... Here’s How He Turned the Tables on His Haters
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) was forced to stop speaking multiple times while delivering a speech at the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C., Friday morning. Rather than cowering, he repeatedly shot back at his hecklers and accused them of being ”President Obama’s paid political operatives.”
Cruz was first interrupted by a man in the audience who demanded to know why he wouldn’t “support a pathway to citizenship for immigrant families.” Later in the speech, the disruptions became more pointed, leading Cruz to more fervently address the outbursts.
Based on muffled video footage it was unclear what exactly most of the hecklers were saying, but summit attendees began overpowering the hecklers with shouts of “USA! USA! USA!”

Cruz was not amused by the interruptions.
“They definitely don’t want the truth to be heard,” he said of the opposition.
Despite his disagreement with their tactics, he thanked the boisterous hecklers for their passion, but asked them to “respect the rights of the men and women who are here.”
Cruz also told his supportive audience members that liberals are clearly afraid.
“The left will always, always, always tell you who they fear. And they fear you,” he said. “They fear the American people.”
The heckler who interrupted Cruz to ask about immigration did so as the senator was warning that the nation is on the brink of going “off the cliff to oblivion.” His shout-out was captured by cameras.
“Senator Cruz, why won’t you support a pathway to citizenship for immigrant families?” the man asked.
Cruz didn’t answer, except to say he respects the individual’s right to free speech. Watch at the 6:00 mark:
“By this rule of thumb, Sen Cruz must have them sh!tting bricks.”
Cruz is starting to live rent free in their heads, as did Palin.
Sen Cruz put on a clinic on how to deal with leftist rabble and turn it to ones advantage.
“Cruz is starting to live rent free in their heads, as did Palin.”
And worse for them, Cruz has been granted power by the people. He’s within the gates!!
They get $10/hr and a free lunch —
“Senator Cruz, why won’t you support a pathway to citizenship for immigrant families?” the man asked.
That’s such an easy question to answer, he should have said ;
‘I support a pathway to citizenship for all immigrants and their families that enter our country legally and follow the well established procedures for naturalization. Those who enter this country illegally should be prosecuted and deported.’
In the second vid, @2;50, Cruz: “VP Joe Biden (audience laughs)you know the nice thing, you don’t even need a punch line” LOL, and they said Dan Quayle was stoopid?
The Cyber-Warriors for Obama are only getting minimum wage, but that’s from leftover money from the reelection campaign coffers.
But that doesn’t seem to bother the flying monkeys. It’s a recognized Rule For Radicals that they’re doing something they enjoy.
Because, like, maybe, there already is one? Set up many years ago for legal immigration!!
Ted Cruz Ping!
If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.
Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!
The Democrats are employing the rent-a-mobs again. They’re going to be working OT as we get closer to the elections next year.
Heckler should have his a$$ beat
Which “conservatives” arranged for these illegal alien invaders to crash this event? Find out and get some rope!
It just doesn't include sneaking across the border!
These already is a pathway to citizenship for immigrant families (although it needs to be streamlined). What we oppose is a pathway to citizenship for crminal invaders.
The left in this country is nothing but a bunch of hypocrites claiming to be for minorities. As a conservative Hispanic American, like Cruz, this is a bunch of BS. They can throw racism out there for Obama for disagreeing with him but look how vile they are with a minority that does not agree with them. All that caring for minorities, tolerance and PC goes out the window.
They don’t care for minorities, they only care about their own power and deception, towards their goals of control over you and I. I really despise the left in this country and all the lies and damage they have done to this great nation.
This is why whenever one of these losers call me a racist, my reply, “I know you are but what am I?”. It’s a simplistic, childish response, but it gets under their thin skin like nothing else. Show me a liberal, and I’ll show you a bigot.
Were they Obama’s political operatives or McCain’s? Hard to say.
