Who said there was an effective date? I believe at least two hard (nut) cases got zotted today and at least one thread that was full of nasty, lying, slanderous attacks on our conservative friends Levin and Cruz got pulled. No further definition of nasty, lying, slanderous attack is required. You can figure it out for yourself.

Your kids were born with a divided citizenship.

They are wholly one thing or parts of another.

“Who said there was an effective date?”
Well, actually, “If he decides to run” certainly implies one.
Nevermind. If I am found to be posting nasty, lying, slanderous attacks, then I certainly need to be zotted.
Thanks for the reply.

As of the second term, the birther stuff is mute.

If you haven’t heard a speech by Cruz, listen to this one. Not a single note as he talks to a room full of lawyers. And he is funny at times. This man is real.

I am familiar with his style and demeanor.

He is to the point without being personal.
Stick to his guns and chips away.

He is quite affable even in situations where people take potshots at him.

There’s an older rule in effect: No attacks on freepers or our conservative friends, candidates or potential candidates. Mark Levin is a conservative friend and FReeper. Cruz is probably the most conservative friend we have currently in the senate and he was put there by the grassroots (including us) and he is a potential grassroots presidential candidate and we don’t intend on hosting a site that attempts to tear him down. I usually let a lot of this stuff slide, but after the beating we took in the last two presidential elections, I’m less likely to allow that to happen. If you guys want to go off and start your own anti-Cruz website, be my guest. I won’t try to stop you. Good luck.

I don’t know what Cuba’s laws

Do you know natural law?

Our Founders did.

No it’s not mute. As a matter a fact it is going to get kicked into high gear with Arpaio’s Obama forged birth certificate and selective service evidence recently being turned over to Congressman Stockman who’s ready to investigate on Capitol Hill.

Nothing against Joe Arpio, but if anyone kicked this into higher gear it is Ted Cruz himself.

Does Cuba follow natural law?

I think not.

So for the record Jim, are you implying that no threads are to be made that questions Ted Cruz’s eligibility to be a candidate for president?

Yes he did! We’ve had more mainstream media stories on his citizenship in the past month that media stories on Obama’s citizenship his whole presidency.

I'm not implying any such thing. I'm stating that if you post another slanderous attack on Mark Levin or Ted Cruz like you did earlier today, your ass is zot.

If you wish to attack good conservatives, start your own damned website and have at it. You're not going to do it here. Good luck with that.

“There are people here now who are old enough to run, hate this country, who’s parents were never citizens and never wanted to be. But they were born just on American soil. Somehow I don’t think the founders considered them presidential timber.”

Yep. Second generation illegals, I call them. Speak Spanglish, little English, wave the Mexican flag around, yet, they can run for president. Matt’s book Domestic Enemies was about such a scenario whereby the Mexicans take over New Mexico. Without illegal voting and taxation without representation, read:welfare, the Democrats would get very few votes.
