"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton
 
"We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan
 
"A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792
 
"It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams
 
"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

The more I see TPM, Slate, MSNBC, Jon Stewart and the other Stalinists squawking about this, the more obvious it is that Cruz is onto something. These people don’t all walk in lock step at the same time like this unless they’ve gotten their marching orders.

Voter suppression of the state of Texas is more like it.

[Cruz’s comments came after Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R) ordered the state guard to monitor the military’s activities after the conspiracy theorists raised concerns.]

TED CRUZ & Texas Governor Greg Abbott acted prudently to quell the fears of their constituency. Texas citizens are jumpy, especially after the latest ISIS attack.

Can someone tell me how a major military training exercise has not been coordinated and agreed to by State officials?

“When governments fear the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny. The strongest reason for the people to retain the right to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against tyranny in government.”

Are you listening, alphabet agencies and “trainees”?

Would a Federal Gubamint act against an individual state to compel it to ease up on its conservative governing policies?

It would if it had a scumdog as regime CEO.

Eternal Vigilance ain’t just noble concept.

ITs mandatory these days.

I have had a concern, with all that we have been seeing as of late, that Obama does not intend to leave office. He has stripped the military to like minded individuals, he has armed several branches of the government, and he just does not follow the law of the land. the Republican party has shown itself to not be willing to stop him at any turn. Truly, I do not believe that it likely to happen, but the real concern is that it could happen. Texas is the training ground and the area that would need to be controlled first.

Ugh, this is the first thing Ted’s done that I dislike. He shouldn’t need to pander to the conspiracy nuts. They’re probably all voting for Rand Paul anyway.

None of them, including TC, are stating the obvious. When Texicans finally get tired of of the DC kabuki show, they’ll probably go for outright independence. And then its anyone’s guess as to what happens.

Secession. It’s the 500 lb gorilla in the living room. Politicians tiptoe around it ever so quietly.
