If McCarthy hadn’t drunk himself and his career to an early grave, he WOULD have been Ted Cruz a half-century ago. He would have been remembered as one of the lions of the Senate and maybe even have gained higher office.
Joe McCarthy was right.
Let’s start that conversation by acknowledging we aren’t going to deport 12 million illegal immigrants... bringing these workers out of the shadows and into being taxpaying members of society. Imagine 12 million people who are already here coming out of the shadows to become new taxpayers.12 million more people assimilating into society. 12 million more people being productive contributors. [but he’s not in favor of amnesty, snicker, definition of is is]
...by softening its edge on some volatile social issues and altering its image as the party always seemingly "eager to go to war... We do need to expand the party and grow the party and that does mean that we don't always all agree on every issue" ... the party needs to become more welcoming to individuals who disagree with basic Republican doctrine on emotional social issues such as gay marriage... "We're going to have to be a little hands off on some of these issues ... and get people into the party," Paul said.
I am amazed at the colossal ignorance of the writer! First of all, Joe McCarthy was CORRECT! Is the writer, in some warped way, praising Cruz? Or, does the writer want to show the world that journalism has been long gone?
I think the writer simply does not know much about anything. His writing is laced with unsupported and unsupportable assertions about the cost of Obamacare, its destructive effects, its unimplementable state, not to mention its unpopularity across the country.
Some readers would like to see more than hysterical, meaningless babble, and perhaps, instead, a rational argument supported by some facts.
They are using the McCarthy script? Good night! They are reaching for an old playbook. The Venona project proved that McCarthy was right and, in this case, Sen. Ted Cruz is right.
Sen. Cruz revealed something that needs to be shouted to the rooftops. Sen. Cruz learned from Sen. Reid that the health care “train wreck,” due to Obamacare is the expected result. It’s intended purpose is to destroy our free market system of medicine (think of the job losses this would create). Sen. Reid knows that when Obamacare destroys the free market health care system, it would cause a crisis that would call for the institution of government controlled single payer socialized medicine. That is what the “train wreck” was designed to do.
These commie DemonRATs are the Devil’s Servants.
Those same Communists inside our government used the personal defamation script against Sen. Joe McCarthy to destroy the truth of communist infiltration in our free nation. Now those same Communists are using the same personal defamation script against Sen. Ted Cruz to hide the Communist infiltration of Obamacare into our free nation.
What is so insane is that these Yahoos are so stupid to make the association and do not realize they are revealing who they are. They are the same Communist that I spent may early years hiding from under my school desk. I never realized that I would find out that Sen. Joe McCarth was right. The Communist are now within.
McCarthy was right then and Cruz is right now!
Shirley, you jest!
The venom directed at Cruz is fueled by anti-Hispanic racism. If the libs are going to call critics of Obama racist, libs should be called racists when they attack Cruz.
I believe Cruz has made the bigtime.
How this plays out, remains to be seen, but he’s now way, way out front in so many ways.
Ted Cruz is no republican leader. He’s a conservative leader.
The yelping and screaming from within the GOPe confirms that.
The intensity of hate, Reagan was so hated before he was elected president.
I hear the media and the communists they serve fomenting hate against Cruz, but I hear none of it from the people.
McCarthy was correct.
.
Bullshit, that is not what Cruz said.
I watched and he was responding to Senator Kaine from VA who said that he promised his voters that he would support obamacare and why should he change his position.
Cruz responded by saying that prior to 1940, many congress critters promised their voters that they would vote against America going to war, but after circumstances changed, {i.e. December 7, 1941, when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor...
Let him go, he's on a Roll...
After that, all the peace-nicks changed their vote, and most Americans were with them. Kinda like how we feel about obamacare.
