Bravo Ted Cruz: Cruz has a 98 to 99% voting record in Texas....he votes the needs of his Constituents! Shutting down the government was because Obama wouldn't negotiate to repeal or defund Obamacare which is the most destructive legislation in history against the American people, the Middle Class and the poor are being hurt the most! Lets look at how the so-called law got passed...First, the bill was not read to know that there are death panels in there, and that millions would loose coverage, Second, Senators Landrieu, and Ben Nelson were given the Louisianna Purchase, and CornHusker Kickback to vote for Obamacare, and third, Justice Roberts went in and changed the law and called it a tax, only Congress can do that, so the original law was changed...the Supreme Court is supposed to uphold laws, NOT change them! All of this by deception under false pretenses. This administration has been non-transparent, deceptive, and destructive. There is tremendous anger about this administration shutting down the WW2 memorial with tape so veterans couldn't enter, they also abandoned our brave seals and ambassador in Benghazi where the Black AlQaida flag was flying and attacking the compound, and then Seal Team Six which took out the most wanted criminal in the world, Osama Bin Laden had a target painted on their back by announcing who they were and what unit they were part of, that's how the enemy got the information and took down their helicopter.! No wonder people cheered Cruz....he is a rational American who loves the country!
