Ted Cruz is at it again - taking a stand for the American people against the big bad government! On Sunday, the Texas senator posted this tweet on his Twitter page:
"Federal govt has no business sticking its nose in education. We need to repeal every word of Common Core! #nhpolitics #MakeDCListen"
What's the problem with that message? Oh, just the fact that Common Core, or the Common Core State Standards Initiative, isn't actually federal law. So, best of luck repealing any word of the nonexistent Common Core federal law, let alone every word, since it doesn't exist as such, Mr. Cruz.
Given the Texas senator's seeming desire to overturn federal laws that don't exist, expect him to post the following tweets in the future:
- "We need to repeal every word of the Baby's Barred From Driving Tractors law!"
- "Every word of the Pit Bulls Dog Fighting Without AK-47s law needs to be repealed!"
- "You know what law needs to be repealed? That Russia As the 51st State law!"
Yeah, good luck with all of that, Mr. Cruz. Perhaps the Texas senator should, instead of focusing his attention on the nonexistent Common Core federal law, he should instead focus it on garnering some common sense. Any common sense would be a vast improvement from where he stands today...
