Isn’t there a command about bearing false witness against your neighbor. If Ted didn’t know he needs to address this situation because if don’t he is the same old same old sheet that refuse to stop Obama this last election.

Yes. Apparently, it doesn’t count if you’re in Ted’s particular sect of ‘’evangelism’’/ ‘’Christianity’’.

I am a tepid Trump supporter but part of me really is rooting for Cruz.

I just listened to Carson who I trust and though I know what defense the Cruz camp will take and is taking, Cruz is making it difficult to really like and respect him and his campaign. The mailers were just ridiculous and now this. It really stinks. Especially given how Cruz plays the Christian angle. He makes it tough to not think he is a phony.

Ben did good considering media black out on him. Because some one else was stab in back and lost in a contest does not mean Ben should let it pass. What happen is true an Ted doesn’t do anything it is the same as he knew and he don’t belong in the white house.

Cruz was NEVER for legalization.

That is simply not true. Cruz was for legalization before the gang of 8 bill debate, during the gang of 8 bill debate and after the gang of 8 bill debate. He was for it until Trump made enforcement of the immigration laws popular with the voters and then Cruz flipped to Trumps side on the issue.

I've never know Rand Paul to flat out lie. Here is what Rand has to say

========================================================== PAUL: I was there and I saw the debate. I saw Ted Cruz say, "we'll take citizenship off the table, and then the bill will pass, and I'm for the bill."

The bill would involve legalization. He can't have it both ways. But what is particularly insulting, though, is that he is the king of saying, "you're for amnesty." Everybody's for amnesty except for Ted Cruz.

But it's a falseness, and that's an authenticity problem -- that everybody he knows is not as perfect as him because we're all for amnesty. I was for legalization. I think, frankly, if you have border security, you can have legalization. So was Ted, but now he says it wasn't so. That's not true. ===============================================

Do some research like I have. Vet your candidate! The information is out there.

[[But it’s the media you should be mad at *if* they reported what Ben said incorrectly.]]

But but but- trumpies have fashioned such a lovely fashionable crown of thorns- how monsterous of you to suggest that they blame someone other than Ted- There’s such al lovely cross on the hill and now you are suggesting that no one hang from it? Egads man! What are we to do with our faux outrage then?

“Same can be said about Trump. Cruz needs Trump to stay viable and attack Rubio.”

Trump would still be a major player without Rubio, the game is more difficult.
Cruz—not so much.

I’m not saying it didn’t happen but Fox News is now officially in the bag for Rubio. All others need not apply.

“Carson is dropping out after this vote. Don’t waste your vote!”

Cruz never said that, so you are actually the one LYING, it seems to me.

You want to make them wear signs that say “I retweeted a CNN story”?

Doubly so on Carson’s part, if I read how it all started correctly (his ‘don’t read into that’ comment on him leaving for ‘clothes’)...expecting the media to shut their pie hole.

IMO, there ought to be a media black-out until all are tallied (it’ll also cut down on the ‘last minute stuffing’ attempts). All of this ‘up to the minute’ crap only serves to dissuade and dishearten voters/candidates

No big deal, it’s just world domination — that sort of thing.

Well if Ben’s supporters are dumb enough to listen to the other candidates then it’s their fault.

But they were told to TRUSTED!

Now you are saying that if we believe Ted's lies, it's our fault!
