Cruz: ‘Nothing President Obama said’ will help destroy the Islamic State

Washington Post ^ | December 6, 2015 | Katie Zezima

[TigerClaws]

Was Obama really in the Oval Office? Was some odd podium green screen looking thing. Never seen a president use a podium in the Oval Office.

He might have done the green screen to avoid having to miss the Kennedy Center party.

[AndyJackson]

I love that Sen. Cruz said he will direct the DOD to DESTROY ISIS - that is the only way.

While this is not wishy washy like Obama's obfuscating and changing the subject, an order to go win a war is not actually a strategy either.

All that speech did was increase C02 methane levels around DC.

There, fixed it for ya. It was all verbal flatulence.

[TBP]

It’s not intended to, Ted.

[garjog]

Cruz should be president. He would be a 180 degree correction.

[SunkenCiv]

Jeb trails -- but that there are 38% who think he's ready shows you how the POTUS job has been dumbed down under Obama and his regime.

[eyedigress]

I watched it Viking. He thinks that he can create a no fly list with the FBI and transfer that to the 2nd Amendment.

Watch this bitch roll. He hates our Nation and our FReedom!

[Aria]

Please tell me what Cruz has done besides talk?

[garjog]

“He doesn’t actually want to destroy ISIS “

Seems like he is working for ISIS.

He wants to disarm Americans right when Jihad hits the homeland again.

He wants to import sleeper cells to shore up the Jihadi fighters already embedded inside the country.

He eviscerates the military and does everything possible to destroy moral among the public.

[garjog]

“As I am hearing clips of Obama’s speech”

As for me I couldn’t bring myself to listen to the man. Literally makes me ill.

[Sun]

When Cruz said he will direct the DOD to DESTROY ISIS, it shows his PASSION and COMMITMENT, and that’s why I love it.

Don’t worry, Ted Cruz will do it the right way. He is pro-Constitution and understands the Constitution.

Ted Cruz was a Constitutional lawyer, who graduated magna cum laud, and clerked for Justice Rehnquist.

[Viking2002]

That tick turd can come try to take mine away. Mine, and those of a standing army of about a hundred million of my closest friends.

[eyedigress]

I’m on your side. My world is coming back.

The liberal left can go to hell.

[Jukeman]

He is committing treason and has been since he came into office.

[Aria]

I dont know what hes doing here - if he were smart (and he IS) hed be advocating for a revised TPA that preserves the filibuster.(I removed aphostephroies)

“What Cruz is doing is running for POTUS. Obviously the big donors have told him TPP is the price of their support. Cruz doesn�€™t want his fingerprints on it so he supports TPA which lowers the vote required to 50 for passage.”

HEIDI S. CRUZ is an energy investment banker with Merrill Lynch in Houston, Texas. She served in the Bush White House under Dr. Condoleezza Rice as the Economic Director for the Western Hemisphere at the National Security Council, as the Director of the Latin America Office at the U.S. Treasury Department, and as Special Assistant to Ambassador Robert B. Zoellick, U.S. Trade Representative. Prior to government service, Ms. Cruz was an investment banker with J.P. Morgan in New York City.

Wow, she certainly sounds like an outsider to me.....Not!

Heidi Cruz is an energy banker. She has NSC, Treasury and Trade experience. Useful background for a first lady. Her husband is a United States Senator.

Community Organizer President Mugabe is destroying our energy industry, Stalin style. Which is better?

Would you rather Cruz be married to an overweight butch foodie communist who wants to destroy education and advance abortions?

The heart of the matter is to get new leaders who will oppose islamists. History says: failure to do so destroys nations and countless lives and livelihoods, not to mention all liberty.

Cruz favors Family, Freedom, and Life. I support that. I met him in person. I asked about his lead opponent, Hillary. He said: “She is the center of all the corruption in Washington.” That is all I need to hear. What’s not to like?

[Aria]

Who is funding Cruz - where is the big money coming from?

I’m not saying he’s a bad guy but I have my reservations...and for reasons.

[DoughtyOne]

While I agree with that, it sure doesn’t make him sound like a leader. It makes him sound like a follower.

[FreeReign]

With all due respect Mr.Cruz I sure as hell didn’t need you, or anyone else, to tell me that.

Sure. Shame on Cruz for speaking up. He should be quite.
