2008 candidate obama says Bush is unpatriotic and irresponsible for adding $4T in debt, promptly adds $7.5T.
Oh the irony.

That's called a massive recession that kills tax receipts and forces people onto food stamps and other programs. Since inheriting Bush's mess Obama has since reduced the deficit every year he's been in office.

Obama complains about white midwesterners 'clinging to their gun and religion'; downplays ISIS as JV team while the quite literally cling to their guns and religion.

Obama proclaims Obamacare law of the land, unilaterally delays part of law and ignores other longstanding immigration laws.
Oh the irony.
I dont think you want to play this game max, especially considering it looks like Cruz is merely following the law

Those aren't ironies buddy.
Cruz is following a law he says is unconstitutional. Plus he could go without it or get a non compliant plan, or have his wife get a plan to cover him again. But you know those Canadians; they love their government healthcare!

You are being set up for a right hook. This is exactly why Cruz will win. Two steps ahead of CNN and the left. This is going to be an entertaining election.
This guy’s mind is working all the time...

Not taking a subsidy doesn't mean it isn't Obamacare. He signed up for a plan on the federal OBAMACARE exchange.
Lol at Cruz setting anything up. Remember when he shut down the government and got everyone to hate the GOP, and his other GOP senators to hate him? Cruz is even less electable than Mitt Romney, and that's saying something.

Again you failed to read the article. By law Congress must use the exchanges. WTF do you propose Mr. Cruz do? BTW...He did not write the fcking law.

Well here's an irony: that particular provision was actually inserted at the behest of a Republican, Chuck Grassley. So he could grandstand about how Congress was exempting itself from this turrrible law. Dems laughed and said sure, that's a great idea!
Congress must use the exchanges huh? Then explain why is Cruz, who has been a US senator since January 2013, just now signing up for it?
Regardless, this will be fun to watch play out in the GOP primaries.

You give a lot of credit to a single senator that was in the minority party for shutting down the government. Fact of the matter is Obama, Harry Ried, and Boehner shut down the government by twiddling their thumbs until the last minute and then trying to rahm through a budget that didn't have a snowball's chance of getting through the House. And as I recall, the GOP won the ensuing election in a landslide.

If that's what the law says why is Cruz only now signing up for the law after 2 years in the Senate? And why is he concerned about following the letter of a law he believes is unconstitutional?
