Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz welcomed President Obama to the Texas Thursday, where Obama is scheduled to begin his "Middle Class Jobs and Opportunity Tour," by highlighting Texas' job record in comparison with the administration's.
"America is stuck with high unemployment and low GDP growth, so it's encouraging to see the President coming to Austin to talk about jobs - perhaps he will learn how to create some from the folks who know how," Cruz said in a statement.
"Texas is leading the nation in economic growth and job creation because of principled, conservative leaders who understand the keys to economic success are lower, flatter taxes, limited government and restrained spending,' he added. "Texas has shown the country how it's done, and we hope the President will take some of these lessons back to Washington to bring true economic recovery to our nation."

I just despise it when poor AF1 has to wheels-down that asssmear in Texas...
“gitterdun” vs “you didn’t build that”
People have a hard time accepting the idea that the president actually seeks the detriment of the country instead of its benefit.
Yep! “you didn’t build that” but Obama broke it.

Obama’s road trip to Texas: make Ted Cruz-Republicans the face of Washington opposition
“The real target is a Republican Congress that has opposed Obama on everything from background checks and immigration to taxes, education, spending and the budget. Nobody’s a more visible face of the opposition than Sen. Ted Cruz, tea party star and potential presidential candidate.
By coming to Texas, the president wants to frame the two poles of our broken policy debate this way: Obama’s White House (compromise) vs. Cruz-type Republicans (obstruction).”
I think this will backfire on Obama.
So do I! Poor aircraft. I even feel sorry for the CINC jacket that has to go on that ***chin’s shoulders.
Most liberal? It’s not Texas. I wish they’d build a 1-way elevated highway with no exits (but perhaps electric charging stations) from Austin to somewhere not in the state; maybe “nawlins”. Wall it in and wait till it’s empty.
And to a poster above about the president not understanding “get ‘er done”, he doesn’t understand a thing about Texas. Most people don’t - and I’m OK with that. Just wish the people coming here would realize they’re visitors and not Texans and if they want Texas to be more like home they should pack up and go the hell back where they came from.
Keeper
That is an awesome stat
The ONLY reason more people don’t carer is most people are getting obamastash
