Media personality Glenn Beck administered a mock presidential "oath of office" to Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) as he endorsed him on stageâand Cruz got the oath wrong when he took it.
"What is the oath of office that you have to take?" Beck asked Cruz after the Texas Senator joined him on stage after Beck's more-than-half-hour-long speech endorsing Cruz.
"What-what?" Cruz replied.
"Dear God, if you don't know this, everything else-" Beck joked. "When you raise your right hand, what are you going to say?"
"I pledge to honor and defend the Constitution of the United States of America," Cruz replied.
Technically speaking, that's not the oath of office for the president of the United States.

And to top it off it was at Waterloo
Yeah Trump's "conservative" communications are that we should have passed single payer health care instead of Obama care. He promises to repeal and REPLACE Obama care, just like Romney. REPLACE it with what? Single payer health care.
HE wants to control the Tea Party. The guy is a trojan horse.
Someone better put a watch on Isara, Libbylu, TBBT and the rest of the rabid TDS sufferers so they are prepared for a TwitterStorm from Trump that will make the snowstorm look mild by comparison!
Nobody’s more fun to ridicule than that idiot Beck, and tonight he out-idioted himself!
You are a mistress of understatement.

Cruz looks mesmerized.
Beck already fantasizing about jumping up and down on the bed in the Lincoln bedroom.
Surprised no one has noted Beck being Canadian himself.
Trump wants to remove the restrictions on selling across state lines, allow for cheaper premiums. Trump said that this won’t help everyone, and for those that it doesn’t will still need healthcare.
Good God, they’re all nuts. Trump, Cruz, Beck, all of em. Rush sounds weird lately and Levin seems sane but who can say..he might go soon too..
Maybe I’ll just vote for Rand or Huckster. Anyone but these guys. Geesh, what a bunch.
My grandfather used to say, “don’t vote, it just encourages them”...maybe he was on to something.
I like trump and Cruz. That being said, Trump has said repeatedly that he favors free market solutions to healthcare. He will repeal and replace Obamacare should he win the presidency.
TBBT got his account suspended/banned by Jim earlier.
Beck left Cruz hanging on the hand shake... what the?
And why does Cruz stand there slump shouldered with his hands in his pockets!?
That does not look very leader like at all.
TBBT rode the lightining this afternoon.
Beck thinks he’s going to be Cruz’s presidential press secretary.
Sadly pretending to be sworn into office as this happened will be remembered as ridiculous as we found Obama’s “Office of President Elect” sign. Even as a joke this is more pompous than Trump.
Ted Cruz with malice toward none? “Liar” McConnell might disagree with that. LOL.
Too late now.
In a way, I felt kinda sorry for him. This makes him look like Beck and his minions are controlling him. He probably knew how it looked. He was demeaned by Beck and those preachy guys on that stage.
Is this in a church? I think the podium has a cross on it.
