Yes, that's an actual headline. I suppose Leslie would not see the irony contained in that headline.

What’s Princess Buttercup going to do, deploy ground troops on Cruz?
Enforce a no-fly zone above Cruz?
Get John McCain to call him a whacko bird?

Grahamnesty should just shut up and go away. He can’t even talk without a whine to his voice.

I’m not worried about Cruz losing ground because he advises against going to war with Russia in Syria.
Besides, the constant, years long drumbeat of the media against our involvement in Iraq has made criticising a non-military interventionist policy in the middle east a non-starter.

5 years ago, if I had to bet on whether Bruce Jenner or Lindsay Graham would “become a woman in the next 5 years”, I would have lost that bet.

Not clicking through to Vanity Fair, thank you. Who IS Princess Buttercup? Hitlery, or Carly?

I just think that these people who are so adamantly calling for a “No Fly Zone” over Syria are batsh*t crazy. Russia was invited in by Syria and Iraq. So, we’re going to overrule the sovereign countries, fire at a Russian plane, and start a BIG shooting war with the Russians over this? That’s just nuts. Anyone pushing this is immediately disqualified in my mind. They’re going to cause millions to get killed.

Perhaps the most-repeat-viewed and most-quoted movie ever made.
But best left out of serious political debate.
Although it would be fun to have Cruz call Hillary a miserable vomitous mass and a warthog-faced buffoon in a debate.

If someone should know what a princess wants it’d be Linda.

I thought that “Princess Buttercup” was Lindsey Graham’s nickname in the Senate.

Cruz is among those who have suggested that America might want to reconsider its insistence on removing Syrian president Bashar al-Assad and instead team up with Russia and Iran, both of which support Assad, to focus the fight on ISIS. After announcing that he has a message for âmy friend Ted Cruz,â Graham said, Ted, getting in bed with Iran and Russia to save Assad is inconceivable. Princess Buttercup would not like this.âAHAHA - Gramsey hasn't read the newspaper?
It's done. Putin told 'em it's the way it's gonna be - and sKerry has slunk off, head in hand- pretending he and O'Bo had any say about it.
