Blinded By Arrogance and Tea, Ted Cruz Is The New Sarah Palin
Wow. In an interview with the Dallas News, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) was asked repeatedly what hes learned. He danced around the question like his feet were on fire, but reporter Todd J. Gillman stuck to it. Finally, Cruz admitted that he was teaching those veteran Republicans a thing or two.
Sure, hes only been there for ten weeks, and while he may have picked the wrong battles and there may be very few left who will support legislation he wants to advance (should he ever actually do what hes actually being paid to do, that is), chances are slim that hell get the backers.

(71 posts)Being from Texas, I had to sit through last year's senate race and witness these fascinating gems during the first senate debate between Paul Sadler and Ted Cruz:
"I do think that part of the philosophy of President Obama and this administration is trying to get as many Americans as possible dependent on government so that the democrats can stay in power..." - Ted Cruz
"...the Obama Administration's objective of essentially using bread and circuses to make as many people as possible dependent on government to keep voting democrat is not succeeding..." - Ted Cruz
Glenn Beck would be proud.
