FULL TITLE: Obama on Sen. Ted Cruz: attention-seeker at fault in government shutdown; Cruz says the president is “playing games”

The man with the biggest megaphone in Washington, President Barack Obama, has called out Texas’ junior senator as an attention-seeking upstart.

“When I came into the Senate, my attitude was I should just keep a pretty low profile in the Senate and just do the work,” he said, contrasting the early days of his own brief Senate career with the nine-month tenure of Sen. Ted Cruz. “I didn’t go around courting the media, and I certainly didn’t go around trying to shut down the government.”

update 4pm: Cruz responds by accusing Obama of “offering partisan jabs and playing games with the shutdown to maximize its painfulness.” (full statement below)

0bama went around knowing he would be the next ‘President,’ and a fake one at that.

He talked of twiddling gum sticks and told Harry Reid that he had a gift. The gift was being half-black (but mostly Arab) and backed by the international communists

“When I came into the Senate, my attitude was I should just keep a pretty low profile in the Senate and just do the work”

This jackwagon was too lazy to even show up to vote most of the time. Barry is a mendacious, megalomaniacal, insecure, spoiled, fourth-rate politician who just happened to end up with the right handlers and a fawning leftist media.

Cruz is so far intellectually superior to Soetoro that he doesn't deserve having Soetoro in the same room to pollute his air.

He didn't try to grand stand and shut down the government??? Maybe the stupid reporter would like to have Zero explain his speech in the Senate and subsequent vote not to raise the debt ceiling in 2006???

The media doesn't ever ask him to explain his alternate reality, even when the facts are known to all.

“.......Obama, has called out Texas’ junior senator as an attention-seeking upstart.”

Obama probably got those words from Traitor McCain.

The pot calling the kettle back.... ohh the irony.

Folks ? just remember those evil people who tried to keep the Israelites who came back from captivity in Babylon when they were commanded from God to rebuild the temple in the book of Ezra.
They lied about the Israelites to the King of Persia and for a while the building of the temple was stopped.

Or those who tried to keep Nehemiah from rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem.


The creeps Sanballat the Horonite, and Tobiah, Ammonite forestalled Nehemiah from rebuilding the wall with lies, and more lies....

Don't listen to the lies from the son of Satan !

[American Constitutionalist]

PEOPLE DON'T LISTEN TO THE LIES OF OBAMA AND THE MAIN STREAM MEDIA !!

The pot calling the kettle BLACK ? yes, we shall say it.. and not afraid to say BLACK !

Thank you Obama, for acknowledging that Ted Cruz has set up house in your head without paying a dime in rent.

You petty, petulant fool. You've just admitted that Ted Cruz is your master.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, goes to the heart of the matter.

Hey, AC...you still there?

“I didn’t go around courting the media, and I certainly didn’t go around trying to shut down the government.”

Zero's so stupid that he's picking a fight with the Harvard Law and Princeton debate champ.

Go for it, Zippy! We need more televised interviews with Ted.

[American Constitutionalist]

I am still here, and will be here until God’s purpose for my life is over..... I am under divine protection...

[Windflier]

Can you imagine how the left would be reacting if there were even half a dozen like Ted Cruz in the Senate?

[stormhill]

Heaven bless you! I love your spirit.

All kidding aside, Obama is beneath contempt.

Well played!
