There is a difference between being a flip flopper and changing your vote based on a change in circumstances. By the time TPA was passed in the House, many Dem amendments had weakened it, while Conservative amendments were not allowed. Then there was the back door dealing being done by McConnell and Boehner to extend the EX-IM bank corporate welfare in exchange for Dem votes. He did the right thing by voting “No”.
Oh, come on.
We all know Cruz is smart, it’s even fair to call him brilliant.
But who didn’t know that when legislation giving Obama even more unchecked power was in the balance that shenanigans were going to be pulled?
Each and every Freeper did, even you, if you’re honest with yourself. That’s who these people are, that’s how they live, that’s how they operate each and every day. History has proven that time and again.
Everyone knew it, except, apparently, Cruz.
What his initial vote speaks of, is a lack of wisdom.
