You caught something, lets amplify for effect...

Cut the last word or Repeal Obamacare as the real objective..

Ted says...

Just this aspect...

Maybe he wants something to focus on, would be good stuff for VP to make his mark and take a real stand..

Not one that holds some back for later..

They have insurance. Obamacare says you have to have health insurance. What is Ted talking about.

No. This is just a repeat of laws the Congress has exempted themselves from for years. This Cruz idea follows that mode to a tee. Beware.

Well I think it’s strategic.

He probably figures, he got no traction on repealing Obamacare so far, but maybe if Congress has to suffer under it, he can get more support.

To carve out the exemption, Congress declared itself a small business. Several Republicans tried to get the petition made public. The leadership fought him. Fraud was committed by some Congressional staffer. Repeal of the Congressional exemption would ultimately result in identifying the staffer and his boss. This is why it matters to Cruz.

Congress got a special exemption from Obamacare— Cruz says Congress should have to sign up for Obamacare, like every one else.

Are you telling me they don’t have insurance? Of course they do.
