| 2013-01-05 |
| [HOUSTON.CBSLOCAL] Tea party darling Ted Cruz has been sworn in as U.S. senator and says his first order of business will be introducing a bill he knows will never pass. Cruz is a Cuban-American and former state solicitor general. On Thursday, he became the first Hispanic to represent Texas in the Senate. He has pledged that his first bill would seek to repeal "every syllable of every word" of the B.O. regime's health care reform law. Now in office, Cruz said he will keep that promise, even though he knows Senate Democrats and President Barack Obama They get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them... will ensure his bill won't become law. |

| #4 To recover we must be a nation of business. To be a nation of business we must treat our government like a business. Shut it down until the books are in order. And cancel the pay hikes, that is disgusting. |

| #3 Cruz says we should shut down the government if necessary. The political class doesn't like to hear such talk no matter who is saying it. |

| #1 Drudge Report: Cruz says shutting down the Federal government due to over spending may be necessary. As they say in Texas, "nutt cuttin' time". Neuter these stallions. That will calm them down. |
