I like Ted Cruz ... but I have to admit I'm surprised Trump would pursue "lie-ing Ted" for such an important position.

That was a false accusation. Several months ago I challenged anyone to come up with an example of where Ted Cruz lied about something. Every time someone posted an example, I shot it down. Nobody came up with anything that would stand the light of scrutiny as being a lie Ted Cruz told.

Of course I got suspended for several weeks as a result of that thread, (I guess they thought it was disruptive) so I'm not sure how much leeway I have to revive that discussion. Perhaps now that Trump is president, there will not be so much objection to such a discussion.

But the "Lying Ted" thing was a deliberate political tactic to win the primary, and it really had no basis in truth.

Cruz is not a natural born citizen, consult your tag line.

I asked a number of people just what lies Ted told.....

Ted allowed Trump to brand him, a noo ie error. He’ll not let that happen again.

Yes, defending a good solid conservative Senator can get one suspended around a conservative website.

And they still can’t come up with an example. But they’ll still insist on saying it.

Remember, after the primaries, Trump called Ted Cruz a good guy.

Then why this:

Ted Cruz Apologizes to Ben Carson For Spreading Rumor He Was Dropping Out

Cruz got caught.

Underhanded backstabbing, qualifies for a LIE in anyone’s book

Want some links?

I have you beat, I can proudly say that I have been zotted twice, once for defending Ted Cruz against the defamations to which you have referred the second time, believe it or not, for defending Mark Levin who was being castigated for recommending the impeachment of Hillary Clinton!

If only I had known that Ted Cruz' father had personally assassinated John F. Kennedy and Mark Levin was a closet Rino.
