Terrific! Ted Cruz Lectures Obama During White House Meeting
Gateway Pundit ^ | October 11, 2013 | Jim Hoft

You gotta love it. The one Republican who has the courage to tell it like it is.

Ted Cruz lectured the president on the negative effects of Obamacare today at the White House. Earlier in the day Senator Cruz joked that Obama might abduct him when he attends the White House meeting.

(VIDEO-AT-LINK)

The Politico reported:

Sen. Ted Cruz confronted President Barack Obama over his health care law during a meeting at the White House Friday attended by dozens of GOP senators.

Cruz told Obama that any deal to reopen the government must also provide relief for those negatively affected by Obamacare. In a long gaggle with reporters, Cruz did not use the word “defund” to describe his aspirations for changes to the health care law, but said he wants “substantial” changes.

“I told the president exactly the same thing I have told you here today: That we need to work together and fund the government and at the same time provide substantial relief to the millions of people who are hurting because of Obamacare, who are losing their jobs, being forced into part-time work and losing their health insurance,” Cruz said. “If the outcome doesn’t impact people who are struggling, who are hurting because of Obamacare, then I don’t think it would be a good outcome.”

Asked to give a breakdown of the exchange between Cruz and Obama, White House press secretary Jay Carney simply responded: “No.”

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Sen. Cruz punked him like Putin!

It must have been quite the spectacle if it left Carney with nothing to say.

The one man in Washington, D.C. unafraid to stand up to Obama! That alone should give him the Rep. Nod!

Just what is Politico’s version of “confronted”.

Politico is my last choice for accurately characterizing one of our guys in any setting. Cruz said what he said. It was the truth and accurate, but hardly a “confrontational” style.

Politico is stirring the water by seasoning the language. Probably to enrage the rinos and deepen the Republican divide.

It sure wasn’t to make a hero out of Cruz.

I didn't expect to find a candidate I liked more and thought might make a better President than Gov Palin.

I'll wait until he says he's running, but if he does, I'm all in.

“Mr. Cruz...stay out of small planes and swimming pools.”

You got that right brother! Cruz is the man in Washington, and they despise him, on every side.

Obama’s answer to that will be to crucify doctors and nurses, nationalize them, and make them work for free like in some kind of military “of passion”.
