I’m serious, and this is not necessarily against you, SeekAndFind ... I am INCREDIBLY tired of reading Ted Cruz threads where Ted did or said something really fine, and having FReepers — of all people! — whine that, “Yeah, but he didn’t do THIS!” or “He didn’t do THAT!” Can we stop these ridiculous knee-jerk reactions and get behind SOMEONE in power who obviously lives a political life in a way Ronald Reagan would heartily approve, and who has PROVEN HIMSELF one of the two or three U.S. Senators unafraid to actually TAKE ON this incredibly corrupt Administration. Sorry for the rant, but we need to STOP criticizing our friends and start supporting them. The hour is getting LATE!

I had the same reaction as you to SeekandFind's comment. I said to myself, "Why does there always have to be something wrong when people [like Cruz] who are fighting for us speak out boldly?" There is always someone ready with a "yeah, but..."

It is no surprise the Left keeps moving the ball down the field when those of us on the Right are always forming a circular firing squad.

Oh well, at least no one on this thread [yet] has blasted Cruz for being a liberal member of the GOPe.

I’m with you on this. I’m just thankful for what he does which is a helluva a lot more than most of them to which is serving their own self-interests. Thank God, Rafael Cruz taught Ted about politics at the dinner table growing up!

Amen to your rant, no apology needed!

Well said.

Since the “Ted Cruz isn’t a natural born citizen” meme isn’t getting much traction, concern trolls are starting to pop up lately with this argument:

“I like Ted Cruz, but he should stay in the Senate where he can do the most good. I’m concerned that he isn’t old enough and hasn’t had much executive experience.”

Watch for it.

Well said, thank you.

Love Ted Cruz. Most GOP are too timid to speak up. I remember during his filibuster . . . how many GOPe supported him? About Zero. He’s not perfect but he’s one of the best we’ve got right now. My Senator, Jeff Sessions, did support him . . . and is actively fighting amnesty and O on this. But he too almost stands alone.

He ain’t no purist and he ain’t gonna get many votes. Too unclean.
