GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) came out with a new video on Tuesday, highlighting a straight Iowa couple who operates a wedding services business and refused to do business with a same-sex couple. It's a marked contrast with Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, who used her presidential launch video to draw attention to same-sex couples who were about to get married.
While some GOP candidates have tried to avoid talking much about same-sex marriage, Cruz has been more vocal in his opposition. In April, he introduced legislation to push a constitutional amendment protecting states that barred marriage equality. And after the Supreme Court legalized same-sex marriage nationwide last month, Cruz said that states could essentially just ignore the justices' decision.
Dick and Betty Odgaard own and operate Gortz Haus Gallery in Grimes, Iowa, a former church that they converted into a bistro. In 2013, they turned away a same-sex couple who inquired about renting the wedding venue. The Odgaards, who are Mennonites, refused to work with the two men because of their sexual orientation....

No cake for you!!
I’d bake the cake. But I would cough up the biggest disgusting loogie and make it part of the ingredients. Then have my dog piss in it for icing.

Well, a little ex-lax could make for an awfully messy honeymoon.
They like that...
THE SWINE!!!
THAT’S IT! TED CRUZ JUST LOST MY VOTE!!!
AGAIN!!!
AND OTHER IDIOTIC STATEMENTS IN ALL CAPS!!!
Because he has guts, and a finely honed sense of right and wrong. No one is going to intimidate Cruz.
We badly need him to lead this country.
Go, Cruz, GO!!
Oh, YUCK! I should have known. I’ll admit I’m not up on the pervert preferences, that Justice Kennedy thinks deserve dignity.
If you like the idea of continued “gaylas” in the White House, Walker is your man. If you want someone to fight for Religious Liberty and traditional marriage, Cruz is the only one in the race leading the fight.
“Id bake the cake. But I would cough up the biggest disgusting loogie and make it part of the ingredients. Then have my dog piss in it for icing.”.......
From what I understand of the gay bunch, your cake wouldn’t be any worse than what the do with each other.
No argument from me. :)
There, fixed it.
In moral support of Cruzs statement, please bear in mind that regardless what pro-gay activist justices want everybody to believe about the constitutionality of gay marriage, Congress has already exercised its constitutional authority under the Full Faith and Credit Clause (4.1) to clarify that states dont have to recognize gay marriages from other states as evidenced by Section 2 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) which is evidently still in effect.

Wimp Congress evidently didn't want its official stance against constitutionally unprotected gay marriage to be in the limelight before an election year and risk losing votes from low-information, LGBT voters who evidently dont understand that the feds, including the Supremes, have no constitutional authority to regulate marriage.
Corrupt Congresss unconstitutional remedy to this situation, imo, was evidently to sweep the issue under the carpet by wrongly letting pro-gay activist justices get away with legislating the so-called right to gay marriage from the bench.
After all, activist justices probably have no fear of being removed from the bench for making gay marriage a right outside the framework of the Constitution because the corrupt, post-17th Amendment ratification Senate is likely not willing to work with the House to do so.
The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, along with corrupt senators and pro-gay activist justices.
Any person who calls themselves a conservative, yet isn’t supporting Ted Cruz for president...........is both a fraud and a liar.
Norm, honey? Trying to stir the masses? LOL
Well if this Cruz guy keeps it up then a liberal republican could lose votes and I am pretty sure history shows that many on the conservative side DEMAND lesser evil every election so Ted just doesn’t meet that lofty standard...
Which is just awful considering all the good lesser evil has done to benefit conservatism and America.
Some just don’t understand! It is awful. You HAVE to choose some kind of “evil” instead of “good”. The lesser of two evils is still evil. It’s just “less”
