Thanks for the ping. What an amazing thread. I’ve read up to post 150, and have yet to identify one negative comment from any of the better known Cruz supporters. Rather, every single one is defending the Cruz/Bush liaison.

Honestly, it looks like a religion now. If not even one prominent Cruz supporter has the slightest reservation about their candidate teaming with the Bushes, what else would you call it? Iow, joining hands with the Bushes now = consistent conservatism.

These Cruz supporters love to accuse Trump supporters of worshipping our candidate. I’ve long believed that was projection. Today proved it.

Would it be that Ted Cruz started his career with Cooper & Carvin, a law firm for which catapulted him and his boss into the Bush Administration?
Would it be his role in the Bush Gore Recount?
Would it be his Appointment to the Transition Team?
Would it be Ted Cruz’ Appointment to Department of Justice Coordinator?
Would it be Ted Cruz’ Appointment to the Department of Justice by Bush?
Would it be Ted Cruz’ Appointment Director, Office of Policy Planning?
Would it be Ted Cruz’s appointment to Solicitor General of Texas made by Greg Abbott, originally a Bush appointee to the Texas Supreme Ct?

Goodness! You certainly are making WAY TOO MUCH of Ted Cruz’ undisputed facts that lie in his resume. Who are you to connect those dots?


*Gasp!*

You are despicable!
I done seen The Anointed in a plaid shirt.
I done seen The Anointed in blue jeans.
I done seen The Anointed say grace four times over in one sitting, such is his piety.
I done seen The Anointed swore in as President by that great man of faith, Beck the Knife.
I done heard The Anointed droppin’ his ‘g’s, soundin’ like one of the plain folk livin’ in ‘fly over country’.

How can you listen to that simple man with his simple truth and not become simple yourself?

Why, you must hate all things right and true and good and warm and fuzzy.

Hater.

(sarc tag added for once, because this is too close to what I’ve seen posted in earnest lately)

It isn’t about what I believe - it’s about believing the truth when it smacks you in the face. But, hey, keep drinking the kool aid - just ask the people who followed Jim Jones how delicious it is - oh wait.............

ROFL.....I've got another name to add to my "bait, insult and run" Trump supporters list.

Here’s an honest reply. Do I like this association with the Bushes? No. Does it mean that Cruz has sold out to “the establishment?” I don’t think so. Do I think “the establishment” will do everything they can, including backing the lesser of their two evils to stop Trump? Absolutely. Do I still think Cruz is the consistent conservative in the race? Yep. Do I think Trump will get inhialated in the general if he’s the nominee? Hell yes.

Yep. Angel Raphael can do no wrong, because Angel Raphael can do no wrong. Forever and ever amen.

DANGEROUS territory these people occupy. Very close to the adoration of Herod, and I’ve thought so for months now.

Ted Cruz is a brilliant and principled conservative and I am proud to support him. Trump is a flip-flopping, self aggrandizing, vulgar man who I will not support for high office. Trump for businessman. Cruz for president.

1. It’s not like ANY Bush needs the money.

2. Is Ted high?

At least he’s up front about it. Assuming Roe told him about it before the contract with Neil was signed.

If Ted approved this, I’m candidateless now.

You left out the fact that Trump is the ONLY candidate that threatens to blow up the entire money grubbing system. If you want proof, just look at who both parties are 100% committed to destroying.

OH we have tried to tell the cruzbots for months now they were being taken down the river without a paddle, but narry they didn't listen...

So now that we know that Cruz was born in Canada; had Canadian Citizenship; ran for Senator of Texas, opps, forgot, he forgot he had Canadian Birth Right, must not forget that important piece of information, and lied to the Texas people he didn't know he had ‘Canadian Duel Citizenship’ and he forgot he didn't report his Goldman Sachs; and his Citi-Bank debts; and then said he was an ‘outsider’ and we all tried to say he wasn't, well, well, well, what do we have here? The Bush Crime Family helping him out...I wonder when the Clinton Crime Family and the Government Crime Family is going to be next??? hmmmm just don't know when or where it's going to happen!!!

I think it’s quite telling. Puts them all on the side of lies and sleazy politics, okay with destroying the country and supporting those who would.
