Cruz couldn't resist a dig on Trump
Vanity | Vanity

Posted on 02/20/2016 6:50:17 PM PST by FormerRep

Ted Cruz couldn't resist an attack by name on Trump in his speech. Trump gave him and Rubio gracious congratulations for their campaigns. Rubio took high ground and was collegial to Trump and Jeb.

Cruz sure does attack a lot for a guy that says I won't attack my competition....

I heard him congratulate Trump and say that Trump has attacked him non-stop. Which is true. I didn't hear any attack on Trump.

Same here. Poster is making things up.

Sorry - I’ve been here a very long time and maybe post a vanity once a decade - I considered a live broadcast of a speech of great importance in this election as breaking news/activism.

I’ve never owned a TV, didn’t have one when we grew up either.

Donald Trump is no more liberal that Ronald Reagan.

People hold up Ronald Reagan as the ultimate conservative.
There is no such thing. Everyone makes compromises.

Ronald Reagan/s liberal actions:

In 1950 Reagan helped raise money
for democrat Helen Gahagan Douglas
against Richard Nixon for California senator.

In 1966, Reagan put together a campaign group
to run for California governor. They were
Phil Battaglia, Casper Weinberger and Jack Warner.
They were all from the liberal Rockefeller wing of
the Republican party, not the conservative Goldwater wing.

Reagan Gets Bill Easing Abortion In California - Jun 14, 1967

June 14, 1967 The California Assembly passed and sent to Governor Reagan a bill easing the state/s abortion law, unchanged in 95 years.
Reagan said the bill was /by no means perfect/ and would have to be watched closely to prevent California from becoming an abortion haven.
But he said he would sign it despite his doubts about some possible /loopholes./ /I am fully sympathetic with attempts to liberalize the outdated abortion law now on the law books of California,/ the freshman governor said....
The bill...would permit abortions before the 20th week of pregnancy if:

-The prospective mother/s physical or mental health is in danger.

-The pregnancy resulted from incest or forcible rape, or statutory rape in the case of a girl 14 years old or younger.

The old law permits abortions only if the life of the prospective mother is endangered.

Reagan Gets Bill Easing Abortion In California - The Norwalk Hour - Jun 14, 1967
https://news.google.com/newspapers?id=yAlJAAAAIBAJ&sjid=dAUNAAAAIBAJ&pg=5620%2C3433380

1970 Governor Reagan, who once said /taxes should hurt/,
disclosed he paid no state income taxes in 1970 on his
$44,000 governor/s salary and personal assets of around $1-million.
The average worker made around $5,000 per year back then.

1970 as governor, Reagan appointed Donald Wright as the
Chief Justice of the California Supreme Court. Wright/s
court later found the death penalty unconstitutional in California.

1972 Reagan supported the re-election of President Richard Nixon instead of giving support to conservative Republican candidate John Ashbrook, who ran an effort to dump Nixon.

As California Governor, Reagan used his own office funds to keep the Office of Economic Opportunity alive in the state and he tried to make California the first state to create its own consumer affairs dept.

1976 in his presidential run against Gerald Ford, Reagan chose the most liberal Republican Senator in the senate, Richard Schweiker as his vice presidential running mate. In 1980, he chose another liberal running mate
George HW Bush.

1985 Reagan, as president, spent $5-billion to bail out the Continental Bank of Illinois. He also added
$9-billion to the International Monetary Fund so Mexico, Brazil and Argentina could pay the interest on
their big debts to the American banks. At the same time, he would not bail out American farmers.

Reagan/s 4th year budget was $141-billion more than Carter/s 4th year budget. Reagan/s total deficits for 4 years was 4-times the total of Carter 4-year total deficits.

Reagan increased the national debt in 4-years as much as all the presidents from Hoover to Carter did.

Reagan Supported the Brady Gun Bill in a speech at George Washington University in 1991.

In 1992 Reagan supported NAFTA (North American Free Trade Act) As a candidate in 1979 Reagan first talked about a North American accord. In 1992 Reagan made a plea in a Wall Street Journal editorial to, /tear down the trade wall/.

There you go again .. lying about Cruz. I saw a report on TV which clearly stated that Ted had won a very huge county in SC.

When are you going to learn that we can find out you’re lying ..?? It’s time to stop the game .. you’re definitely not winning.

The word is disgusting (not discussing) - and that's the word for Trump.

I know you guys are upset about losing. But that is no excuse for being an ass. You people post the most disgusting and insulting crap on every thread and the act all offended anytime some post the least bit negative thing about cruz. So see how you feel about this: Eat Crap you POS! No go cry to a moderator because I could care less.

Same here. Cruz lies too easily. I don’t even want him for Trump’s VP anymore. In his speech tonight, he sounded bitter, entitled, and uninspiring. I agree with those here who say if he can’t get higher than third-place in a 73% evangelical state like South Carolina, it’s over for him.

"Well, then, you weren’t listening. ;-)"

Probably not. My ear drums tend to close off when the name Trump is mentioned. ;-)

Why on earth would any self respecting Judeo-Christian not want to see blood coming out of the political jugular of a man who says he does not need God’s forgiveness because he is so inherently good? I don’t want a president who is going to bring down God’s wrath on my nation. No thank you!

Actions have consequences. Especially lying over and over and over.

We won. You Cruzer lost.

Oh by the way, If Gov. Palin would have ran I think we would be seeing the same thing Trump is doing. (energy).

No hard feeling. :)

Fine speech, enjoyed it.

He is definitely cooking with gas.

In the general, dare I say it, I want to see him "go hot" on mz Clinton, the media, and the two sides of the same coin in DC! ,

Cruz won ZERO counties in SC.

And you have the gall to make it personal and call me a liar.

Very pathetic.
