Washington (CNN) Ted Cruz turned the other cheek Saturday when he responded to a Twitter attack from Cher.

The legendary American singer and actress compared Cruz to Judas Iscariot, writing to her almost 3 million Twitter followers, "As Judas Was 2 Jesus,So IsTed Cruz 2America.Read What He's Written&Watched What He's Said,4 Yrs.He ALWAYS TERRIFIED ME??#30piecesofsilver"

As Judas Was 2 Jesus,So Is Ted Cruz 2America.Read What He's Written&Watched What He's Said,4 Yrs.He ALWAYS TERRIFIED ME??#30piecesofsilver— Cher (@cher) December 11, 2015

Her use of the hashtag #30piecesofsilver references the price that Judas was paid to betray Jesus in the New Testament of the Bible.

Cruz responded to Cher on Saturday, writing, "Cher, thanks for the kind sentiments. And I wish you a Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year."

Of course I would not agree with Cruz is like Judas but in what way was Cher making this remark? I have never heard Cruz say anything remotely hypocritical or traitorous, which is what you would see Judas as.

Speaking of traitorous and hypocritical this hashtag for 30 pieces of silver could go to other more logical choices we have in the arena these days.

One other in particular.

Well, the good news is, unlike most (R) who are referred to as stupid, this one is of the evil variety.
Har! You'll get a chuckle reading this quote from Ted Cruz:
Ted Cruz: "I do think in the media there is a tendency to describe conservatives as one of two things: stupid or evil. And those are the two categories that every conservative gets put in by Democrats and the media. A conservative is either stupid - too dumb to know the right answer - and even worse, if they actually know the right answer, then they're evil. They want people to suffer. I suppose I feel mildly complimented in that they have recently invented a third category, which is crazy. It's the alternative to stupid or evil. And now crazy is the third one, because it seems inconceivable that there could be Americans who believe in free-market principles and believe in the Constitution and are working to defend them."

Why Ted Cruz Thinks the Media Gets Conservatism Wrong

That’s a hell of a lot funnier than what Cruz posted.

She shipped her son off to boarding school when he was 8 and never raised him.

When told that her lesbian friend had been molesting her little girl Chasity, she didn’t do a thing about it.

I don’t care what else she ever accomplished in life, the abusive neglect of her own children marks her as a totally worthless individual.

She probably doesn’t even believe in Jesus. And her posting would make a middle-schooler ashamed. What a rude, dopey woman.

It’s so appropriate that such a huge twit would be on twitter. One has to believe that if Sonny had more time and input with his daughter she wouldn’t have ended so screwed up. But sadly for her, her whoring, drinking, drug using freak of a mother had the influence. And people still believe Cher was the smart one.

Cher must get up every morning, look in the mirror, and ask herself, “What would Judas do?”

At $14 per ounce, 30 pieces of silver would run $420. Perhaps Cruz supporters who have not donated should make that contribution and let Cher know we have now given in honor of her absurd comparison.
