Presidential candidate Senator Ted Cruz made a campaign stop in Beaumont, TX on Tuesday, May 19. He was asked repeatedly by Kevin Steele from KMBT-TV about the issue of gay marriage, to which Cruz responds by turning the tables. (via Joe Walsh)
SEN. TED CRUZ: Let me ask a question: Is there something about the left, and I am going to put the media in this category, that is obsessed with sex? Why is it the only question you want to ask concerns homosexuals? Okay, you can ask those questions over and over and over again. I recognize that you're reading questions from MSNBC...
You're wincing. You don't want to talk about foreign policy. I recognize you want to ask another question about gay rights. Well, you know. ISIS is executing homosexuals. You want to talk about gay rights? This week was a very bad week for gay rights because the expansion of ISIS, the expansion of radical, theocratic, Islamic zealots that crucify Christians, that behead children and that murder homosexuals. That ought to be concerning you far more than asking six questions all on the same topic.
REPORTER: Do you have a personal animosity against gay Americans?
CRUZ: Do you have a personal animosity against Christians sir?[continued]

Cruz cut and slash.
Add a tidbit of humor and he’ll have the election in the bag.
Thank GOD for Ted Cruz. Now, instead of looking like a deer caught in the headlights, Cruz is throwing it back at them. So now, when ever these liberals, socialists and communists tries to “INTERVIEW” Cruz, with all sorts of “GOT CHA” questions, he is forcing them to THINK. I would dearly love for all these republican candidates will do the same.
Yes. Turn it around, expose their true nature and let them have the defensive position.
Wasn’t Rick Perry a pilot too?
From what I understand about McCain, he wasn’t the 7.0 pilot he could have been.
Wasn’t he responsible for the Forrestal on-deck missile fire?
“If the left were truly concerned about “gay rights” they’d be really concerned about the expansion of Islam.”
I love him pointing out the hypocrisy.
I hope he has excellent security. The left has to be scared that he will expose the rest of their sacred cows.
I think almost all leftists understand that if their agenda is exposed and known by the populace,
they’d never see power again.
Gay Rights = Anti Christian
I dunno, but as I recall, he’s a negative ace, having lost at least five aircraft to accidents. Good thing dad and granddad were admirals.
I wouldn’t say “equals”.
But I would say it’s a cover, and excuse of the left.
They don’t really give two hoots about homos.
But they HATE Christians.
Indeed.
“Ted Cruz is the canadate that we have sought....”
No, he has renounced his Canadian citizenship.
;^)
W. Was a fighter pilot. Daddy Bush was a torpedo bomber pilot. Perry was—IIRC a transport driver. Never Say A Bad Word About A Democrat But Attack Republicans McCain flew A4 attack jets.
Actually, I thought, “THWACK” was a better description.
In other words, got to APPEAR as “ The Nice Guys “
Rush is playing this right now. He says THIS is how a candidate should do it.
Agree completely. The difference between liberals and conservatives is that a liberal will advocate on behalf of people they hate in order to control people they don’t care about. McCain is a liberal. It doesn’t matter what letter is printed after your name.
The test is easy - if someone is advocating on behalf of people they can’t stand so that they can rob you of a little more liberty, then there you go.
Funny thing about that clip. I noticed that the woman covers the WRONG side of her face. Usually one would cover the area of the slap, not the other side of the face.
I LOVE LOVE LOVE that reply! Cruz has to TAKE IT TO the leftist media. It will ensure his election! Americans are SO FED UP with these yahoos telling us what we should think.
Sorry for the yelling guys, but it has just been a very long time since someone actually stood up to these bullies. I love it!
Maybe “You big dummie”?
