Love this! Senator Ted Cruz to Barack Obama: Take tour ‘elsewhere’
Ted Cruz to Barack Obama: Take tour ‘elsewhere’
Texas Sen. Ted Cruz wants President Barack Obama to know that he should “take his broken promises tour elsewhere,” according to a statement his office released Wednesday, just hours before Obama is supposed to speak in the Lone Star State.
“President Obama’s trip to Texas brings nothing with it but broken promises,” the freshman Republican senator said in the statement. “He promised that Americans could keep their health care plans. We were told premiums would go down, that jobs would be created. And we now know these are all false promises.”
Cruz’s comments come as the president visits Dallas to promote the Affordable Care Act as well as speak at a fundraiser.
“[I]n spite of all Texas has done to resist the biggest entitlement program of this generation, Obamacare is reducing health care options, increasing costs and hurting jobs,” the statement said. “It has no place in Texas and must be repealed.”
“President Obama should take his broken promises tour elsewhere so Texans can continue focusing on the solutions that have allowed our state to become and remain the nation’s economic and job creation powerhouse,” Cruz added.
The White House had pushed back against the notion that this is a politically motivated visit.
“This isn’t a political issue. This is about making sure people where they live have access to good quality, affordable health care,” said David Simas, White House Deputy Senior Adviser for Communications and Strategy.

Good for Ted Cruz. I wish everyone would say this and mean it. It’s great to finally see someone telling liar Obama where to get off.

So, does Obama have a magic wand up his butt to give the people in Dallas access? Not politically motivated? Who the heck do those fools take us for? They must think we're Democrat Zombies that believe everything that flushes out of the White House.

obama took his lies to a Black church then to a synagogue. In other words he went to obama friendly venues. He is definitely popular in North Texas.
