Viper Wife

There is a dude running for United States Senator from Texas named Ted Cruz who is a bit testy about the Council on Foreign Relations.  He was talking to some folks in a debate last week and pronounced

Cruz called the organization “a pernicious nest of snakes” that is “working to undermine our sovereignty,” according to video provided by someone who opposes his candidacy.

He had also called it “a pit of vipers.”  That’s pretty much the typical Tea Party stance on the issue.

But, and this is a pretty big butt, Cruz’s wife, the lovely Mrs. Heidi Cruz, was an active member of the Council on Foreign Relations until this June.

When questioned about it, Cruz’s spokesman said, “Cruz’s issues with the CFR aren’t important.”

I dunno ’bout you or Cruz but I generally save “a pernicious nest of snakes” for things that are important.  And, I think undermining US sovereignty is right on up there just above “Hey, waiter, my eggs are cold.”

Ted Cruz is one of those shoot from the mouth and apologize to your wife later kinda guys so this race might be fun.

Thanks to Ken for the heads up.
