Green Eggs and Sham ~ the Ted Cruz Fauxlibuster Continues

Previous Post:
Ted Cruz Attempts to Filibuster Obamacare

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


From Gawker

. . . Green Eggs and Ham, according to [Ted Cruz], is just like Obamacare for the American people: “they do not like Obamacare in a box, with a fox, in a house, or with a mouse.”
Except he seems to completely misunderstand the book because, as the narrator in the story learns, once he actually tries green eggs and ham, he realizes they’re delicious.
Senator Cruz, you do not like Obamacare, so you say? Try it! Try it! And you may!

Thanks to Ted Cruz, "Green Eggs and Ham" is now printed in the Congressional Record (via @bycoffe) pic.twitter.com/SnNTqImStP

I only know about this Cruz situation through Twitter, so to me, it's like some weird collage of exasperated Green Eggs and Ham jokes.

The people who think Wendy Davis' filibuster was unprofessional are now praising Ted Cruz for reading Green Eggs and Ham on the Senate floor

— Grand Old Parody (@GrandOldParody1) September 25, 2013

Its taken more than three men in the US senate to do what @WendyDavisTexas did all by herself.

When Wendy Davis filibustered in #TxLege the #GOP objected that her points weren't "Germane" #GreenEggsAndHam #SitDownTed

— Jeanne K. (@SnarkAmendment) September 25, 2013

@WendyDavisTexas couldn't even lean on a desk, meanwhile @tedcruz reads #GreenEggsAndHam. #EnoughAlready #TexansDeserveBetter

To the folks who are using words like "inspiring" in reference to Cruz' grandstanding: Green. Eggs. And. Ham. #headdesk

#WhatILearnedFromTedCruz - His father is Spongebob Squarepants, invented Green Eggs & Ham, and fears the moon.

Memo to Ted Cruz: You don't get dictate public policy to us when your party only controls 1/3 of the government.

— The Fighting Liberal (@texyellowdogdem) September 25, 2013

This has nothing to do with HCR.. It's the #GOP using Cruz as a willing tool to keep the teabaggers agitated, afraid, donating and voting.

If you voted for the guy who started #RomneyCare, I kind of find it funny that you now support @TedCruz #hypocrite

Ted Cruz: "We don't want government intrusion into our healthcare. Except those times we voted for forced ultrasounds" #Oops #StandWithCruz

Breaking: Ted Cruz inadvertently makes case FOR ObamaCare, shuts up, shuffles about DC in robe & slippers, annoying street people.
