Ted Cruz: Obama is laughing at justice

Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, reacted to President Obama's comment about how the scandal surrounding the Internal Revenue Service had “not even a smidgen of corruption.”

"When the president goes on Fox News and says there is not a smidgen of corruption, it's like he's laughing at the impartial administration of justice," Cruz said in an interview on Fox News with host Greta Van Susteren on Tuesday night.

Cruz criticized the White House for delaying the investigation into the IRS practice of going after Tea Party political groups and appointing a major Obama donor to investigate the situation.

"It's an abuse of power and just this weekend, President Obama went on with your colleague Bill [O']Reilly and grinned in the camera and said there is 'not a smidgen of corruption' and I guess he knows this because his Obama donor made sure that the investigation did not uncover the truth," Cruz said.

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams
