Cruz punted on Lawrence vs. Texas. Why?

He is for small government?

We have illegals invading our country

We are spending billions on health care for non citizens

schools and colleges for illegals as well

free housing and welfare for them and their children

Our country is going broke trying to pay for all of these “benefits” and “entitlements” to non citizens

we have an enemy (ISIS) that is sending over “refugees” to attack us from within

AND OUR BIGGEST CONCERN ARE THE QUEERS? WTF

When your house is on fire, the last thing you should be doing is arguing what color to paint the kitchen.....

Trump is unpredictable. Tge others are very predictable. They’ll get in, do the work their donors demand and we’ll be left out again

Trump supporters have no clue what they are getting into if their man is elected. He is so full of crap and he is playing on their fear concerns to boost himself. He will govern with a very liberal agenda. There will be no wall, there will be no making America great again. It will be like 0bama never left.

Ted smashed the IA turnout record to smithereens. Most Trump supporters initially claimed they preferred Cruz but he wasn’t ‘electable’.That’s changed since they were assimilated into the HIVE.

They wouldn’t go back to Ted if he won NH outright.

Everyone we have elected has lied. People are very very angry. Angry enough to say to heck with them all. I am with Trump.

Homosexuals have ALWAYS been equal under the law, they have ALWAYS had the exact same marriage rights as everyone else.

Perhaps Trump was "blindsided," but that's what happens when you run for office. The correct answer is, "I will do everything in my power to restore traditional marriage," not some version of "can't we all just get along."

The ONLY thing that Trump hasn't backpedaled on is "the Wall" and I don't believe for a second that he or anyone else could actually get one built.

Re post #15. Cruz is being financed by homosexual millionares who have fund raising dinners in NYC. Do you consider them sexual deviants too?

[He did not say what is claimed here, He responded to a loaded leading question that said it with a deflection saying he wanted to bring people together. Its dishonest to claim he said it and shows desperation.]

This just proves that Cruzers are either complete retards, or have the moral decency of a pile of dog turds to spread these lies around in hopes of people falling for the BS.

I put my money on the former...

Lawrence v Texas was in 2003.
How did Cruz punt on something he wasn’t involved in?

Sounded like a pretty non-committal answer to me. Bringing together does not mean support in terms they envision.

He could have been. He was solicitor general of Texas. With his knowledge and passion of the Constitution, he should have.

I listened to it.

I did too. This crap is endless. What is not endless that has just come to light is Cruz's tax plan that ends business contributions to Social Security. What that means is that you would no longer have a link between a specific tax and the promise of a Social Security payment.

This is the contrived beginning of the planned end of Social Security. Now some would applaud that (of course, Reagan raised the payroll tax to solidify Social Security)... but think what would happen in the general election once the democrats publish that little bit of information about Cruz - that businesses no longer support Social Security. Cruz would not carry a single state, not one.

It’s just exhausting keeping up with the endless chatter of those trying to parse every single word the man says.

I got words that should be parsed - “afterwards, we can have a dialogue about that” - Cruz on amnesty - SPIT

One deflects when one does not want to be held accountable for one’s position. He is apparnelty concerned about the reaction of those one side of the issue or the other, so he dodges the question.

Sounds a bit “feline”, wouldn’t you say?

“That’s a reason why I still cannot choose between DT and TC.”

Respectfully, I don’t get that at all.

Trump has a long history of being a con man and being a liberal. It’s very apparent he is saying anything to get elected.

Odds are, he knows he’s about to go bankrupt for the 5th time, and this one is for real. His only chance is to become president.

"“If I'm elected, I would be very strong on putting certain judges on the bench that I think maybe could change things, but they've got a long way to go.”

Is this different from Obama or the same?

For all his bluster, the man is astonishingly inarticulate when asked to be specific.

Yes, I don’t recognise this formerly (mostly) family-friendly site anymore. Now I see the phrase “church ladies” being used as an insult on this conservative, Christian site. Since when is it an insult for a conservative to be a church lady, or a church man?

From Jim Robinson’s statement regarding FR, found on the home page-

“As a conservative site, Free Republic is pro-God, pro-life, pro-family, pro-Constitution, pro-Bill of Rights, pro-gun, pro-limited government, pro-private property rights, pro-limited taxes, pro-capitalism, pro-national defense, pro-freedom, and-pro America. We oppose all forms of liberalism, socialism, fascism, pacifism, totalitarianism, anarchism, government enforced atheism, abortionism, feminism, homosexualism, racism, wacko environmentalism, judicial activism, etc. We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.”
