I feel like this won't even be news-worthy by the end of the year... just wait until he runs for President in 2016.

What's even sadder about Ted Cruz, his constituents still like him.

That's Texas you're talking about, though.

It's become pretty clear that Ted Cruz annoys the entire Senate, both personally and politically.

Gotta love that Feinstein-Cruz exchange.

Ted Cruz isn't just obnoxious either.  He's nuts.  His constitutional argument, if I understand it correctly, would bar any type of regulation of "arms."  He should introduce a bill to legalize machine guns and RPGs.

I'm not going to pretend that I care about guns, but I don't particularly care for people on either side who contend that the second amendment is a clear and determinate body of text.

May as well go for the full monty and allow for the unregulated sale of nuclear arms. Second amendment never says "gun."

That's certainly the implication of Ted Cruz's argument.  And it makes sense if you think "arms" are meant to allow individual citizens to fight back against the government.

But, I don't think Cruz actually believes that.

Just watched the video. Feinstein went to emotional appeal "I've seen the bodies". The question Cruz asks is actually legitimate.

With hoodlums like this roaming the street people will need their guns to shoot.

Cruz is right and Feinstein is miles in the wrong direction. She's never been a friend to gun rights and California needs to remove her immediately. Pre-17th Amendment style.

Not willing to stop at voter ID laws, the GOP now advocates simply removing the right to vote from everyone.

LOL, we could always use someone who might actual be too crazy to get the Republican Presidential nomination.
