Terrific! Ted Cruz Lectures Obama During White House MeetingPosted by Jim Hoft on Friday, October 11, 2013, 7:07 PM

You gotta love it.
The one Republican who has the courage to tell it like it is.

Ted Cruz lectured the president on the negative effects of Obamacare today at the White House.

Earlier in the day Senator Cruz joked that Obama might abduct him when he attends the White House meeting.

The Politico reported:

Sen. Ted Cruz confronted President Barack Obama over his health care law during a meeting at the White House Friday attended by dozens of GOP senators.

Cruz told Obama that any deal to reopen the government must also provide relief for those negatively affected by Obamacare. In a long gaggle with reporters, Cruz did not use the word “defund” to describe his aspirations for changes to the health care law, but said he wants “substantial” changes.

“I told the president exactly the same thing I have told you here today: That we need to work together and fund the government and at the same time provide substantial relief to the millions of people who are hurting because of Obamacare, who are losing their jobs, being forced into part-time work and losing their health insurance,” Cruz said. “If the outcome doesn’t impact people who are struggling, who are hurting because of Obamacare, then I don’t think it would be a good outcome.”

Asked to give a breakdown of the exchange between Cruz and Obama, White House press secretary Jay Carney simply responded: “No.”

He added: "I've fully demonstrated that as much as I would rather have a Republican president and would rather be the majority leader of the Senate, I'm willing to work with the government we have -- not the one I wish we had."

Wow. Too frigging generous of you Mr. McConnell.

Its called a democracy.
