Ted Cruz would appreciate it very much if you would kindly stop discussing his role in the government shutdown.

The Texas senator who burst onto the public scene when he convinced congressional Republicans to adopt a scheme to withhold federal funding unless President Obama’s health care law was repealed, defunded or delayed, said Tuesday that talk of the shutdown in 2014 amounts to nothing more than a distraction.

“I understand that there are a lot of folks in the media that love to talk about the shutdown from four months ago….Efforts that distract from that conversation, I think, are deliberate efforts of smoke and mirrors distracting from the questions coming from the American people.” http://news.yahoo.com/ted-cruz-is-sick-and-tired-of-being-asked-about-

But…BENGHAZI!! Hell, that was only a year and a half ago…. And of course, "unlike" the government shutdown, it affected MILLIONS in America…

It's to laugh.
