He and Palin have something wonderful in store for America and it will definitely NOT be of satan.
Firstly, Ted Cruz’ narrative is NOT ‘demagoguery.’
His words echo the most fundamental tenets of the ideas, principles and values upon which this country was founded and affirmed in the US Constitution.
It makes no difference how or why they try to discredit and demean him. He has something all their lackeys, sycophants, crooks and ghouls couldn’t buy with an ocean full of money - ideological support of millions and millions of us out here in real America whose ideals CANNOT be bought with entitlements.
They shall see just how strong that support is in 2014 and in 2016.
This author clearly recognizes and fears the depth, breadth, and appeal Ted Cruz brings to the scene.
This is why he strives to mischaracterize and dismiss Ted.
I see Ted Cruz as a new wave Republican/Conservative Crusader.
The media currently is loath to credit Ted Cruz as RIGHT in early October. Just crickets on this issue. He’s still the “radical” who tried to protect millions of people about to be screwed by a nefarious law. In fact, he gave the Rats a lifeline that they swatted away.
That the political class hates and fears him is a very, very good thing.
I finally caught video of Ted’s appearance on Leno and he was just terrific. Leno got increasing frustrated that his pre-scripted cross examination questions didn’t phase Cruz in the slightest. Cruz is the real deal - that’s why they are trying so hard to destroy him.
Ted Cruz Ping!
If you want on/off this ping list, please let me know.
Please beware, this is a high-volume ping list!
Cruz on Fox and Friends in a minute or two!
‘But I ask anyway, and I try to be tricky about it. Several prominent outlets, including National Review, had reported that Cruz—in the most preliminary terms—had discussed a presidential bid. Did they need to issue a correction?
He doesn’t bite. “I cannot help what the media chooses to report. What I can tell you is that my focus is 100 percent on the U.S. Senate,” he says. “And I take very seriously my obligation to 26 million Texans, to come to work every day, and to stand up, and fight for them.”
That’s all well and good, senator. But come 2016, the other 288 million Americans just might decide they need you, too.’
One can only hope!
Joe McCarthy or Father Coughlin? These people are so desperate to find a template for Ted Cruz they will grasp as the most slender of straws to try to portray him.
Ted Cruz is a genus unto himself, nearly unique in the contemporary scene, in ANY field. Articulate, with an air of charisma, and with a moral compass that shows a true bearing on logic and truth. Stretching back into American history, we must look to Thomas Paine or a foreigner looking upon the American scene, Alexis de Tocqueville.
Paine and Tocqueville were both critical of the old regimes with which they came of age, at a time in history when criticism was backed up with force of arms. The reign of King George of England and Louis XVI of France were both marked with a singular resistance to listening to the popular voice of the subjects, and resulted in almost simultaneous revolutions.
The American Revolution led to the establishment of a representative republic, the French Revolution was mainly concerned with decapitation of the royal family, but with no clear idea how to govern once they had overthrown the royal rule. That vacuum was finally filled by a strong military expedition by Napoleon Bonaparte into Paris that established as him the Emperor, and led to a series of some of the most brutal incursions into surrounding countries since the time of the Roman Empire.
And of course, the first Bonaparte clearly overreached, and this led to the Bourbon restoration, which was itself an overreaction. Until the French Republic was finally settled upon, it was a dangerous thing to live in France, as the authoritarian rule alternated with periods of chaos, until the last of the Bonaparte family was finally driven into exile.
Ted Cruz is ready for the country but is the country ready for Ted Cruz?
This is a snarky article from a publication that I thought was on our side. Near the end, the author says, “Cruz now leads the field of potential contenders for the Republican presidential nomination, up eight percentage points since July, according to Public Policy Polling.”
It’s kind of significant that Cruz is the leading contender for the Republican nomination for President. It would be nice if publications that pretend to be on our side were somewhat respectful toward our leader.
That was very well written article...thanks.
