I called Ted Cruz

His Washington voice mail is full, but I did leave a message at his campaign HQ in Texas, which said:

"As a Texas voter, I want you to know that you are an embarrassment to my state. You are a clown. Go back to Canada."

And yes, I left my real name.

It's a LAW now. The people have spoken. I have a real issue with stupid people.

I'm calling his office on my lunch break today. Lifelong Texan here and this jackass is NO Texan.

How any reasonable person could listen to this duffass for more than sixty seconds and not know that he's an absolute idiot is beyond me.

or should I say flash in the pants

The male equivalent of Sarah Palin -- only he's got Canadian papers that'll prevent him from every getting the undying support of the Tea Party voters who are suspicious of anything they can't draw an orange crayon around
