As Sen. Ted Cruz continues his marathon talk on the Senate floor, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said “he can always just read the Obamacare bill itself.”
“Hey, you know if Ted Cruz runs out of material there to speak of in this filibuster of his he can always just read the Obamacare bill itself, because I bet you no one else there on the Senate floor has actually read it,” Palin said Tuesday on Fox News’s “Hannity.”
“If he would read it though, then perhaps Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) she’d be watching the C-SPAN station there and she’d be able to say, ‘Oh, that is what is in it,” Palin said.
Palin also came prepared with props, comparing a Bible to the Obamacare bill, which has a reported 20,000 pages of regulations.
“You know, this Bible, and its large font and it’s full of commentary, this Bible itself is only 1,600 pages, can you imagine 20,000 pages of bureaucracy, of a boot on your neck bureaucracy, like Obamacare, that nobody’s read?” she said.
“No one could survive reading it that long, governor,” Fox host, Sean Hannity said. “God help him, he’ll be there for the rest of his life.”
Cruz (R-Texas), who took to the Senate floor Tuesday afternoon, has already turned to Dr. Seuss, reading “Green Eggs and Ham” to his daughters as they were put to bed.
