Texas loon Ted Cruz has ended his absurdly stupid fake “filibuster” today, just in time for his appearance on the Rush Limbaugh show.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) ended his 21-hour-plus marathon protest against ObamaCare with a plea to his Senate GOP colleagues to “unite” in a bid to prevent Democrats in the upper chamber from funding the healthcare law in a bill to keep the federal government running.

“I would call on all 46 Republicans to unite, to stand together and vote against cloture on the bill,” Cruz said, spurring applause.

And it gets even stupider and more offensive, because before ending his monumental yak-a-thon, Cruz compared his speech to the Bataan Death March. Good grief. What the hell is wrong with these people?
