Aren't you upset in the slightest that Beck has gone so far over the top in his endorsement of Cruz? Aren't you rattled one bit that Cruz hasn't distanced himself from him or said one negative word about how insane the stuff Beck says is?

I would run from that kind of endorsement, it's just shy of being endorsed by the John Birch Society in the days after Buckley outed them. No it's actually worse than that; it's incomprehensible you don't find it bizarre in the least and is quite the self condemnation.

I am far more appalled, as you as a Trump supporter should be by the outrages committed daily on this forum by Trump supporters who have so degraded the level of discourse here to a degree that it might not be recoverable.

I have no brief to carry for Beck. I am put off by many of his excesses but he is not the candidate, Cruz is the candidate and Cruz has almost never put a foot wrong in this campaign. If you look at the Trump campaign it is the candidate himself who commits grotesquerie after gaffe, after inciting violence.

If I were Cruz I would downplay my association with Beck but I do not find the current state of the relationship between the two nearly as offputting as the malicious buffoonery of Donald Trump.

If you want to play the repudiation game, one usually indulged in by the left in New York City in which candidates are compelled to repudiate whole voting blocs as well as out-of-favor individuals, I suggest you start with Roger Stone.

LOL....I was called a John Bircher by a Cruzophile, along with other sordid things. Some of them need to be checked for rabies : )
