Ssssssssss.....

Hear the sizzling sound?

It’s called “Toast”...

He’s completely done for me.

[[You guys will all cheer him on... ]]

Do you know of a more conservative voice in the GOP? He might not be perfect- but for crying out loud, He’s leagues better than the rest of the gang running- And let’s not forget- He’s ‘suppsoed’ to be a genious- and perhaps there’s a reason he’s doen what He’s done in anticipation of future action that will put the kibosh to the whole kit and caboodle (That’s as technical as I can get- I don’t understand the whole workings of TPP TAA TPA etc)

[Bob434]

Sadly many one FR ‘taught America a lesson’ by refusing to support Romney because he wasn’t the ‘perfect GOP candidate’- and now we have an out of control _resident in the whitehouse doing whatever the hell he feels like- with NO opposition hardly- and trampling all over our constitutional rights- and IF these same self proclaimed FR republicans do thje same damn thing next time because Cruz isn’t the ‘perfect GOP candidate’ they think he should be- they will be giving the next democratic president the green light to complete the destruction of this country and violations of our constitutional rights-

The term I think is called ‘cutting off the nose to spite the face’

For all those who abstained from voting because Romney wasn’t perfect- thanks for letting loose the ‘man of lawlessness’ and giving him free reaign to destroy everything this country worked so hard to accomplish- That’ll teach us!

Yep!

Turns out Cruz voted NO on TPA for very good reasons.

He was attempting to ensure the very elements we’re afraid of, would not become part of TPA. You can only maintain that leverage by announcing CONDITIONAL support.

It is a different and more effective political tactic than announcing a negative position from the beginning.
