As Twitchy reported last night, Sen. Ted Cruz declared it “great to be back in America” as he returned to Texas and a packed house to welcome him home. Tonight, Cruz attended a similar event in Arlington, Texas, where he promised not to speak for 21 hours, referring of course to his famous filibuster.

Cruz was reportedly greeted in Arlington with a standing ovation that lasted anywhere from 9 to 14 minutes.

Last night’s standing ovation in San Antonio was reported to be only 8 minutes, although there was “Green Eggs and Ham” cake at that event.

Should have had the rally at the ballpark...14 minutes of applause from 45,000 people MIGHT have been heard by the corruptocrats in Washington...

I heard Chris Mathews went off on Ted Cruz’ joke about “being back in America” after spending time in DC.

What would a northeast Alinskyite like Matthews know about America? Shut up, old man...
