So instead of a conspiracy theory about the president not being a U.S. citizen and thus barred from office by the Constitution we have a openly Canadian born person of legal Canadian citizenship running for the office.

No doubt about it, the constitution is toilet paper.

Progressives think that simple Voter ID laws present an unconstitutional burden on citizens, but they are always defending a highly-complex tax code, many provisions of which are only decipherable by accountants and tax experts, and which we must comply with under threat of fine or imprisonment. Weird.

“...Internal Revenue Service, sealing the border, or “repealing every word of Obamacare.”

Words to make me happy, you all have a Ted Cruz great Day.

Didn't see the unicorns but here is a nice diversion...

When Democrats use words like “imagine,” the press goes along and tells us how inspiring the message is. But when a Republican uses that word, it becomes an occasion for mockery. The press is largely comprised of bullies.

No data supports Mr. Cruz’s claim that health-insurance premiums are “skyrocketing” under Obamacare.

I guess no one on the editorial board has had to purchase insurance.

“I don’t know how Richard Nixon could have won. I don’t know anybody who voted for him.”
- The late film critic Pauline Kael’s reaction to Richard Nixon’s landslide victory over George McGovern.

The NYTimes viewpoint.

That is utter B/S. Hubby runs a small Company. Less than 10 employees.
Insurance went up 450.00 per month per plan, Family plans.

No data supports Mr. Cruz’s claim that health-insurance premiums are “skyrocketing” under Obamacare.

How do they spew such utter lies and not instantly burst into flames is just evidence of God's patience.

So, your insurance premiums went up $54,000/yr. more for 10 employees.

Don’t know what the split is, but it looks like you are going to have an 8 person firm soon.

“Mine only went up 3% this year.” my son’s went up over 28 percent. daughter’s went up over 15 percent.

I stand with Ted

[ziravan]

Go blow.

“Mine only went up 3% this year.” my son’s went up over 28 percent. daughter’s went up over 15 percent.

Ouch. I'm lucky and the health plan is the one good benefit my company has, and I guess they didn't want to hit that too hard. This year.

"But weird is the essence of Mr. Cruz

Like the Nazis calling the Jews "weird" for fighting back in the Warsaw Uprising.

All I can say is thank you Texas for Sen. (President) Cruz.

[nascarnation]

I thought it was: thank you Alberta?

I think that he is thinking of getting out, between that and the Unions, we may just retire.
