Hysteria Over Ole Ted Cruz Illustrates What We’re Up Against.
Thy Black Man ^ | March 27, 2015 | Lloyd Marcus

"Wow! Can you believe how Ted Cruz is catching it from both sides in response to his powerful speech announcing his quest to win the White House in 2016? As expected, the Left is doing their typical thing calling Cruz extreme, stupid and crazy. Conservatives are taking shots at Ted Cruz because he has not mastered walking on water.

Folks, this is what you get when you have the cojones to take a bold stand for liberty and conservatism. The hysteria, outrage, slings and arrows coming from both sides of the political aisle targeted at Cruz is what a true conservative must be willing to endure.

For crying out loud, Cruz simply trumpeted traditional principles and values that Americans have celebrated since the Republic’s founding; American Exceptionalism, liberty, freedom, hard work, God and country. The problem is without even realizing it, many have succumb to the Left successfully tainting their thinking, lowering the nation’s behavioral bar and forcing political correctness down our throats. So when a Ted Cruz comes along, his message sounds edgy to those hearing it for the first time. And yet, I believe many will be instinctively drawn to it.

Why? Because conservatism connects with our higher self/spirit. It inspires people to be the best they can be. That is what attracted me to conservatism.

Jesus said, “My sheep hear my voice….and follow me.” Without a miracle, conservatism will not resonate with lazy deadbeats filled with class envy and hatred for achievers. It is a foreign language to them. All they care about is handouts and a free ride. Let the Democrats continue pandering to them; the chickens and turtles. Let’s take the higher ground, striving to attract eagles which I believe are a majority of the American people. This is why the Left is so terrified of Cruz, he knows how to spread the good news of conservatism. CRUZCONVENTION

Folks, we must stop Obama’s quest to diminish who we are, reducing us to a nation of part-time workers, dependent and subservient to big government. In the name of our founding fathers, we are Americans! Let’s act like it!

Both sides going nuts over Ted Cruz’s bold, upbeat and inspiring articulation of conservatism illustrates what we are up against. Even conservatives are saying Cruz is too this or not enough that. http://bit.ly/1BpQzJz Some conservatives feel Cruz so boldly preaching conservatism on the big stage is a little embarrassing and scary, careful not to be seen standing too close to him by the MSM. When asked, “Didn’t we see you with Ted Cruz?” They reply, “H— no, I never knew him!”

It has stuck in my craw for quite a while the way the Left has gotten away with pushing us around, bullying us into silence and tolerating every abhorrent behavior and religion under the sun. Meanwhile, when Ted Cruz dares to stand up for righteousness, Christianity, God and country the Left goes shock and awe ballistic on him.

Wimp-i-fied conservatives and political know-it-alls suggest that Cruz dial it back a bit; make himself more palatable to “mainstream” voters. Others say Cruz does not have a snowball’s chance of becoming the GOP nominee let alone winning the White House. I believe they are wrong. As I stated, like the gospel, conservatism is good news. My advice to Cruz is preach it brother, preach it!

I do not know about you guys, but I am done with moderate Republican clone presidential nominees like McCain, Romney, Jeb Bush and Christie. If I go down in defeat, I want to go down inspiring my fellow Americans to come up higher; fighting my butt off for liberty and freedom behind the likes of a Ted Cruz.

I don’t think he is catching much flak at all. The left appears to be stunned by his rise in the polls.

Have any new polls come out this week that show his rise? I have been checking RCP all day and haven’t seen anything new.

Cruz’s candidacy is worth it, even if he does not win, just to watch the moonbats, dem and pub, freak out.

That said, he will win of course and the moonbat freakout will go nuclear.

IMAGINE THAT LOL

.. of this flack, hysteria from just one speech from Ted Cruz.

Things are not what they seem.

If I had been in a comma for 15 or 16 months and woken up I would have thought that we are already in the general campaign season with Ted Cruz as the GOP-C. ( Common core CONSERVATIVE VALUES CANADATE, that’s what the C is for, hope everyone uses it ) Nominee for 2016 and ready to take on Elizabeth Warren.

Ted Cruz is getting all this free advertisement.

I get the feeling we are going to see some good suprizes in this campaign season with Ted Cruz, unprecedented.

VOTE FOR TED CRUZ 2016 : THE CONSERVATIVE CORE VALUES CANADATE ...... WHY SETTLE FOR ANYTHING LESS OR LOWER EXPECTATIONS ?

The RATS, RINOS and the commie lib media did all they could to Reagan and failed. Cruz has to follow the path made by Reagan.

There is a country called Iran that’s looking for Nukes N Freaks.

The leftist would find plenty of room in the desert air to fulfill their leftist Marxist dreams there.

The Left (in both the Republocrat and Demican Parties) is running around in circles with their hair on fire shrieking how he's unelectable and divisive ...

He makes all the right enemies.

Becuase he’s white ? nope, scratch that off the list, he’s Cuban Hispanic.

Because he’s a Global Warming denier ? nope, scratch that one off the list, their science is faulty and still can’t figure what Global science models to use.
