The Senate on Tuesday overwhelmingly approved Sen. John Kerry (D-MA) as the nation's next secretary of state. Newly elected Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) was one of three Senators who cast his vote against confirmation. Cruz explained his opposition in a statement shortly after:

"I was compelled to vote no on Senator Kerry's nomination because of his longstanding less-than-vigorous defense of U.S. national security issues and, in particular, his long record of supporting treaties and international tribunals that have undermined U.S. sovereignty," he said. "Now that he has been confirmed, I look forward to working with him in the years to come, hopefully, to protect our interests and preserve U.S. sovereignty."

1. Uh, Pretender pretending be a Senator. ..

I think Kerry's experience as a Senator and a diplomat has given Kerry more than enough credibility when it comes to understanding national security. He has been overseas doing diplomat work when Cruz was looking through dirty pictures as a boy. Including being in combat in Vietnam War.

[ProSense]

2. You have to understand that

he's competing with Rand Paul for the title of dumbest fucking Senator.

[Mass]

3. At this point, he has the lead,

even if Turkey should give Paul bonus points.

14. Cruz believes that Obama and the UN are trying to outlaw Golf!

4. Ted Cruz

is a boil on the ass of America.

5. For a guy who has a lot of university degree sheepskin, he is less-than-smart.

I am a less-than-ardent fan of Canada Cruz.

[Thinkingabout]

6. Ted Cruz again has proven he is not up to the task of being in the Senate. TeaBagger wrong

He does not know the Constitution by some of his statements even though he should by his education. You can't help dumb here, he is making a name for himself and it is not good. My desire is to have him a one time Senator.

[malaise]

7. Cruz is a first rate moron

He's all hot air with no substance.

[Drunken Irishman]

8. What war did Cruz fight in? Oh let me guess ... another fucking Chicken Hawk.

[Hekate]

9. That's Mr. Secretary of State Kerry to you

Swiftboating John Kerry only worked once for the GOP.

[heather blossom]

10. Credentials

And Mr Cruz- your foreign policy credentials are?

[Brother Buzz]

11. Definitely an antisocial type. Woof, woof, woof! That's my other dog imitation.

[Downwinder]

12. Listen to the chicken hawk squawk.

[Octafish]

13. Puro BFEE
