Ted Cruz in Cape Girardeau For Rally, Press Conference
KVFS ^ | March 12, 2016

Ted Cruz in Cape Girardeau For Rally, Press Conference March 11th 2016,

Doors opened at 4 p.m. and the rally began a little after 5 p.m.

Hundreds of people lined up around the block just to get in, and some were turned away after they were unable to get tickets.

During a rally, Cruz stressed religious freedom, and received standing ovations for his view on repealing the new health care laws and on second amendment rights.

Those who attended the rally said these speaking events are important when it comes to choosing your candidate.

"It's nice to be able to see him in person and hear the whole thing and not someone coming in and cutting him out all the time," one attendee said. "Let him have the stage and keep talking."

"A lot of times things get swayed one way or the other, you don't get the right information," another attendee said. "So, it's better to hear what they have to say if you have a question to ask, ask."

A press conference followed the rally.

During the press conference, Cruz said layoffs at New Madrid County's Noranda aluminum plant and the Illinois budget stalemate are because of big government. He said he has a plan to bring jobs back to the U.S.

"My flat tax plan is what's called border adjustable which means all exports are tax free, all imports pay that tax," Cruz said. "What that means is we will see millions of jobs from overseas from China and Mexico, coming back to America, coming back to Missouri, coming back to Illinois. We will rebuild the American middle class that has been hammered by seven years of failed Obama and Clinton economy."

You are nuts. Innocent reporter. No. She is charging the wrong guy. She is a dingy woman who is clueless. And her doofus boyfriend was on the news the other day. What a tool he is. Weak as the day is long. Most Cruz supporters are very weak.

His flat tax...ha... How about his Euro-peen VAT tax.

Some people are born to deceive and some people are born to be deceived.

Cruz and Limbaugh are both pieces of sh**.

Where are the Viking Kitties when you need them? Has Trump killed the kitties?

It is a business flat tax that bears no resemblance to a European VAT.

Has Cruz apologised for his defense of BLM yet?

If he doesn’t, then at least we know which side he is on.

I'm sure if he showed up in Ferguson, they’d welcome him with open arms (and Molotov cocktails).

Cruz, from Oct. 2015:

“If you look at the Black Lives Matter movement, one of the most disturbing things is more than one of their protests have embraced rabid rhetoric, rabid anti-police language, literally suggesting and embracing and celebrating the murder of police officers,” the Texas senator said. “That is disgraceful.”

Cruz, March 2016:

“Political discourse should occur in this country without a threat of violence....Responsibility for that lies with protesters who took violence into their own hands.”

Of course he did not take the side of the protesters. What a bizarre spin.

Yes he did.

He blamed Trump for speaking his mind and having the gall to run for President.

In Ted’s world you cannot do that. It is politically incorrect.

O, come on now, it was in the local church, and there was plenty of room for everybody who showed up for the rally, and plenty of room to spare...

Please do not insult. Cruz's tax plan is two fold. A flat tax and one he never talks about, a VAT tax on business. I suspect Cruz's VAT tax is from his Euro-peen business educated wife. Cruz is ignorant regarding taxes other than how to collect using the law.

Some people are born to deceive and some people are born to be deceive.

Good quotes by Cruz. Unfortunately, he couldn’t help but use that climate of fear bullshit language of the left that is only used against right wingers. It is the same poo that GOPe and NRO have been slinging. If Trump weren’t in the race, a less ferocious shitstorm would be thrown at Cruz. So his cucking for the BLM losers is disgusting. It shows his pure opportunism.

Innocent reporter. No. She is charging the wrong guy. She is a dingy woman who is clueless. And her doofus boyfriend was on the news the other day. What a tool he is. Weak as the day is long. Most Cruz supporters are very weak.

Plus she also has a history of making false assault accusations. She accused Allen West of grabbing her breast and also accused a NYC Cop of hitting her with his nightstick. Both charges were thrown out due to her refusal to swear under oath that these things occurred (didn't want a perjury rap). That Breitbart would retain a reporter with this kind of baggage makes them look bad. This charge against Trump's campaign manager fits this same pattern of making a big accusation, then backing out when asked to swear under oath that she was assaulted.
