Sen. Ted Cruz goes all Godfather at term limits hearing

It’s no secret that U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz loves movies and in particularly “The Godfather” trilogy.

He’s brought up the movies during campaign stops going back for years, and did it again Tuesday at a Senate hearing on term limits. Cruz explained to the Senate how members of Congress are like Michael Corleone, the lead character played by Al Pacino.

Cruz, a longtime advocate of term limits for Congress, said he believes most members of Congress go to Washington with good intentions, but then the dominant desire becomes getting re-elected.
