This is one funny dude.

"The newly announced Republican presidential candidate told CNN's Dana Bash on Tuesday that he will sign up for health care coverage through the Affordable Care Act -- a law he has been on a crusade to kill."

Ted Cruz going on Obamacare - CNN.com

If there was an reasonable alternative available to him in his current job situation, I am sure he would take it.

But take note how Cruz obeys the law, even when he is not a big fan of it, unlike Barack Obama.

You mean an reasonable alternative proposed by Cruz and the GOP?

No, I mean something that is currently an active part of the law and provided to him as an option as a US Senator.

Which is irrelevant since they arent the law.

I'm not a fan of it either, even helped to fun constitutional court challenges to it, but I still have to comply with the law.

I suppose I should be thanking liberals for my free medical care now at the taxpayers expense...

Wow, way to stand on your principles there, Rafael. He exerted a lot of effort to shut down the government to try to stop the "atrocity that is Obamacare" but the minute he loses his health insurance there he is, sprinting to the exchanges to get him some of that "atrocious" health insurance.

He's openly mocking his supporters and they, like the dupes he knows them to be, eat it up. Priceless.

The loudest critic, Mr. Cruz only sign onto Obamacare because he has no other choice right?

I wish Cruz thought about all the Americans out there that didn't have healthcare at all to begin with, especially those with per-existing conditions.

So Cruz is losing health insurance (per HeyJude) and then re-signing back up under ACA, where I'm sure he'll pay full price and not get a subsidy, and you guys are claiming this as win, even though the net increase in insured =

ZERO..

This is an example of EXACTLY what took place.. Millions lost policies, and then resigned back up, and your side counts it as a newly insured "positive".

Meanwhile 30 million are still going without insurance despite demands that ACA get passed to insure every american.
