“I think the president wants to campaign on immigration reform in 2014 and 2016 and I think the reason the White House is insisting on a path to citizenship for those who are here illegally is because the White House knows that insisting on that is very likely to scuttle the bill.”
CBS this morning profile on Ted Cruz
No, Senator Cruz. The President is insisting on a path to citizenship because that’s the only way to deal with the problem of residents who are not documented. The way to prevent future undocumented residents is to craft a guest worker program that will work in the real world, not the paranoid delusions of the average Republican.
…You and your kind are on your way out, Mr. Cruz. Enjoy your 6 years, because it’s all you will have as Senator unless the GOP wises up.

Facebook Status backdated to the blog. The Austin American Statesman moved their blogs. Archive.org has a First Reading summary here. Beto O’Rourke almost got Cruz’s seat in 2018.
