Texas Sen. Ted Cruz writes in his new book that conservative voters would be astonished if they knew what Republican senators were really doing and saying in private meetings on Capitol Hill.
During my time in the Senate, Ive been amazed how many senators pose one way in publicas fiscal conservatives or staunch Tea Party supporters, for exampleand then in private do little or nothing to advance those principles, Cruz writes in his new book, A Time For Truth.
Indeed, if transcripts of our Senate lunches were released to the public, I think many voters would be astonished, the Republican presidential candidate writes.
In the introduction to this book, Cruz specifically criticizes the Republican leadership in the Senate for how they dealt with the issue of raising the debt ceiling in early 2014.

Zak: You Freepers would not be astonished to know what RINOs say and do in private
Do tell us, Senator.
Thread is ripe for ya.
Indeed, if transcripts of our Senate lunches were released to the public, I think many voters would be astonished, the Republican presidential candidate writes.
Cruz airing these corrupt POS’es dirty laundry doesn’t bode well for his longevity on this plane of existence for him....
Pray for Ted Cruz’s protection!
They are all RINOs- now. Now any conservatives should be called Republicans in Name Only because they are the freaks in the party.
I can’t wait to buy his book!
I already despise the vast majority of his fraudulent colleagues!
No, we wouldn’t.
The GOP LIES to its voters, accepts kickbacks from criminals
and under McCain used the IRS to attack conservatives.
WHO CARES WHAT THEY SAY.
The corrupt and the users of the IRS belong in prison.
Maybe (hopefully) he will inspire others to do the same.
Holding breath.....
Actually I would not be surprised at all.
It’s quite obvious what they do not stand for at all looking at their immense list of non-accomplishments.
The GOP is either the most unsuccessful, inept party in the history of the world, or they do not believe a word of their own platform.

I’m not astonished at all. I think most of us had that one figured out a long, long time ago.
So, why did Cruz say TPA gives Obama powers and created an amendment to eliminate those powers, then voted for TPA even thought his amendment failed?
Beware the charlatan who plays tricks before your eyes......but beware the bigger charlatan who curries favor by exposing his rival charlatans.
Why is everyone astonished that job #1 of senators is reelection?
Release the Transcripts!
Cruz will certainly get my vote. Only he can get this country back on track.
