Yeah, no.

Via CNS News:

Speaking on the Senate floor Wednesday afternoon, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) expressed surprise that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) chose to read “Green Eggs and Ham” by Dr. Seuss during his 21-hour speech, because the point of the story could be applied to Cruz’s distaste for Obamacare.

“I was also surprised that he used the book ‘Green Eggs and Ham’ as he read to his daughters, because anyone who knows that book knows that the moral of that book is try something before you condemn it, you might actually like it,” Schumer said.

“The main character in ‘Green Eggs and Ham’ resisted eating green eggs and ham. Maybe if he were a senator, he’d speak on the floor for 21 hours, but then when he tasted green eggs and ham, he actually liked them. Maybe Senator Cruz, as the president’s health care bill goes into effect, you may actually find that you and your constituents actually like it,” Schumer added.
