WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, released the follow statement regarding President Obama's "Promise Zones" announcement:

"It's altogether fitting that President Obama is today talking about income inequality because income inequality has increased dramatically as a direct result of his economic policies. Out-of-control government spending, debt, taxes, and regulations have killed millions of jobs. Unfortunately, rather than stop Washington's job-killing policies, President Obama proposes yet more government spending and debt. People need jobs. All of America needs to be a real 'Promise Zone'--with reduced barriers to small businesses creating private-sector jobs--and we should start by repealing every word of Obamacare, building the Keystone pipeline, abolishing the IRS, and rolling back abusive regulations.”

[Jim Robinson]

Now, that’s what I’ve been trying to say.

Go, Ted, GO!!

[GeronL]

We need fewer government handouts to local governments to carry out some stupid scheme of an ignorant dictator-wannabe.

[DJ MacWoW]

Woo Hoo!!! Someone who GETS IT!

[Don Corleone]

Steve Forbes said much the same thing when interviewed this AM

If Ted Cruz actually became president, you might even bite the bullet and celebrate at Olive Garden. You would surely move to Texas then. Strong man, Humblegunner, could move your stuff to Texas fast.

The White House is a Broken Promise Zone.

Ted Cruz Ping!

If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.

Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!

It’s VERY interesting that Washington DC and its environs constitute a high-income zone, and even those areas a bit further away from DC are hurting.

In general, government and government-contractor jobs pay better than most private sector jobs. And while good private-sector jobs are becoming scarcer, the government sector just keeps on growing.

And many good government jobs go to the politically well-connected.

Phooey to all that! PHOOEY!!!!

All of America needs to be a real 'Promise Zone'

Well he's no Mr. ...we need 999 plan EMPOWERMENT ZONES.

Unlike one of the last presidential primary candidates.

If he also walks the walk, I would vote for Ted Cruz.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Don’t stop Ted!!

Repeal the 17th Amendment

Add yours here......

[Churchillspirit]

Put down your shovel; sit on your ass; you’ve reached the promised zone.

If there’s ever been anything moral about the Left, now is the time for them to help us end the IRS. It was used against them in the past. It’s a known tool of political repression. Liberty demands it abolishment.

[the_Watchman]

But if ALL of a America is a Promise Zone, then the government doesn’t get to choose who wins and loses!! This is clearly not the Chicago Doctrine!

[TexasCajun]

This is why Conservatives love Cruz!

It takes the Jr. Senator from Texas to make this statement instead of the Republican Leadership in the House or Senate, or the RNC!
