We Could Use President Ted Cruz Immediately
Joe for America ^ | November 19, 2015 | Michael Becker

Posted on 11/19/2015 9:23:05 AM PST by Isara

This is a statement put out by Ted Cruz after the Paris terrorist attacks by Muslims.

"America must stand with our allies against the scourge of radical Islamic terrorism. This is an evil that does not discriminate between French, German or American, Christian, Muslim or Jew, soldier, football player, or concert goer. Their only goal is to murder those who do not submit to their vicious, totalitarian ideology. Our deepest condolences go out to our French allies, and I know the government of the United States stands by to offer any assistance necessary.

ted-cruz"We must now face the facts. Between the downing of the Russian jet over Egypt and this massive coordinated attack on Paris, we are seeing an unmistakable escalation of ISIS' ambitions and the scale of their terrorist attacks outside Syria and Iraq. Even as chaos rages in Paris, we need to take immediate, common sense steps to preserve our own safety. We need to consult closely with our NATO allies who may be targeted for additional attacks. We need to immediately declare a halt to any plans to bring refugees that may have been infiltrated by ISIS to the United States. We need to redouble our efforts to prevent ISIS agents from penetrating our nation by other means.

"Such steps, however, are defensive reactions to an enemy that will continue to try to attack us until they succeed once again. We must immediately recognize that our enemy is not 'violent extremism.' It is the radical Islamism that has declared jihad against the west. It will not be appeased by outreach or declarations of tolerance. It will not be deterred by targeted airstrikes with zero tolerance for civilian casualties, when the terrorists have such utter disregard for innocent life. We must make it crystal clear that affiliation with ISIS and related terrorist groups brings with it the undying enmity of America-that it is, in effect, signing your own death warrant."

Compare Ted Cruz's comments to the smarmy statement by Barack Obama and the virtually complete silence from the Democrats.

We could use President Chauncy Gardner right now, at least it would be an improvement.

*******************

I don’t believe there is a process in place for that to happen. Maybe on Jan. 20, 2017.

An Excellent beginning to the SURGE portion of his outstanding campaign.

Behind all the guff and bluster...Obies so utterly gutless he wouldn’t dare say ANYTHING to Ted’s face.

Waiting for the Trump fanbois’ dismissive, “Cruz would be a great AG or VP within Trump’s cabinet” ...

(Yes, I am a huge fan of Cruz. And yes, I think Trump is a belligerent clown, an entertaining one that loves the stage and generates a lot of buzz ... but a clown nonetheless.)

Well....

There IS a process, by which we could REMOVE the one we now have, but apparently the first option, impeachment by the House and conviction resulting in removal by the Senate, is not viable.

Otherwise, except by death or declared disability of the person serving as President, there do not seem to be much else to hasten the installation of a different person as Commander in Chief. I leave to your collective imaginations how this objective may be achieved.

The latest reality check. LINK


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

Exactly how is Cruz a man of action? What has he done except be another professional politician?

He wins a few cases in court and that makes him a “man of action”.

Sorry he has no real experience in the real world.

Isara, you're total fraud, and if Levin thinks a guy who urges people to obtain a concealed carry permit and use it, is soft on crime, then so is he.

...or soft on the Second Amendment, as that graph states.

You're soft in the head or one someone's payroll.

Yeah, well you are going to need every last one of Trump’s voters to get Cruz elected, so you might want to stop belittling them.

You aren’t helping your candidate.

I’m sorry we really don’t need another politician. I would like to know who his benefactors are and what are they going to ask of him. We finally have someone running that isn’t going to be beholden to anyone but himself. And if Trump is running just to improve America to benefit his business I’m for it. Make America great aging is something we all need.

Absolutely. Obama must be deposed before we lose what’s left of our country to the Islamic barbarians and their caliphate.
