So, Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX), you think youre a playah? Not so fast, buddy
Sitting on the questioning panel in the third hearing on immigration since the current bill from the Gang of Eight was released, Cruz was pretty full of himself. Smugness seems to emanate from him, doesnt it?
When Secretary of Homeland Security, Janet Napolitano, was being questioned, Cruz apparently believed that he had a chance to score with his Tea Party worshippers. Seeing an opportunity, he pounced:
My office received the text of this bill at 2:25 a.m. on Wednesday, April 17 five days ago. In the five days since then, when you have obviously been heavily focused on matters such as the Boston bombing
have you had the opportunity to read all 844 pages of the bill?
You can tell from his expectant, self-satisfied expression that he expected Secretary Napolitano to make some kind of excuse for not reading it. So its very satisfying when she answers that she has, indeed, read the bill. All of the bill. You can almost read Cruzs mind as he processes that answer. You just know that he had a nasty rebuke ready to lay on her, how she wasnt doing her job, blah, blah, blah. But, unlike Cruz and his Republican brethren, she does her job. Cruz pauses for a beat, defeated, before replying:
Then that must have been a busy weekend.
