens was going to win - because they believed their own bullshit and refused to consider any information produced outside their little universe.

It comes with its own bubble to protect them from the truth.

Let the baggers in to happily live out the rest of their lives going Galt and the rest of us can finally get to work cleaning up the mess they made of the real world.

Even when you have enablers that bash the Left, you get it at least. You know where the truth comes from and it is the Left side of the isle.
