myFOXaustin (Austin) - At the Capitol on Saturday, U.S. Senator John Cornyn was booed during his speech at the “Take Back America Tea Party.”
 

As the Senator was trying to speak, many were calling him a traitor. Cornyn was the only Senator who did not vote on the stimulus plan.
 

He had previously announced that he will be taking a stand against what he thinks is wasteful spending and unprecedented government growth.
 

The Senator even had a few words about Governor Sarah Palin’s recent resignation announcement. “It’s a little hard to know what to make of it, it could be a very shrewd move to allow her to prepare for the 2012 election,” said Cornyn. Cornyn also said that Palin’s decision may also be a move to get out of politics all together.
