—> Why on earth did Cruz feel the need to comment on Britney Spears?
Because “politics is downstream from culture.”

The flaw of some on the political right is that we ceded the culture and we focused in only on politics.

I have had to take care of the finances of a mentally ill person who lived alone.
I could only handle it for a few years. It was a nightmare.
I don’t know who is right or wrong in Britney’s case but it isn’t an easy thing to deal with on both sides.
Had no one stepped in Britney probably would have been broke and dead. She is bad enough that she isn’t allowed around her kids very much. She has no business having another kid.
The boyfriend is rumored to have been seeking advice on how to handle large sums of money.
Whatever happens, he should not be able to touch any of it.

Come on people. She’s got talent(I think), good looks(i think), plenty of money. So what if she’s a ditz? Bring more American kids into this country. Look what we’re up against.

Wonder how Ted feels about Lindsay Lojan?

This Tweet seems to be the extent of the current conservative movement. It’s no wonder the left is running roughshod over us.

Britney seems like a fine, well balanced young woman.

Stay out of that Ted. It’s a no win situation.

We live in an era where it is practically impossible to commit the mentally ill to treatment, but this woman has been restrained by the courts so that she can’t live her own life?
My thoughts as well. This is seems equivalent to involuntary commitment.
We either have it, or we don't.
I'd bet if she were just some poor schmo like me, she'd be left to her own devices. Maybe out on the streets, maybe in jail. But there's money to be spread around here.
At the very least, she should have the choice between voluntary commitment where she can receive treatment and be evaluated impartially or remain in conservatorship. I bet I can guess what she'd choose.

He has a law degree & so it is quite understandable that he spoke up. We had dinner with another couple last night, he is a lawyer, and he said he was appalled at how she has been treated. She’s essentially a prisoner.

I would have loved President Trump to tweet “Free Britney” just to get the Democrats to demand that she remain under conservatorship or even be permanently institutionalized because Orangemanbad.

She is that, but the woman is now 39 years old. If she wants to pickle her brain with all the money she has made, she should be free to do it. Her dear old dad has her tied up so he can have a free ride off her money. That creep’s free ride should be over.

I can't believe the Freepers here that see injustice and just blow it off as politics for Ted Cruz. God bless him for equally wanting Freedom for every American. I couldn't tell you one song she sings, but I can tell Fascism when I see it.
Just because you don't like her doesn't mean she has no rights. So what I see here is people who don't like her and people that don't like Ted Cruz throwing the Constitution under the bus.
I see a circus elephant being beaten and forced to perform for her slave masters. If you just feel the need to dis a Texas Senator, why not dis on Cornyn who wants to hurt you and dis Trump?

I agree. I think there’s a lot we don’t know. Your experience sounds exhausting. And yes.....I would like to hope that her boyfriend genuinely loves her & has her best interests at heart. But we all have seen too many instances of people being used for their money.
She is a troubled and tormented woman. I hope she gets the help she needs.

Her dad was an alcoholic. I dont know at what point he became one but dealing with a metally ill person is exhausting...and that is just for a commoner. Cant imagine what it is like to deal with a celebrity.
