That was ROUGH what he put his kids through. My daughter would have not been so patient or used to it. I bet he tells them daddy is so important that they have to, I wonder how much they ever see him. Or mom.

In the video she had some “valley girl” snobby facial expressions and sounds. I was NOT impressed. She came off as nasty.

“And that ain’t ‘hate’ bucko, that is FACT.”

You don’t know what your talking about, bucko.
Now that a FACT.

Get lost troll. You're a deluded Cruzer-Luzer.

Don't say you weren't warned to get professional help:

“My brother is a missionary in Haiti...but he doesn’t live there.” - Heidi Cruz. What? And look at her face when she says that lie, and then feels like she quickly needs to ‘fess up the truth. Lying is a culture in the family (just like Bill, Hil and Chelsea.)

At the 1:57 mark in the video

“My brother is a missionary in Haiti...but he doesn’t live there.” - Heidi Cruz.

What? Is he or is he now a "missionary in Haiti"? And look at her face when she says that lie, and then feels like she quickly needs to ‘fess up the truth. Lying is a culture in the family (just like Bill, Hil and Chelsea.)

"My brother is a missionary in Haiti...but he doesn't live there." - Heidi

This demonstrates IMHO how lying is a part of them but also of politicians in general and lawyers in general. It's just that we don't usually see the caveat at the end. We would get only the "My brother is a missionary in Haiti."

Makes you wonder what comes after Ted's "I have never been unfaithful to my wife", but in lawyerese.

My brother is a missionary to Haiti, depending on what the meaning of "is" is.

Aaaahh, no Heidi, if he’s not there he isn’t a missionary there.

Yikes.

Per our good FRiend GG188:

“My brother is a missionary in Haiti...but he doesn’t live there.” - Heidi Cruz.

What's next?

“Ted is America's incoming Dominionist King, but he's still looking for his throne, can you help? $5, $10, $20, whatever you can.”

I must have gotten over 100 donation letters from Ted and Heidi.

This man is a massive loser.

Notice her eyes are closed when she says "he doesn't live there", which gives the lie to what she just said.

I wonder if that has any meaning to body language experts? She thought about her lie for a second, decided she should qualify it with the truth, and did so but her eyes were closed. Maybe just a normal facial expression for her, I don't know. I do know they told her to exalt and build up her family---but in the end she just couldn't go THAT far.

Finally, I’ll say this. Can you imagine if Melania, in her Barbara Walters interview, for example, had lied and said her brother was a missionary somewhere. It would be bigger than the Natl Equirer, the Iowa Steal, and every other Cruz scandal and lie combined. The mainstream media would be all over it. Anderson Cooper would do a special, “Do we want a First Lady who LIES?”

I know what you mean.

That would seem some sort of a tell. As you say, perhaps it’s not.

The statement itself was just strange.

I work at X restaurant, but I’ve never been in the place.

Here's what's wild. The TRUTH about her brother is better than this fiction she told. He is a doctor, head of pediatric orthopedic surgery at a hospital! (He has gone on missions, Haiti after an earthquake, to perform surgeries, which is itself heroic and admirable.)

So why put a SPIN on it, "My brother is a missionary in Haiti." Reminds me of something Bill Clinton would do. The TRUTH would be as good and maybe better than the lie, but instinctively---or perhaps she was coached---Heidi embellished the story and no kidding, this is a case of what the meaning of "is" is. She's an MBA but sure talks like a J.D.

Pure and simple, it was SPIN. Doctors are greedy and rich; missionaries are good and caring. I think that was the reason for the spin whether is was instinctive on Heidi's part, or calculated. That sounds like what liberals do---put a PC twist on reality to make it more palpable to their PC friends.

I don’t have a problem with physicians.

As you say, the embellishment wasn’t necessary.

As you also stated, the truth was even better.

I’ve never understood people who do that.
