Sen. Ted Cruz: Will Texas prevent us from recognizing the heroes of the Alamo?

I am glad that Ted Cruz is standing up for American history.
Nikki Haley started the tearing down.

[Radix]

You are rattling their cages.

[Lurkinanloomin]

It’s unclear what citizenship his dad had in 1970.
He may have been Canadian by then.

[Mastador1]

His handle was probably something like dipwad or dipsh....

[keving]

Is this the McCain effect?

[Army Air Corps]

Texas Ping.

[NorthMountain]

DullProse: Please cease the circumlocution and obfuscation. Please state plainly what you mean about “kindred” and being “American”.

[rdb3]

We know what he means.

Jesus Christ: You can't impeach Him and He ain't gonna resign.

[NorthMountain]

Yeah, I know what he means. I just want him to say it.

[Honorary Serb]

The defenders of the Alamo included Tejanos!!!!

[ridesthemiles]

It took John Wayne almost 3 full years just to build the sets to make the movie.

[NorthMountain]

It's only "confusing" because you're being deliberately obfuscatory.

Yes, I said "deliberately".

Don't be shy, boy! Spell it out. Exactly WHAT do you mean by "the same natural kind"?

[Impy]

It is bizarre, then, that an advisory group recommended to the Texas Board of Education that it remove the words “all the heroic defenders” from the state’s social studies curriculum describing the men who gave their lives at the Alamo.

It's not bizarre. They are clearly Aztlán supporting leftists who think we "stole" Texas.

[jazusamo]

I believe you're correct but the Gov and LtGov got the attention of the leftists and they decided to retreat.

"Texas education board retreats on stripping 'heroic' Alamo defenders from curriculum"

[Impy]

” The problem with “the heroic defenders,” according to the panel, was that “heroic” was a “value charged word.””

Maybe they aren’t Aztlan supporters, this line here makes me think they just ODed on PC crack.

[jazusamo]

LOL! You make a valid point.
