Daily Mail (as the reporter said) “The premier English-speaking newspaper in the world.” LOL!
Correction: “English Language”
Keep in mind that if it’s a Natonal Enquire story then it’s OK to cheat on your wife and 2 kids. We have to wait until it’s a faux news story for us to be appalled! Got it! Wink wink
Thank God!
In the court of public opinion you're right, adultery is not a crime ... but hypocrisy is.
If you’re a Republican (as a Democrat, adultery is usually a resume-enhancer), this is one charge you have to defend if it is false. You hold a press conference with your wife at your side and you denounce the report and deny the accusations. If possible, you get the wife to say they are false.
A lot of women, who will never speak a word about it unless asked, will dump a politician if he’s an adulterer because, to them, that’s the most sacred vow and nothing else from that candidate is trustworthy if he isn’t true to his wife.
You can’t treat it like a money scandal or a flip flop. You have to attack it head on or admit it as true and ask for forgiveness. There are no other political options.
ProstituTED
Fiorina has a dog in this fight, if her campaign or staff are in some way complicit with FEC violations. Coordination with Ted Cruz, may now be more than simple joint opposition to Donald Trump.
Why is it that hyper feminist women who hate men are the first to run and defend men’s uncontrollable pipis. I’ve never understood that. It is as if these women wish they were the men abusing the women.
I don’t get it. Basically Fiorina is making it so Cruz can go a Scruz all the women he wants. There is something wrong with these women. They are like modern day concubines.
The media would have just ignored it as they had already signaled they were going to do.
Just like they did with Larry Craig.
The media is doing what they always do. And we are falling for it again.
Unbelievable. He didn’t even try to deny it.
She doesn’t have to.
When I first started working at my family’s lumber mill it was a failing business. My dad had lost nearly everything. He was never very mechanically gifted and had hired experts to help him. They had constructed an elaborate facility out of old lumber mill equipment. The only problem was that they could never get the output up to where it needed to be.
When the money started running out, I came back from college and started working there to save the wages of one lumber mill worker. I never had even taken a shop class in high school but I have always been very observant. The first thing that I found out is that the machines were constantly getting clogged with sawdust and wood shavings which caused a lot of down time. I came up with ways using sheet metal to help direct the sawdust and shavings up the blower pipes. My solutions helped a great deal and our output increased.
The thing that puzzled me however was that we had a huge 5 foot diameter squirrel cage blower with a massive 3 phase motor powering it and what seemed to me to be very little suction. I asked one of the experts my dad had hired to run the mill what would happen if the blower was running backwards. He scoffed at me and said that it would blow air instead of suck it.
I wasn’t convinced, so that night I removed a bunch of bolts from the front of the blower to remove the flange that all the duct work was attached to. When I turned the blower on... it was running backwards. When the city had reconnected the building to 3 phase power they had reversed one of the phases. The blower had been running backwards for 3 years.
It took me less than 5 minutes to switch the position of 2 large wires in the controller box and he blower started running the correct direction. We had so much suction that I had to removed all of the sheet metal contraptions that I had made to divert shavings and sawdust. Our production increased exponentially.
All the Cruz campaign had to do was say, “Look, it’s the Enquirer.” That is all they had to do and everyone would have ignored it, at least through this critical stage in the primary. Instead they unleashed their elaborate plan, baiting Trump and then blaming him for everything when he reacted. It has gotten a whole lot of media coverage, and probably hasn’t damaged Trump at all. But the question everyone now has is whether Cruz was ever unfaithful to his wife. He was 31 years old when he got married and they lived in separate states for the first 7 years. Both of Ted’s parents were alcoholics and Ted has had a well documented history with alcohol. I don’t think he was a saint. Was Donald Trump? Do I care? No. But many other people probably do about Ted; Trump has already come clean.
The Cruz campaign mishandled this thing because Ted hired too many sneaky scheming political operatives and they had too much time to prepare. They came up with an elaborate and some would say ingenuous scheme. But they would have been much better off if someone had stepped back and realized that the only publication willing to run the story was a tabloid. A tabloid? They could have reversed two wires and the problem would have gone away.
It is NOT definitive. The NE story could very well be full of lies, and Cruz still be an adulterer.
Cruz did not deny adultery. He just hurled an irrelevant accusation.
Uncanny! When Slick Willy gave his lying denial about Monica, he closed with, “...and I’m going to get back to work for the American people.”
When Cruz finally manned up enough to GIVE an answer, he DID NOT DENY the rumors. And HE closed with, “I’m going to focus on the issues that are important to the people of Wisconsin.”
