The totally objective and unbiased media got spanked for insulting Ted Cruz’s four and seven-year-old daughters, so they’re moving on to target his elderly dad for being, well, an elderly man.
Watch below:
CNN: Ted Cruz's dad courts controversy (Video)
Interesting how his daughters were “fair game” because Cruz used them in one parody ad, and now I’m sure they’ll say the same of his father.
Now imagine what would have happened if John McCain or Mitt Romney brought up Obama’s communist, womanizing, drunk absent father. Gosh, that wouldn’t be “fair game,” right? I mean IT’S NOT LIKE OBAMA WROTE AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY CALLED “DREAMS OF MY FATHER.”
Do you get my stinging sarcasm there? I hope you do.
I swear by the end of this election they’ll be criticizing Ted Cruz’s first girlfriend’s roommate’s dog’s fleas.
Rafael is a better man then most of congress, most of the media and all in the current administration. He is not running for office, he already holds one.
The media is targeting EVERYTHING about Ted Cruz and Donald Trump...hoping against hope that they’ll find something...anything...to stick and be effective in stopping the growth in the campaigns of the two non-GOPe candidates. The media continues to fail miserably.
I think the rules are , there are no rules. Or the rules are whatever benefits the liberals and their media henchmen.
So if the liberals and media see benefit in mocking and trashing children or parents of Republicans then its OK, because it furthers the liberal cause. In that case, previous decrees about children or parents being off limits for democrats are overruled, because the target this time is a Republican. And we know that Republicans are evil,,and as Hillary puts it, Republicans are the enemy.
Guilt by association is an effective tool of the propagandist. Advertisers use it all the time, only they call it “transfer.” The idea is you keep bringing up an association between two things, and people eventually get programmed to feel a certain way about the thing you’re try to sell (or defame). It’s an appeal to pure, unthinking emotive bias. But it can only work if the invalid association goes unchallenged. Like a cheesy magician’s slight of hand, expose it, and the illusion dissipates.

Meanwhile every time i tune into Fox they are pushing Rubio and Jeb, while bashing Trump and Cruz
The state controlled “media” is nothing but a bunch of bottom of the sewer feeding, lowlife scumbags. Americans should not allow these moronic, low I.Q. bastards to again get away with what they did to the Palin family. We need to bring the sh*t down on this scum.
The media and the left are no longer relevant and they know and show it ny whining louder. People are sick of both.
That’s what I was thinking!
Cruz’s dad is an inspiration. His story needs to be heard!
After listening to media talking heads admonishing Trump (”Bill is not the candidate”) for his threat to tear into the rape and assault record of candidate clinton’s husband, this same group attacks family members of Republicans with abandon. Remember too, back in 2007, the obam called then president Bush (who wasn’t a candidate) “unpatriotic” for the $5T debt accumulation in his watch. What would the mediots have to say if Trump or Cruz was to refer to the current president as “unpatriotic” for his nearly $10T debt accumulation?
The powers that be really don’t like a man who’s willing to stand up for what he believes if what he believes is conservative. There’s nothing more they hate than a man of his word who loves God and believes the US Constitution says what it means. To the Democrats, especially those who run the media, there’s nothing more scary.
Well the media WILL dig.
Even Ray (RIP) Charles could see that coming. Everything is fair game to criminals/totalitarians/socialist’s mouthpieces.
There is a certain relevance since Cruz parades his father out to shore up his bonafides. Drunk Cuban imigre, turned religious preacher. Fair is fair, is it true or not? What did daddy teach him, values passed along, so forth. Since Cruz opened the door, a bit late to say no. Just the same as Obama and his dear friend Rev. Wright.
I’m sick of this birther that’s tagging every Cruz thread with “ineligible”. He is whether you like it or not, whoever you are. You’ll see when he’s sworn in.
The MSM has become a shameful example of partisanship.
Many people now see through them and abhor their methods.
Trump is shining a big light of truth upon them and they shrink in shame from that light.
YUP!
The first Congress of the United States passed the Naturalization Act of 1790, a mere three years after the Constitution was written, which stated that, "...And the children of citizens of the United States, that may be born beyond sea, or out of the limits of the United States, shall be considered as natural born citizens..."
