Dana Bash reports on the last-minute drama the freshman Texas Republican caused over the Senate's vote to raise the debt limit.
Doesn't Cruz realize that our children and their children , will be borrowing on the future as well. The reason our country is in deep debt now is because of the Bush / Cheney Presidency. The best thing people can do if they truly want to minimize what our country borrows, is never vote for a Republican again. If by chance a Republican ever gets elected President again the Republicans will be telling us all that it is healthy to borrow money and run a debt. Republicans only get concerned about debt when we have a Democrat as President. Bush and Cheney drove our country into an Abyss, Obama stopped the drop and started the USA climbing out of the Abyss, last thing we ever need is another Republican destroying our country. Make no mistake Ted Cruz represents the worst of Americans.
