Ted Cruz Lists Five Things He’ll Do On His First Day in Office
Legal Insurrection ^ | 08/11/2015

Posted on 08/11/2015 1:15:49 PM PDT by SeekAndFind

Following last Thursday’s debate, Ted Cruz’s support has more than doubled according to an NBC poll. Matthew Burke reports:

In a new NBC News/Survey Monkey poll released on Sunday, Texas Senator Ted Cruz, a constitutional conservative, catapulted into second place overall, increasing by a whopping 7% over the prior poll, putting him at 13% overall, more than doubling his prior support of 6%, according to the poll.

Cruz, a former national collegiate debate champion, soared despite having his debate performance largely put on mute mode by major media outlets, including FOX News.

Although Trump still leads in this poll, this is a very nice bump for Cruz. This news comes on the tail of a debate performance, particularly involving ISIS, that Frank Luntz calls “great news for Cruz.”

YAWN!

Oh brother, you guys are going to lose so big it will be embarrassing for you.

Of all the things in the world, that's the best he can do?

Do you think people are going to flock to the polls for this?

And don't get me started (again) on how HE facilitated Obama on the Iran deal , before it was even a deal.

He's being very deceitful on that Iran deal and I'm not the only one that knows it.

If he was smart he'd never mention that again because what he did is going to blow up in his face...big time.

6. Slam shut the border.
Fraid not. Green cards and H1B visas all around. Don't take my word for it. Check his web page under immigration.

Payback for that new motorhome.

IMHO:

Ted should be V.P. to Trump, let Trump take the heat, he’ll fire everyone and start over...

Have Trump lead off with closing the border and throwing every illegal immigrant out of the country...

Let Trump go after the GOPe and Hillary and her ilk

Let Trump go after Planned Parenthood ‘baby killers’

Let Trump go after Iran and IsIs...

Then after all the dirty work is done, in 4 years, Cruz could go in for 8 years and the Nation would be back to where it should be, instead of Clintons, Bushes.....

AND then it’s up to US to keep it that way....

Cruz should be yellow on immigration as he is in favor of legal status for most illegal here. Trump would send them home.

I think I stayed in that hotel once. Oh wait, that’s the oval office after Obama redecorated it. The 6th thing he ought to do it get rid of the wallpaper.

Great start - I’ll give him time to eliminate the departments of education, energy and HUD, then sell off the VA properties, give every vet free private insurance, and reduce the VA down to what’s needed to administer the insurance cards.

The Little Sisters of the Poor, he said, “would receive a letter in the mail that their case has been dismissed.” He said they would also receive “an invitation to the White House to tell their story to the world.”

God bless him! Catholic ping!

Wow! A pro-Catholic action:

**The Little Sisters of the Poor, he said, “would receive a letter in the mail that their case has been dismissed.” He said they would also receive “an invitation to the White House to tell their story to the world.”**

RE: Nothing about abolishing Obamacare?

That will be done, but you can’t do it in one fell swoop, it will be very disruptive to do it.
