Don’t know.

If he is, endorsing Cruz, who has roundly denounced ethanol, would not make any sense.

Congress has racked up nearly $17 trillion in national debt, in part due to unnecessary taxpayer spending on mature industries such as corn ethanol.

This spending habit is enabled by lawmakers who refuse to acknowledge the plethora of subsidies showered upon these industries. For instance, at a policy forum last week, Representative Steve King (R-IA) asserted, “there is no subsidy for corn-based ethanol.”

Rep. King was no doubt attempting to placate the corn ethanol lobby and the many corn growers in his northwest Iowa district, but his statement deserves to be set straight.


In other words, king is just another duplicitous lying sack of crp, a perfect example of what's wrong with this country.

.
But in this case he is doing the highest and best good by endorsing the only qualified candidate in the race.

We need for every state to go to Cruz, to slam the door in the face of the GOPe thugs.
