Cruz pulls support from Moore: Allegations merit ‘criminal prosecution’ if true
The Hill ^ | November 13, 2017 | ELLIOT SMILOWITZ

Posted on 11/13/2017 8:13:42 PM PST by conservative98

Sen. Ted Cruz on Monday withdrew his support from Alabama GOP Senate nominee Roy Moore, saying allegations of sexual misconduct should be looked at by prosecutors.

“As it stands, I can’t urge the people of Alabama to support a campaign in the face of these charges without serious, persuasive demonstration that the charges are not true,” the Texas Republican told reporters, according to a Texas Tribune reporter.

“Both last week and this week, there are serious charges of criminal conduct that if true, not only make him unfit to serve in the Senate but merit criminal prosecution,” he added.

Well said.

But formatting is your friend.

My wife of 30 years is 13 years younger than me. I was 31 she was 17. Her parents give us their blessing.

Today the conservatism as we know it died.

For God’s sake, Mary was only 16 when the holy Spirit made her with child.

So if 16 was fine with God back then, and He never changes (we do) then 16 is fine today.

During the primary I wasn't a Never Trumper, more of a "not sure about Trumper". I did vote for Cruz but was willing to accept a Trump victory, and thank G-D ALMIGHTY things turned out the way they did! Seems like the RINOs know these allegations are dubious and are distancing themselves from Judge Moore as their way of gaining "street cred" with the feminists, as if that will ever happen. If so it only shows how truly disingenuous they are.

“Ly’n Ted bombs again. Adios”

Yeah, I take back the positive comment I made about him yesterday.

The mask has slipped. We know what’s under it, regardless of the mask of the day.

There has been a 30 year plan put in place to steal the country by importing foreigners.
The final amnesty that would cement the Bush Plan for North Mexico (aka USA) into place has been sought repeatedly since 2006. They sold us Rubio to get the last one in 2013.
We have been prevented from electing anyone who would side with US and the rule of law.
Trump had the wealth and fame to break through the Bush blockade at the RNC.
They are not going to allow that to happen again.
The most important thing to the Uniparty is protecting the demographic changes they have made to the country against the will of the citizens.
That’s what drives the NeverTrump, the media and the Democrats hatred of Trump, it is an extension of their hatred of US.

What a weak piece of toast cRuz has proven to be. First with his lies about Dr Carson dropping out, then with his CR/NeverTrumper bashing, now this.

We need that fake, Conservative Review “Score Card” updated to show all of Lyin Ted’s RINOisms/Dem tactics displayed.

My theory on this is, those with the worst skeletons in their closets (and no media water carriers) rolled over first. The threats go out daily, pulling a few more each day. Great strategy. We need term limits. Oh, and a noose for Hitlery.

During the Presidential primary he had Neil Bush directing his fundraising.

This is disappointing, but not unexpected.

“I’m not even sure of the context. It’s apparently his daughter. Whatever the case, it’s still skin crawling.”

It was his daughter. And not the only incident. On the one had, she is being petulant. On the other hand, she clearly hit her limit with being a campaign stage prop.

Her younger sister looks alarmed at the time. It doesn’t show well in that clip where she is mostly off screen to the right.

Here is a longer clip with sound. I think it is a case of theatrical insincerity imposed on tired kids/props.

“He does not seem to be a fighter anymore.”

He never was. He was and is a neocon construct. A simulated conservative false front, like some of the clergy in the Soviet Union.

“Reminiscent of his blaming Trump for the riot in Chicago.”

That’s when he lost me. When it’s his turn to shine, he passes gas.

No comments from Teddy about Joe Biden’s decades of sexual improprieties against girls, teenage girls, young women and any woman he forced himself on:

Time to bring out the obscene/creepy pictures of Biden fondling girls/teenage girls and women of all ages!

Hands UnChristian Biden in action:!

>> Wasn’t he Ted Cruz’s main supporter or campaign manager or something? <<

That doesn’t sound familiar. But I think the Mercers have been the main financial backing both for Breitbart and for Cruz.
