If this is accurate, Cruz has a bunch of former junk mail con-men working for him. This is 3rd rate political sleaze. Reeks bad.

This guy is done.

I’m not a fan of Huffington, first of all, but the more I read up on Cruz, the less I think of him.

For instance:
He is in favor of cutting Senior’s Social Security

Doesn’t everyone?

Trash you.

Trash Huffington Post.

Ted who sends out mailers with “check enclosed” on the face to get folks to open it, not a problem.

Is this a major scandal? No. Is it more evidence of Ted being willing to do off color things for personal gain? Yes.

This does not contribute to a picture of Ted being a fine upstanding man.

Quite the contrary...

This is a guy that has no problem being deceitful.

I think it’s getting to the point one can’t tell Free Repuclic threads from Democrat Underground threads. This is how deranged the Trump vs. Cruz battle has become on here.

This is a common mass marketing ploy. Disguise the mail as a check, or as being from the VA etc. I see car dealers and mortgage people doing this.
My thought is that if someone’s first business contact with me is to deceive me to make me open the mail, then why would I do business with the skunk?

But though I think it’s cheesy, it isn’t a dirty trick. Voter violation mailer in Iowa, yes. This, no big deal.

LOL the only people who wouldn’t be familiar with this type of fundraising are people who have never given to a foundation in their lifetime.

Ted Cruz and the people he hires are sneaky and dishonest.

http://freedomoutpost.com/2016/01/ted-cruzs-federal-education-choice-kills-the-america-dream/

Ted Cruz’s Federal Education “Choice” Kills the American Dream

[snip]By Dangling Title I Money to ALL Parents, Sen. Ted Cruz Accelerates Federal Control Over All Private, Religious, and Homeschools, and Blankets Common Core Equitably to ALL Schools in America With His Proposed Bill, S 306.

On Oct. 26, 2015, The Blaze quoted Sen. Ted Cruz as saying, “School Choice Is Today’s ‘Civil Rights’ Issue.” But before you get excited about this, ask Sen. Ted Cruz what he means when he uses the term “choice.....If I had not read the sponsors of this bill I would think this legislation came right out of President Obama’s Equity Plan called For Each and Every Child: A STRATEGY FOR EDUCATION EQUITY AND EXCELLENCE.

OR some of the smarmy people he hires

Sen. Cruz hires some questionable people...this is the guy who pulled the Carson is quitting scam, and he’s done it before.

Jeff Roe Linked Once Again To Political Lies
http://www.yeoldejournalist.com/23653-2/

[snip]It’s true that Missourians play dirty politics, perhaps none more so than Jeff Roe, the guy behind the House of Cards ad. Known as the “Karl Rove of Missouri,” he got his start in politics in 1994, according to Mother Jones, and helmed successful campaigns for Missouri Republican Congressman Sam Graves. Opponents have described Graves’s campaign staff as “evil”; other phrases used to describe Roes’s campaigns include “intimidating” and “very, very bad.” It’s also worth noting that while Missourians are trying to figure out what to do about Roe, he’s taking his hardball talents to the big leagues. Late last year, Ted Cruz, the Republican senator who no one really likes, announced Roe would be heading up his presidential campaign.

OR some of the slimes (open border Chamber of Commmerce associatess) his pacs finance him with.

And this is how they do it....Special interest groups, pacs like pay off the talking heads of radio. This is nothing new. GW BUSH paid off several to push his policies and it came out of YOUR tax $$...like Armstrong Williams, who now works for Ben Carson.

Headline: Who’s funding this pro-Ted Cruz super PAC?
http://www.cnn.com/2016/02/06/politics/ted-cruz-super-pac/index.html

[snip] Stand for Truth, Inc., an emerging player in the orbit of often clashing constellation of pro-Cruz super PACs, recently pledged to air more than $4 million in television ads to back Cruz in Iowa and South Carolina. Super PACs can accept unlimited contributions but are required to disclose their financial backers.

Ok, the guy running this outfit is Eric Lycan, LAWYER is all wound up with the US Chamber of Commerce. I do find it MOST interesting that many of Cruz’s supporters/funders are open border, free traitors (TPP). Their filing also shows they spent $42,000 to create digital advertising for Ted Cruz, and...
.....wait for it...
..... spent $192,594.00 for “RADIO ADVERTISING”.
It makes a person wonder which radio broadcasters might have picked up some of that Pro-Ted Cruz advertising money?

Ted Cruz had my vote before he even declared. Things like this give me pause. I don’t understand why he says and does some of the things he does. Seems totally unnecessary.

Good grief.

This is an extremely common ploy for fund raising.

If that’s their best shot then they’ve got nothing.

And I’m a Trump supporter.

As a Trump supporter you sure look desperate to have to go to the huffing and puffing post for mud.

Sorry kiddies, I’ve been getting that kind of thing for years. That’s because once you give to pol parties or pol individuals you get flooded with this cr*p. Any who haven’t gotten it only label themselves as non political donors.

Lol! The pearl-clutching morons on the left are merely showing their primal fear of the only real conservative in the race that will hold their leftist feet to the fire when he gets elected. Same ole, same ole and per usual...

bullsquat.

I got one of these a couple days ago. As I predicted, when I opened it, the check was not made out to me.
