Oh, good, I'm glad Sen. Ted Cruz is keeping a clear head during all this. The only thing worse than a guy who is willing to withhold paychecks from hundreds of thousands of people to make a rather unclear political point would be if he thought
he was doing God's work.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) said over the weekend that he had prayed to God to guide him in the shutdown fight and was sure that "his will be done as I know it will be."
At the Values Voter Summit over the weekend, CBN's David Brody spoke with Cruz about his role in instigating the government shutdown, which has been seen as complicating debt limit negotiations.
"Where do you see God in all of this fight that's going on in your life right now?" Brody asked the Texas senator.
"Well, David, you know at every stage, my prayer to God is that His will be done," Cruz insisted. "As it will be."
There's nothing more conservative than having the deep conviction that God wants you to be a total asshole to people. Seriously, that one predates the pointed stick.
