Bill Ted Cruz for the shutdown?

Why not?:
How does sabotaging commerce help the economy or people in need?
His dad's a bigger asshole than he is, I guess it's possible after all.

Let's go for it. And while we're at it, Gov. Christie needs to be billed for those days of traffic jams.

The Republicans are the party of personal responsibility, aren't they?

I third the motion.
Didn't Reagan shut down airports?

I don't think so. I think a Reagan acolyte would argue that Reagan reopened the airports when he replaced the PATCO controllers with scabs.

I remember the Reagan admin for reneging on commitments made to military vets via Graham-Rudman. "See, we cut taxes!".

I have seen no conviction of this. Just a trial by leftwing media.

Do you not believe in the justice system? Are people guilty until proven innocent?

Bill Obama for the vast government fraud under his administration.

I don't have time to post the vastness of examples right now, but will to show hypocrisy.

Christie has "plausable deniability", so far. Regardless it has no-doubt rendered him 'damaged goods' as a cross-over candidate for the top spot.
If it doesn't come back on him personally it reflects badly on a trend in his admin for retaliation at the expense of the public.

If this was a court, you'd have a point. Since it's a forum for opinion, you don't.

But I assume you will now stop criticizing anyone unless a court has found them guilty first. Otherwise, you'd be a hypocrite. You'd hate to be what you always say others are, wouldn't you?
