During his marathon speech on the Senate floor Tuesday in opposition to funding the Affordable Care Act in the continuing resolution, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) took a break ... to read bedtime stories to his two young girls.

Actually, hearing him read that would be more rewarding as hearing any one of Obama’s spews on whatever topic of the day in which he is trying to shift blame.

I swear my Grandfather used to read that book to me when I was very young and that was when most TV shows were still in Black and White.

One of my few memories of him as he died back in 1960s.

Not in a lock box!
Not with that fox!
I won’t spend that here or there;
I won’t buy that anywhere!

I won’t take Obamacare’s scam - I will not, Uncle Sam-I-am!

The only thing in his whole sorry career that Jesse Jackson ever did that had any merit whatsoever was reading this story. FWIW. The Dr. Seuss-isms are perfectly suited to the race hustler’s “talents”.

I watched it live. Awesome!

His biggest mistake was that he should have read the Obamacare Bill.

That would have taken a couple of days, but it would have been pertinent.

I always preferred One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish myself.

Why didn’t he just read the Obamacare regulations. That would take two days at least.

so reading this is news to the idiots and yet he mentioned far more important issues which the media are ignoring.

I think Horton hears a who would have been far more appropriate.

Not entirely true. He also spoke up on behalf of Terri Schiavo.

The pic of his to girls looking at him on TV is priceless.

There’s a darling picture of Cruz’s daughters (looks like they’re in their jammies) in front of the TV listening to their daddy on the Cruz live thread; however, it’s a HUGE thread (over 3K posts now) so can’t find it right now.

I enjoyed it and his sweet little girls did, too! LOL - who would’ve thought Dr. Seuss would be in the Senate record

What a nice photo.

Thanks.

I would think he would have read the papers of the founding fathers. Would have inspired himself.
