Really...he does not run the utility companies etc etc and he's only gone for a day.
So your family comes 2nd??
Not a darn thing he could do to save his state. It's a "watch over" situation. You prefer photo opps?
Cruz: “Hello FEMA, This is Ted Cruz.”
FEMA: “Yes, what do you need?”
Cruz: “I don’t know.”
FEMA: “Well who does know?”
Cruz: “The Governor and his emergency response team.”

I’m sure that BiXiden and The Ginger Goebbels are very busy “monitoring” the situation.
He is lying. It has been confirmed that the ticket was booked for Saturday return.
There are all kinds of things wrong with what he did.

According to the Senate calendar this is a "State Work Week", not a "Take your kids to Cancun week".
Ok, ok...I knew I was wrong as soon as I hit “Post”...and THEN read the article.

He was pleading with the dipstick Louisiana Governor and New Orleans mayor to order an evacuation. He was staging FEMA and getting everything on the nearest highest ground in place. He was also playing his guitar at his ranch in Texas in the evenings to unwind at the end of the day.
When the stuff hit the fan and New Orleans got flooded with the unused evacuation school buses underwater as well, the mayor and governor skated (because they were in the "D" club) and the press ran pictures of Bush playing his guitar.
Send his family to Cancun, stay for the photo-ops of walking the powerlines or whatever would've been the right choice here.
