If Donald Trump is your drunk uncle at Thanksgiving then Ted Cruz is the charming sociopath your sister brings to Christmas. During a speech at the Rising Tide Summit in Iowa, the freshman senator from Texas whipped the crowd into a frenzy by suggesting President Barack Obama wasn't doing enough to defeat radical Islam.
Cruz thinks he can do better. "We will utterly destroy ISIS," he said. "We will carpet bomb them into oblivion. I don't know if sand can glow in the dark, but we're going to find out."
That's right, Ted Cruz just promised to nuke the Middle East if elected.

Ted Cruz
Why is he getting a pass on this? Carpet bombing doesn't make sand glow in the dark. he stood on a stage and threatened to use nuclear weapons in the middle east and now he has the nerve to question Donald Trump's temperament?
Cruz is a maniac and shouldn't have his fingers anywhere near the button.
Why are you opposed to defeating ISIS?
Yeah, dropping a nuke in the middle east would be a darn shame.
What's your plan to deal with ISIS, Whoopi? Appoint Bergdahl as Secretary of State?
lol
which country are we going to detonate a nuclear weapon in then? I’m sure you have suggestions. let’s hear them.
For the record, sand can glow in the dark without the use of nukes. So, the lawyer Cruz has an out . . . nonetheless, please let the whining continue.
Why is he getting a pass? Because nuking the Middle East and sending those Islamofascists back to the stone age is actually a great idea.
Hopefully Iran. At least before they do it to us.
I support nuking the muzzles, too. Starting with the saudies who we should have taken out on 9/12.
Don’t we all? /rhetorical
Fear not, the Middle East will nuke itself, soon enough.
BS.
yeah. They killed one of my firemen friends with lung cancer and the other one has lung problems. And Bush went to Iraq. He made a wrong turn.
at least Saudi Arabia treats women well and respects Christians and Jews.
do I really have to?
Destroying ISIS is a good idea. Trump agrees ( http://www.businessinsider.com/donald-trump-bomb-isis-2015-11). So should you.
Unless you’re an ISIS sympathizer.
You’ll have to elaborate there, FRiend, if you expect another reply. For the record, I have seen sand glow on too many occasions to count (but I’m a fan of bonfires on the beach).
Lol.....!
Your messiah is in favor of nuking the Middle East:

So maybe you should shut up and sit in a corner for a while.
So has Trump, hypocrite.
I have no problem with Cruz’s message. Why do you.
We’ve been fooled by Trumps over the top message, a man who was never a conservative, then we get upset when a conservative tries to get tough.
Time to Wake Up!
