CRUZ: So she’s taking an unpaid leave of absence from her job and so we’re transitioning — we’ll be getting new health insurance and we’ll presumably do it through my job in the Senate. So we’ll be on the federal exchange like millions of others, uh, on the federal exchange.
BASH: So you will be getting Obamacare, effectively.
CRUZ: It is one of the good things about Obamacare is that the statute provided that members of Congress would be on the exchanges without subsidies just like millions of Americans, so there wouldn’t be a double standard.
BASH: But senator, for right now, the irony is just kind of unbelievable that you have made your name fighting against Obamacare, and you now are going to sign up to get your insurance through that very process of Obamacare.
CRUZ: Listen, it was the case before Obamacare, that federal employees could get health insurance through their jobs. That’s not a new development. So yes, I’ll get my insurance through my job like, like millions of other Americans. That’s not a shocking–
BASH: Will you take a subsidy from your job, which is the federal government?
CRUZ: We will follow the text of the law. I strongly oppose the exemption that President Obama illegally put in place for members of Congress because Harry Reid and the Senate Democrats didn’t want to be under the same rules as the American people.BASH: That means you are going to take a government subsidy?
CRUZ: I believe we should follow the text of the law.
BASH: The law that you want to repeal.
CRUZ: Yes, no, I believe we should follow the text of every law, even laws I disagree with.

Now you are learning, Cruz is a hypocrite, like all the rest of the righties. They promote less government but at the same time they are on the dole. It's a con job, to get votes from the weapons nutters.

1) Sign up via Healthcare.gov as individuals rather than federal employees and forego the premium-sharing.

4) Or he could do what Rep. Patrick Murphy (D-FL) and Sen. Mike Enzi (R-WY) did — return the premium-sharing to the federal government.
