Peter King: 'I Can Never Forgive Ted Cruz'

Rep. Peter King, R-N.Y., one of the leaders of a GOP "moderate revolt" on Monday, says he can never forgive Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas , for leading an effort to defund Obamacare as part of a budget resolution.

 "This was a doomed process from the start," King told CNN on Monday. King said he went along with a vote to defund the Affordable Care Act because he was told it would get the ball rolling and prevent the government from shutting down.

What can you expect from a NY Rep?   :mad:

Peter needs to go.  Sure hope someone challenges him in 2014.

Hey Pete:

If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

The RINOs don't like Cruz, because he has shown them to be nothing more than democrat lite.  Cruz spoke to the people, not the Washington elite.

History will not remember you, Mr King, but it will remember Ted Cruz.
"We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honor and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and then bid the geldings to be fruitful."

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

John C Calhoun, "Disquisition on Government", 1840

Know what, Petey? I bet Sen. Cruz and the rest of us can live with that. Now get back under Nancy Pelosi's desk where you apparently belong now.
