Ted Cruz: Send a 'Search Team' If I Dont Return from the White House

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) joked that he might not be seen again after Friday’s meeting with President Obama at the White House.

"After leaving here, I'm going to be going to the White House," he said at the Values Voter Summit of religious conservative activists. "I will make a request. If I'm never seen again, please send a search and rescue team. I very much hope I don't wake up tomorrow morning among the Syrian rebels."

The line drew big laughs from the activist crowd, which ate up his attacks on the Obama administration and establishment conservatives.
Senate Republicans are meeting with Obama Friday to discuss how to raise the debt ceiling and reopen the government. Obama invited every member of the Senate Republican Conference to the meeting, including Cruz.

Cruz was one of the driving forces behind the call to defund ObamaCare in a government funding bill, which helped cause the shutdown. The senator's poll numbers have taken a hit amid the shutdown fight. A Gallup survey released Thursday showed that 26 percent have a favorable view of Cruz, while 36 percent see him unfavorably.

4. Raphael needs to know when to STFU!

He is neither charming or witty and has nothing to offer.

He should worry about the GOP, not the President.

[Populist_Prole]

5. Whooaaahhh! A real toughguy isn't he?

[Hong Kong Cavalier]

16. Only reason he wouldn't return is 'cause he'd probably try to take a swing at the President.

Secret Service would lay his McCarthy-lookalike face on the carpet so damn fast you'd get your fiber intake for the month, you fuckstick.

I bet he wants to, too.

Hopefully on international television.

[Theyletmeeatcake2]

36. When he was born in Canada who picked up the tab??

Also didn't his Heroine Ayn Rand also end her days on public Welfare in the good old USA ? Seems like there's a good case of self loathing there...I hope Ted and the people who profit from those terrible books Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged have sent payment including interest to the parties concerned...only fitting don't you think???? I wouldn't have wanted to be caught in that stampede .......

[get the red out]

26. He's scared Bo will eat him

You know those Portuguese Water Dogs....born canine killers.

[oswaldactedalone]

27. What a deluded fuckstick

A US Senator actually said this and the other BS regarding soldiers in people's homes. WTF???

[DonCoquixote]

28. If only this were true

People like ted should be thankful we liberals want the nation to survive, because those same laws he hates protect his ass. Otherwise, some of us would pop Champagne at seeing him meet a very bad end.

[Blue Owl]

30. A search & destroy team, got it

n/t

[freshwest]

32. Find out if any of the Nixon White House Plumbers are still in business:

He's slick, but would still stop up the pipes.

[Marie Marie]

40. Stop up the pipes? Yup, giant turds usually do.

Roto-Rooter better bring their biggest snake.

[Snotcicles]

33. The way your party hates you right now Ted, that my be the only place your safe. nt

[Dyedinthewoolliberal]

34. This guy is a real piece of work.

He doesn't seem to realize that every time he mocks the President, ridicules the President's policies and makes over the top statements like the one about the President quartering soldiers in citizens' homes he is insulting each of us that voted for the President too.
He has no business trying being an elected representative. He's disgusting.

[tomm2thumbs]

35. All of the search & rescue dogs refused - they don't like smelling dogsh*t

must be that sh*t eating grin of his -- now we know what kind of sh*t he prefers

[tanyev]

37. I'm hearing Jon Stewart do his fake laugh followed by a hearty "Fuck you!"

[awoke_in_2003]

39. The Syrian rebels don't want you...

even they think you are a loony.

[Doctor_J]

41. Carney and Obama need to start questioning this dude's sanity out loud

He's nuts, and should be called out as such

[askeptic]

42. I sure hope the Repubs run him for Prez

Dems will have one of the biggest landslides in history, no matter who they run.

[BlueStater]

43. They should start by checking the toilets.

That's where shit normally goes, after all.

[olddad56]

44. He might need a search team, as he has certainly lost his way.
