I’ll remind you geniuses that Cruz is one of the best conservative voting records in the Senate

Once again, P.T. Barnum was a genius.

Since when do the eligibility requirements for U.S. Senate include being a natural born citizen?

I really think no government employee should be paid for any day they are not on the job. Might cut down on every other senator or congressman running aimlessly (oops, governors too) on our dime.

Looks like Cruz is not really into the senate.

When you crash from the anointed one to just a lowly hated senator,
it’s hard to accept.

Have Cruz unseal his records. Then when it is revealed that his mother was a Canadian or British citizen at the time of his birth you can ask that again.

Sealing his records speaks volumes about what a “principled conservative” he is.

I think he could do a remake of Groundhog Day. Perhaps Weekend at Bernies too.

How much PAID TIME OFF is a junior senator allowed each year?

where I work, someone with less than 5 years experience gets a MAXIMUM of 3 weeks paid, and that includes sick days!!!

Why not? Cruz has already taken the last year off.

I’ll remind you geniuses that Cruz is one of the best conservative voting records in the Senate....yes, yes, I know...TPP was the exception).
Well then you don't know much because you didn't mention Corker. Both TPP and Corker are akin to treason...Apparently treason is now considered "conservative voting" by your "genius" standards.

Cruz has pretty much taken the last year off from the Senate. Another week won’t make any difference.

“Take the whole year Rafael”

One of the most conservative and Constitutional literate Senators; and you want him gone?

Real nice; you must want a Senator there that “gets along” with all the other crooked politicians.
