I too, did not like my first roommate in boarding school, but I would never speak ill of her in public much less do something so childish as launch a storm of tweets.

*********************************

Totally agree. I am a Trump guy but the roommate has no credibility and certainly no class.

My guess: Mazin was (is) a $poiled proggy pajama boy that got stuck with an intelligent, intellectual, logical, hard-working lover of America. Had to annoy the crap out of Mazin.

The guy sounds mental. A prerequisite for Hollywood.

I had some interesting roommate scenarios in my days at Moody Bible Institute. One fellow talked to himself, to bizarre extremes. He was eventually kicked out. Another guy was a super clean freak who was clearly upset with my imperfections. Then there was the Latin lover.

But I can easily picture Ted being disliked, in an extreme way, by a Princeton lib roommate. Ted was and remains a committed Christian. I have extended family members who didn’t accept me for years, just because I was a Baptist who followed Scripture. They didn’t like that I would take seriously anything taught by that sexist the Apostle Paul. Again, their liberalism altered their perception of me.

And here’s another clue. Ted’s former roommate had this hash tag game for captioning a picture, and proposed something like “death penalty,” as if that, by it self, was derogatory, as if it made his case. So he thinks Ted is a jerk because he believes in the death penalty. There’s a lot of people on this forum, maybe most people on this forum, who’d be getting the same treatment if he had been their former roommate. Hardly a rational basis for picking one candidate over another.

Peace,

SR

Silly hissy fit by a jealous former associate of Ted Cruz. Cruz is a great man and who is this guy to call him names. Geez...people knew him when he was 19 years old and didn’t like him. Who cares?

That’s the danger of attending an Ivy League school.

Twitter went offline in Europe for a while yesterday. One article had a quote from a user, “I actually had to deal with my own thoughts alone for over an hour”.

Well it is no secret that in progressive liberal elitist schools conservatives are lower than dirt especially those conservatives who also have strong Christian values, yet Cruz came out of the lions den a stronger Christian and a stronger constitutional conservative quite a feat I’d say. And it prepared him to fight in the belly of beast that is congress and that fight has prepared for POTUS.

I guess the takeaway from this is that we know Cruz went to college and we have proof from a roommate he was there. He’s not even president yet. More proof in two days than the last 8 years of the current Whitehouse occupant.

And WTF is a Tres-Goins-Phillips?

An chronic pain, usually in the gluteus maximus. Often accompanied by a headache and fatigue.

Why in hell would any serious college student want to be in a fraternity or sorority? Total waste of time and money.

Well I've read enough.

Yup. His antipathy is almost better than any endorsement.

"I actually had to deal with my own thoughts alone for over an hour."

With nine children at home, I never have to do that. Sometimes I do it anyway, just for practice, but I'm never short of the opportunity to share!

This is cheap. Donald is my guy, but Ted is deserving of great respect and admiration.

Ditto. It's a cheap shot by a liberal loser.
