[font color=330099]Disclaimer: This is the third time tonight that I've posted a thread involving Ted Cruz. I am not obsessed with Ted Cruz. I am not infatuated with Ted Cruz. I am not fond of Ted Cruz. As a matter of fact, I despise Ted Cruz which is why I added the Randy Rainbow video at the end.[/font]

A newly released financial disclosure report shows Ted Cruz accepted $45,000 in private flights last year during his presidential campaign.

The $45,000 was split between two flights, both originating out of Houston.

The more expensive of the two, a $30,000 charter flight in September to the Cayman Islands for Cruz and his family, came from Michael and Natasha Bleyzer.

Michael Bleyzer is the president, chief executive and founding partner of the private-equity investment firm SigmaBleyzer. He formerly held executive positions with ExxonMobil and Ernst & Young.
