The ghost of Dr. Seuss overheard Senator Ted Cruz’s denunciation and responded with the following text message.
I do not like Ted Cruz’s scam.
His entire speech was just like spam.
When health care is in a jam,
His filibuster was a sham.
Playing loose and playing fast
To defund a law that Congress passed.
In a rant that was delusional.
He forgot it’s constitutional.
Ted was nimble
Ted was quick.
Barack is better
If you get sick.
Seuss I am
And I don’t scare.
I’m a doctor
For Obama Care.
