Ted Cruz has pretty much decided that if he can’t kill the government, he’ll shut it down.

Cruz is demanding that the senate do nothing between November 4 and January 2nd.  Like we would know the difference.

Last month teabagger Cruz tried to force Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to cancel the Senate because “it weakens accountability and subverts the will of the American people” if their elected representatives dared to work after November 4, Election Day.

Now he’s willing to not fund the government after December 11th.

Cruz’s letter ignored Republican and Democratic leaders’ prior agreement to pass a stopgap measure to fund the government until December 11, that even the House passed to ensure some business would be finished during the lame duck session.

What’s the line between treason and duty?  Obviously none.

Thanks to Brian C for the heads up.
