In my now over thirteen years with FR, seldom (if ever) have I seen a ZOTting more amply warranted.

I thought he might lighten up after the first banning....silly me.

Or perhaps it’s more a case of arrested moral development. Most of us, when we’re quite young, see people as either good or bad. For example, if you have good parents, we see them as all good. The idea that they have flaws is incompatible with this level of morality.
Typically with time this perception changes. We begin to see people as complex, with even very good people having shortcomings, and even not good people having a decent trait or two.
Then you’ve got people that never make it to that level of morality. Even as adults, they see people as all good or all bad. To a Cruz supporter operating on this moral level, Cruz is all good and Trump is all bad. Hence their inability to see Cruz’ flaws, and hence too our frustration. When you’re dealing with a person that can’t get beyond, All Good vs All Bad, facts, logic and rationality don’t attain. The only possible outcome of engaging with such an individual is futility.
This isn’t to suggest the arrested development person is a bad person. Often they’re very good people. They’re just not very mature, fwiw.

I am guessing towards a “suspension” possibly, in the like form of the several reappearances of, *LobbyLu.
It’s like Fatal Attraction.. some are allowed to keep resurfacing. You think they are gone and then BOOM, they’re back.
I get it. It’s not easy for the management to kiss off these old timers who have just lost it over this primary.
It takes guts to find the boot and deliver its swift force to the seat of the pants, but this is over the rise and fall of our country, now.
Who needs a Cruz discussion still yammering from the nose bleed section.
It’s either TRUMP, or the USA is a BUST. Period. The game playing and the sore loser sniffle crowd have got to fight along side of us or get out of the way.

That is also when said goodbye to Lying Ted forever and swore he’d never get my vote. For a supposed constitutional scholar (yeah right) to try to deprive people their free speech rights was traitorous. But doing it to the very people who were willing to support him was by far the most foolish thing he ever could have done.
Chicago was so unforgivable that not even the most fervent Cruzlim will defend it or even respond to the criticism because they know it’s true that he sold Republican voters out in an attempt to score a few cheap political points with the media.
EPIC FAIL for LYING LOSER Ted Cruz. He’s no better than Romney.

Suspended until after the election and Trump kicks bump will be okay.
I see that damn photo of the Reb general, and I go away.

I’m fine with a suspension until after the election, but I agree, that photo of Nathan Bedford Forrest makes me very uneasy.

I didn't forget the required music, dearest Sharky!
I was too damn lazy ... given that I have totally quit smoking my super long Kool's after all these years decades without so much as an announcement to family (who didn't even notice for over a week ...damn them!...)
Talk about easy-peasy. Just buy that fruit flavored nicotine gum. I've quit twice before but have gone back out of boredom. Here in CA, cigs are $10 per pkg. I'd NEVER pay over $4.

Perectly worded, as always!
Cruz himself, is only making his future more uncertain with his foolish statements. I try to my level best to ignore him.
