Obama has not served the country well. Why should Cruz compromise with broken?

Sheesh.
The author would prefer an effeminate limp wrist who would assume “downward facing dog” position for our enemies.

“But, as I have written in the past (first here and then here), his uncompromising voting record and his brash rhetoric (particularly against President Obama)...”

Geez - this dweeb from HuffPost makes it sound like this is a bad thing?

To quote the Senator: “If you want another Republican who will go along to get along, I ain’t your guy”.

Once I read that it was reduculous to compare zer0 with chamberlain on the Iran fiasco I stopped reading. Zer0 is not like chamberlain. Chamberlain was a patriotic Briton who foolishly believed Hitler. zer0bama believes the ayatollah because he HE IS IN BED WITH HIM and for the destruction of America.

Huffington post is a silly place to post from.

This writer reasons like a child.

But then what are progressive but bed wetting hold-my-breath-till-I-get-my-way children?

“...particularly at a time when politics to most Americans already resemble a giant food fight among adults who are dressed in really nice, expensive suits....”

A food fight is putting it mildly. His side, and a lot of people who are supposedly on our side, are actually fine with putting us in jail. The president is openly praising a group that’s actively executing cops. So this political thingy is shaping out to be a real fight, with blood spilling, and all manner of nastiness. Yeah, so I would say Cruz is exactly what we need right now. The left and the oligarchs might be happy keeping us nice and genteel while they divide the spoils of our diminished liberty, but many of us are ready for a fight. We’re not that far off from a real fight, Danny.

“The smart way to keep people passive and obedient is to strictly limit the spectrum of acceptable opinion, but allow very lively debate within that spectrum - even encourage the more critical and dissident views. That gives people the sense that there's free thinking going on, while all the time the presuppositions of the system are being reinforced by the limits put on the range of the debate.” ― Noam Chomsky

And from the article (talking about the Supreme Court):
>>>>>>"interpreted the Constitution as they saw fit"<<<<<<<

Yeah, that...Daniel DePetris just reinforced Cruz' argument. And provides another piece of evidence to me that the current document needs to be replaced with something that won't permit crap like that to happen.

Since when was the sitting President ‘off limits’ during a Presidential election?

U.S. History recants raucous Presidential elections, but then American citizens were educated and informed on the issues.

A few quotes from his Heritage foundation speech.

“We need to elect a president that is as committed to conservative principles as Barack Obama is to liberal principles”

“1/2 GOP SC justice nominees screaming train wreck disasters”

“If you have judges behaving like politicians they can’t expect 2B exempt from the authority of We the People”

“We cannot elect a Republican president who will simply manage the decline of this country.”

The author is an idiot.

“a verification and monitoring system over Iran’s nuclear program that is stronger than traditional arms control deals...”

By who’s standards?

24 day notification....AFTER jumping through several other hoops.

Self inspection?

And he really believes Iran is giving up centrifuges and enriched uranium?

Whatta clown....

his uncompromising voting record and his brash rhetoric (particularly against President Obama) does not serve the country well

... Clearly the author is an enemy of the Republic.
