now that the “cats” are out of the proverbial bag.... (or the other more unacceptable name used to designate, ahem, cats)

Cruz no longer has to the GOPe’s bidding. The GOPe blackmailers have officially lost their controllable candidate...

As their demise consolidates... watch out for riots, murders and assassination attempts... directed by those who hold the reins of power in their filthy corrupt hands.

I knew their was something wrong with Cruz—I believe it—he thinks he can do no wrong.

If they are proven to be true, we should care very much. If he can’t be faithful to his wife, how can we expect him to be faithful to our country?

I feel like there's a difference between somebody who has acknowledged affairs in the context of an open marriage or some such, versus someone who claims to be devout and subscribes to a moral code which precludes adultery.

That's why, if these allegation are true, the hypocrisy is astounding.

One or two alleged dalliances can be dismissed as "tabloid trash". But FIVE? More?

The Enquirer, as much as they're a tabloid, has a pretty good track record of nailing politicians with these infidelities.

Additionally, in the aftermath of the recent Gawker smackdown, you'd think that the National Enquirer would be very careful to have their story pretty well nailed down.

That doesn't bode well for Ted Cruz, and neither does his immediate and predictable accusation that the catch-all boogeyman Donald Trump is behind this.

Evidence seems to point to Rubio wanting to use this story back before Super Tuesday, since we now know there were rumblings from that camp, and also that the media has been sitting on the knowledge of this story for weeks.

Other elements of the Establishment also doesn't like Ted Cruz, so maybe this is from some other GOPe source.

If it is true, Ted Cruz's campaign and career are obliterated. So I hope it's not.

Unfortunately, I've already seen several alarming signs that Ted Cruz is not exactly who he appeared to be before his Presidential campaign started...

I think we could say God has been anointing him with the heavenly ZOT for the last several days, right?

Will Ted get the hint and go back to Canada? Because it appears he has deposited more than one rather permanent stain on his blue dresses...

Having an affair is the ultimate ‘attack’ on a wife.

I knew Cruz was not who he claims he is simply by the fact that he is a natural born Canadian 1st term Jr. Senator from Harvard.

Yep, then Trump will “make a deal” with congres that, “Okay, the good ones don’t have to go home first, they can just stay here.”

I was on the wide road in my 30’s. That was the first half of my life.

Ezekial 18:21-32

21 “But if the wicked man turns from all his sins which he has committed and observes all My statutes and practices justice and righteousness, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 22 All his transgressions which he has committed will not be remembered against him; because of his righteousness which he has practiced, he will live. 23 Do I have any pleasure in the death of the wicked,” declares the Lord God, “rather than that he should turn from his ways and live?

24 “But when a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, commits iniquity and does according to all the abominations that a wicked man does, will he live? All his righteous deeds which he has done will not be remembered for his treachery which he has committed and his sin which he has committed; for them he will die. 25 Yet you say, ‘The way of the Lord is not right.’ Hear now, O house of Israel! Is My way not right? Is it not your ways that are not right? 26 When a righteous man turns away from his righteousness, commits iniquity and dies because of it, for his iniquity which he has committed he will die. 27 Again, when a wicked man turns away from his wickedness which he has committed and practices justice and righteousness, he will save his life. 28 Because he considered and turned away from all his transgressions which he had committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 29 But the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not right.’ Are My ways not right, O house of Israel? Is it not your ways that are not right?

30 “Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, each according to his conduct,” declares the Lord God. “Repent and turn away from all your transgressions, so that iniquity may not become a stumbling block to you. 31 Cast away from you all your transgressions which you have committed and make yourselves a new heart and a new spirit! For why will you die, O house of Israel? 32 For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone who dies,” declares the Lord God. “Therefore, repent and live.”

“Bill is running for First Lady.”

*****

Nope. Both Bill and Hillary have made it clear that he’s not interested in going back to DC as the President’s spouse.

Instead, Hillary has trial ballooned two names to serve in the role of First Lady: Chelsea and Huma.

You apparently are not yet aware that Trump is in favor of amnesty so long as the amnesty papers are not filed domestically. The amnesty seeker has to leave the country, file for amnesty, and return. Differently sliced, but still amnesty. The only candidate firmly opposed to ANY form of amnesty is Cruz, like it or not.

The Great Mistake was blaming Trump

Cruz has made a demonstrably unpresidential action by blaming the wrong guy. That is, he pushed the nuclear button to obliterate the wrong target. His intelligence was either faulty or he purposely bombed the wrong target.

It is unforgivable for him to have poor intel. He should have staff with nose to the grindstone ferreting out the events of the day and informing him of what is what. His staff failed to gather the correct facts known by many that the Rubio people were peddling the story eventually picked up by the NE.

The decidedly unpresidential response is more important than the screwing around. Cruz lacks the judgement to be President.
