Of his 12 votes in the Senate so far, Ted Cruz has been on the losing side in all of them. Even voting against FEMA help to Hurricane Sandy relief. Batting average of 0 for 12! Even the very conservative Washington Times is calling him “Senator Loser”. In just one month Ted has already surpassed Tea Party Senate Clowns Kentucky’s Rand Paul, South Carolina’s Tim Scott and Utah’s Mike Lee. Texas is #1! We will be hearing a lot more from Texas Tea Party Ted in the future. In fact the Senior Senator from Texas, John Cornyn is presently moving from arch conservative to Right-wing clown worried that an even crazier Texas Tea Party clown will take his seat in the coming 2014 primaries.
A reminder of who Ted Cruz is. Dubbed the New Hispanic Senator from Texas, he is about as far removed from HISPANIC as my friend Yon Yonson from Wisconsin. He was born in Canada to an Irish American mother and a Cuban father. The family moved to Texas when he was 5 years old where he was educated in white evangelical Baptist private schools. He got his undergraduate degree from Princeton and his law degree from Harvard. He does not speak Spanish, he is loudly against the Dream Act, is ever louder against immigration reform now being talked about, and has nothing at all in common with Latino, Mexican or Hispanic culture. With his voting record in just the first month of the Senate he has surpassed Rand Paul as the top right-wing clown in the Senate. Hear! Here!
There is another issue here. How could someone smart enough to sail through Princeton and Harvard become end up as such a stupid clown? Two words. Evangelical Christianity. Faith does not enhance reason, it replaces it.
