If I were to mirror the example of the delusional right-wing folks who have spent seven years creating apocalyptic fantasies about how Barack Obama is a communistic, Muslim Antichrist, I could probably manufacture some scary characterizations of the first announced candidate for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination, Ted Cruz but I wont. Instead, I want to compare him favorably to his ideological soul mate, Sarah Palin, which may be even more scary..
Both the Texas senator and the former Alaska governor oppose abortion and same-sex marriage. They both want a smaller federal government and a more confrontational foreign policy. They want to repeal Obamacare and seal up the borders. Both are darlings of the tea party. Neither believes climate change is real. When they are in front of evangelical Christian crowds, they talk freely about salvation and prayer warriors. Both are so ambitious that they barely warmed the seats in their first major elected offices before jumping into campaigns at the highest level of national politics.
On just about everything, Cruz and Palin are on the same page. The difference is that the page Cruz reads from is in a law book, while Palins is in People magazine.
Palin is pretty much the embodiment of scatterbrained. Her off-the-cuff speeches are hilarious, nonsensical contortions of the English language. Her occasional stints as a pundit on Fox News are so daffy that even the sympathetic conservative hosts seem baffled by her blather. She is an attractive celebrity who is a good fit for a TV reality show, not for any position that would allow her to get her manicured fingers on the nuclear codes....

And Obama is Kim Jung-Il with a low IQ.
Speaking of “barely warmed the seats, just how long was obama a senator before he ran for president?
Their fear and panic is starting to show big time.
actually, today’s news from Obama/Kerry letting the IslamoNazi Iranians have nuclear bombs and ICBMs...
now THAT’s scary!
Wasn't it said by someone in the White Hut that MSNBC was what they kept on the TV there? or at least their favorite channel for "news".
Cruz is a direct benefit from Governor Palin’s war since 2008.
Cruz would say as much.
I would not be in the U.S. Senate today if it were not for Governor Palin, Cruz said.
Governor Palin has been reshaping the GOP since 2008, and conservatives have been cleaning up in elections ever since, even in the dismal year of 2012, Cruz won, and Palin gave the GOP it’s only Senate seat pick-up in Nebraska, and in 2014 she won 22 of her 24 endorsed races.
Sarah was correct about everything...its obvious the left really are the regressive knuckle dragging idiots.
I always thought this clown was just a whackjob cartoonist.
From what I saw when I lived there, the LAT is an affirmative action hotbed.
Has anyone at the LA Times accomplished 1/100 of what Sarah Palin has? Oh, and LA Times, will you please release the Khalidi Tape?
Ah, a dinosaur failing publication doing it’s best to insult two conservatives in one sentence, make hay while you can, you won’t have a job much longer with advertising revenue dropping, that pesky Bankruptcy thing and an increase to fifty cents a birdcage liner, there are a lot less birdcages nowadays. But hey, you could move into the highly fluid and rewarding career of panhandling with skills you may already posses!
They all say the same thing and it’s a predictable screeching they always do. Who wants to pay for that? They have to be subsidized like NPR.
Of course, Barack Obama "barely warmed his seat before jumping into campaigns at the highest level of national politics", but THAT'S "different", mostly because David Horsey has a man-crush on Obama, and would service him sexually if only Barack would axe.
NAMBOLA (North American Media-Barack Obama Love Association).
NAMBOLA - the love that dares not speak its name.
motto - "We're not as bad as NAMBLA, as far as YOU know!"
What Cruz Derangement Syndrome looks like:
He couldn't be Antichrist...Antichrist has a work ethic.
And Barry Soetoro watches ESPN in place of going to Cabinet meetings, and daily intelligence briefings...
Is the LA Slimes EVER going to release that Rashid Khalidi tape, seriously Ive been waiting for SIX YEARS NOW..Im growing impatient
Doesn’t matter how long Obama was a senator, he’s black, you know.
Reading between the lines, young David Horsey appears to disapprove of Cruz & Palin because they don't seem to want to sexually service Obama, like David and all his media buds do.
If ONLY the hunky Prog-God Obama would axe David! **dreamy sigh**
And Barack Obama is Kim Jong Un without the brains.
