Ted Cruz going on Obamacare

Anyone can do that. And guess what? The plan he buys from an insurer won't be any different than what he gets from an exchange.

That's correct.

So if there's no difference, why did he buy through an exchange instead of buying it on his own?
 
It's not hard to criticize him... Just look at his views on climate change and the disrespect he gave to NASA members while discussing future funding.

LOL!!

And yet, you won't stoop to digging into the ridiculous.
 
That's correct.

Why not?

Oh...wait...it's something to criticize him for...why waste it?
 
If anything, the GOP just needs to accept the ACA isnt going anywhere. I think generally most if not all of them believe this, but the vast majority of them wont come out an admit it because its way too good of a talking point their base has bought into.

Agreed. Its time for the GOP to get life and stop obsessing over the past. They should be talking about how to reform it in a way that maximizes its effectiveness at the lost possible cost. The problem with the GOP, however, is that they can't seem to deal in reality; they just want to exist in the past.

... which is why he is not a serious candidate....

The real answer is that they need an alternative that is acceptable to the American public. The one biggie they have to overcome is preexisting conditions.

I don't see why anyone has to stop fighting for what they believe in because you want them to.

How so? It seems like Ted Cruz does it for himself, even the GOP is divided over support for him.

Why? How is it anyone's problem you have a pre-existing condition? It's not mine and it's not your neighbors. Deal with it.

Well, of course the GOP is divided over him. Do you expect them to be lemmings like the Democrats?

We don't need to waste money on NASA. If you want to explore space spend your own money on it.

It just says something about his character, and the democrats are divided, more so then the modern GOP. Defending Ted Cruz is hilarious, but I cannot garner respect for you after some previous remarks you've made which illuminate one of the problems with this nation.
 
That's correct.

So if there's no difference, why did he buy through an exchange instead of buying it on his own?

Maybe because he could shop multiple options all in just one website. I found it very convenient.

I think you've established that you're an idiot with no compassion.

NASA does much more then explore space, and has made many invaluable discoveries throughout it's lifespan, space exploration is beautiful and exciting/important, NASA hardly has any funding, but what they can do with what they have is amazing. We really need to cut defense and reallocate that money to social programs and NASA/etc
 
That's correct.

he didn't buy anything .....yet.

That may sound like a done deal, but his campaign stressed Tuesday evening that Cruz is still weighing his options. "Senator Cruz said he would ‘presumably’ use his employer health insurance, for which the only option is Obamacare," campaign spokesman Rick Tyler said in an email. "But there are other options that the senator is considering before making a final decision about how to make sure his family is insured."
How Ted Cruz could wind up on Obamacare - The Washington Post

but it could be worse...at least he's considering abiding by the law as written and passed( if he chooses to go with the federal exchange)... most congresscritters are taking advantage of "special rules"
 
I think you've established that you're an idiot with no compassion.

Ok, so about this, I don't ****ing care if you live or die. Stop acting like I'm your ****ing slave and you have a right to use my money to get you things that I don't give a **** if you have or don't have. Is that enough compassion for ya?
 
What a dork chump Ted Cruz is. I love this answer he gave when asked what kind of music he liked.

So on a question asking about music, he evoked 9/11 saying he was a classic rock fan until 9/11. Then and ONLY then did he switch to country music because he didn't like the way the rock genre responded to 9/11 (how the hell does an entire genre of music you like offend you?) THEN he switched to listening to country music because he realized, and I quote, "these are my people."

Whip 'em out boys... Ted's already felating everyone for votes.

I think your post speaks for itself.

No, we don't. The government is not there to innovate, explore space, or to feed the poor. Defense is actually a power of the government and it exists for that purpose.

I am in no way obligated to give you anything, do anything for you or to care you exist. Deal with it.

The government should inspire innovation, and it should help its poorest citizens, I truly hope you're a troll trying to make the right wing look bad.. If not, people like you are the reason this country is so backwards.

The government exist for whatever purposes the rulers chose it to exist for.
