In matters of my faith in Jesus Christ
I weigh the facts presented

...ahh, you’re a lousy believer since you deal in gossip, against the simple 10 commandments. There are no facts presented, nice try you embarassing gossip!

ymmv

still support Cruz after the Carson debacle? The threatening voter debacle? The emails claiming Rubio is leaving the race

...and if you believe the above dishonest, non-story leftist Alinski smear lines, then you are a tRumpary kool-aid swallower!

Here’s my take.

Drew “confirmed” that two of the women were “accurate.”

When he confirmed that, he didn’t have independent proof of an affair. He’s not an investigative reporter, btw. He was confirming that two of the women who were pictured (but not named) in the National Enquirer piece were two women who were rumored to have had affairs with Ted Cruz.

Because of his (intentionally?) sloppy wording, he put his employer in a bad place of being linked to an unsupported National Enquirer piece and they had to let him go. Twitter and the blogosphere exploded with “Washington Times reporter confirms...”

In a subsequent tweet, when pressed for details, Drew coyly declined to give any details saying another source had the story and they had their information.

I don't know. Perhaps. No one will be suing the National Enquirer. They will threaten to sue, but they won't. The Legal Discovery process itself would be prove to be a nightmare of embarrassment for several of the people involved because I believe it is true.

Perhaps in this next piece, the National Enquirer can make a factual claim about Cruz's affairs. They haven't yet.

Yes, who took that photo? Also, there appears to be what looks like a man’s shirt on the chair.

Smears my arse! You know damn well what happened to Carson in Iowa. Even the Iowan States Attorney said what Cruz did was Wrong if not criminal.

You are an insidious snake if you support Cruz.

Sensor? Are you serious?//

Absolutely serious. You cruzard Trump haters would love to suppress anything that doesn’t praise your boy.

I can understand your confusion and frustration that your boy is getting beaten like a drum by a “NY liberal.” But that’s life.

In other matters of life (economics, politics, etc), I weigh the facts presented. In terms of this issue, I believe Cruz is guilty of adultery and lying. That's my opinion.

What do you believe in?


I think there is plenty of time to wait before condemning a man who has been faithful in representing the values of Liberty in Washington.

Deuteronomy 17:6 “At the mouth of two witnesses, or three witnesses, shall he that is worthy of death be put to death; but at the mouth of one witness he shall not be put to death.”

Deuteronomy 19:15 “One witness shall not rise up against a man for any iniquity, or for any sin, in any sin that he sinneth: at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established.”

Proverbs 14:15 “The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going.”

Proverbs 16:27-280 “An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire. A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.”

The last two verses give the modus operandi of the National Enquirer and to a large degree the rest of the media. There's plenty of time to let the dust settle before the stoning begins.

You don’t get to judge, you freakin flakejob. You are not God (I know, I know, that must be a shock to you). You aren’t Jesus. You don’t get to decide who is sinning and who isn’t.

Besides, WTF are you talking about, me gossiping? If I was REALLY to gossip, I might make note of the fact that your text looks like you are drinking, before noon, which is the mark of a dedicated alcoholic. I might mention that you are clearly an alcoholic who desperately needs intervention and AA.

Facts? Well, Some people say... Video? Ohh It's damning alright. Look there he is with a Campaign Aid coming out of Restraunt. OOoooh Boy that's BAD!

I've seen no absolute proof. That's not usually available to the public.

I have seen Ted Cruz making a less than definitive denial, some very strange tweets by Amanda Carpenter, Ted and Amanda's matching temporary Churchill tattoos, and Heidi Cruz vanishing from the campaign trail.

If it's true we'll know by next week.

well you brought up your a$$ not me... but the above is a LIE. A former Sec of State confirmed that the mailers were normal, regular, done many times before, and that the “outrage” was truly selective!! Repeating the CNN headline, as did the Rubio campaign to suggest to caucus goers is a perfectly valid argument for your candidate, which is what takes place in a caucus... but tRumpers don’t like it so let’s all condemn!!.... pfffft

ymmv

She is taking a selfie. The bed and the condoms would not be in the frame if that were the case. So who else was in the room taking a photo of her taking a selfie? Ted?

That's probably a large mirror. Someone who's stayed in that hotel could confirm that some of the rooms have them.

Who’s “everyone”. I always love the “everyone says” something but nobody can ever name the everyone.

Yes! Not unlike when I hear "Americans..." as if any one person speaks for ALL Americans.
