First there was HillaryCare.

Next there was ObamaCare.

We can't afford Tumpcare.


"Here's a guy, gets up in Iowa and he said, 'Donald Trump wants Obamacare.' You know, it's a flat out lie," said Trump about Ted Cruz. (Screen shot)

Trumpertantrum hit the spot, too. Left a nice mark.

Trump can dish it out but he cannot take it.

He reminded me of the frat jocks of Revenge of the Nerds.

Cruz has stepped up his game.

I was worried early on that he was being too laid back, but obviously he was waiting for the right time to pounce and now he has Trump on the defensive.

Seriously? Trump says: 'Ted Cruz gave us Obamacare'

"Donald Trump is blaming rival Ted Cruz - wrongly - for President Barack Obama's health care law.

Trump says Cruz is "the one that got Justice Roberts onto the United States Supreme Court. He pushed him, he approved him and Justice Roberts approved Obamacare twice when it should have been rejected."

Trump says, "Ted Cruz gave us Obamacare."

Cruz did indeed support John Roberts' nomination. But Roberts was confirmed in 2005, years before Cruz was elected to the Senate.............

Cruz won by tricking voters into thinking their candidate was exiting the race. Hope he enjoys that win. With this, and with his Voter Violation notice, I learned about Cruz in Iowa.

Can you just imagine the 4 year long smirk if he cheated grandly enough to actually win the elections?

A surgeon won’t be able to remove it.

I just know that it was like hijacking planes with boxcutters. A “get away with it one time” thing. In November what’s his bright idea, on election day tell everyone Hillary dropped out?

This is exactly the kind of banana republic thing id like America to get away from.

“Cruz did indeed support John Roberts’ nomination. But Roberts was confirmed in 2005, years before Cruz was elected to the Senate.............”

Why are you falsely denying that Ted Cruz is the person responsible for “recruited future Chief Justice John Roberts and noted attorney Mike Carvin to the Bush legal team”? See:

Bush administration

Cruz joined the George W. Bush presidential campaign in 1999 as a domestic policy adviser, advising then-Governor George W. Bush on a wide range of policy and legal matters, including civil justice, criminal justice, constitutional law, immigration, and government reform.[48]

Cruz assisted in assembling the Bush legal team, devising strategy, and drafting pleadings for filing with the Supreme Court of Florida and U.S. Supreme Court, in the case Bush v. Gore, during the 2000 Florida presidential recounts, leading to two wins for the Bush team.[44][51] Cruz recruited future Chief Justice John Roberts and noted attorney Mike Carvin to the Bush legal team.[49]

After President Bush took office, Cruz served as an associate deputy attorney general in the U.S. Justice Department[5][51] and as the director of policy planning at the U.S. Federal Trade Commission.[5][40][51]

Now, I ran across a website today, first time. It's named PolitiStick, P-o-l-i-t-i-s-t-i-c-k. And the write here is Jennifer Burke. The headline: "Uh-Oh, Was Marco Rubio Guilty in the Ben Carson Dropout Rumor?"

You mean the Hollywood screenwriter, Craig Mazin, and not the other college roommate who is the godfather to Cruz’s children, right?

Actually, it’s going to be about a 4 day smirk that will be wiped off Ted’s face as soon as he loses the vote in NH. His fleeting brush with glory will soon come to a crashing halt.

Nowadays if a moron tries the boxcutter thread he will find half the planes passengers fighting to break all his finger joints, and the crew teady to toss him out the door at 10,000 feet.

Maybe the learning curve will be applied to the next election, voters won’t take lies to the ballot boxes.

I have faith America is willing to take the risks and will attack rather than allow themselves to be flown into skyscrapers again figuratively of course.

Cruz taunts, jabs and insults, and is holding a box cutter telling people to vote for him, or else just won’t fly.

I’m pretty sure Cruz already has factored in that NH will not be a state he will do well in. I think most of the candidates will be happy with a top three showing in these early states.

And good folks like Santorium see the light early and drop out. And others (jeb???) will too.
