The only thing that's "deeply ironic" is CNN pretending to be journalists

[sickoflibs]

RE:”Deeply ironic?” Please explain how, dear liberal hacks at CNN. He explains that he believes in obeying the law even when he disagrees with it. That’s not “ironic,” that’s a man living by his beliefs.”

I saw that, that wasn't a very good explanation as he could still comply by just paying the 2% fine/tax/whatever, and still avoid the ‘Death Panels’ that Sarah warns us against.

There are better ways he could have handled the got-ya question.

What part of “mandatory” don’t the assholes at CNN understand?

[latina4dubya]

he wants to dismantle the IRS... do they find it ironic that he pays taxes?

[goodnesswins]

Ironic is CNN pretending to be a news organization...their propaganda is relentless

CNN Plays Gotcha: Is Ted Cruz a Hypocrite for Signing Up for Obamacare?

I don't know what is in his mind, but my opinion is, that he is signing up, to show everyone how much a POS this Obamacare really is.

[PTBAA]

I think Cruz now has “Standing” in terms of criticizing Obamacare. By getting into the same boat that the Dems have forced millions of Americans into, he can highlight the hypocrisy of our ruling class (legislators) that have exempted themselves from this debacle.

I think it is a brilliant “populist” strategy. This man is playing chess...

Cruz signing up for zerocare shows that he wants to show that he’s with “The People” not above them. He’s willing to go through hell and high water along with us. He’ll understand what we’re going through.

[Yo-Yo]

Yes, it is very hypocritical to obey a law that you despise and wish to repeal.

[Pearls Before Swine]

CNN: He’s not a hypocrite. He wants to “feel our pain.”

And, he’s embarrassed to be EXEMPT.

[Beowulf9]

I wonder if he thinks if he didn’t he’s in violation of the law for not signing up?

Although I’m sure he already had insurance, so he didn’t have to sign up then?

Makes no sense to me.

I would hope that woman having a child don’t decide to have an abortion since it is the law. We are trying to get rid of things like abortion and Obamacare not start using it.
