With Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, the first major announced presidential candidate, surging in the polls and raking in campaign cash, it was inevitable that the push back would follow. The “Stop Ted Cruz” campaign got off to a roaring start in Salon, a magazine that has always disdained the man from Texas, with a Sunday article by Heather Cox Richardson, a college professor who teaches 19th century American history. Richardson’s indictment against Cruz is a beaut, accusing him of being part of a conspiracy started by the late William F. Buckley and furthered by the late Sen. Barry Goldwater to take the country to what it was back before the New Deal.

Ted Cruz is a threat to the left wing lunatics running the country and they know it. So they attack through Salon, the mouthpiece of George Soros.

Yeah, right.

Ted Cruz’s demented strategy: He doesn’t need to win the White House to push America rightward
Blocking legislation, defunding the government and thwarting compromise is the real mission — and he’s winning

Tom Cotton’s unpatriotic forefathers: Treasonous Iran letter not the first time GOP has crossed the line
The ideology of movement conservatives is not simply partisanship. It is an attack on American democracy itself

GOP’s shutdown debacle resembles our first … in 1879!
A conservative minority refused to fund the government unless the president gave them their agenda. Sound familiar?

It’d be a boon to the calendar industry for sure.
Actually repealing much of the Democrat’s contributions to 20th Century America, and for that matter the World is kind of an appealing thought. Less crap we’d have to wade through to get back to where the constitution lies in wait for somebody to do something.
I would like to have a bumper sticker like that: Repeal the 17th Amendment and the 20th century.
I wouldn’t repeal the 20th century, but I would repeal any growth of FedGov beyond the enumerated powers. I’d like to start with a $1T cut in FedGov spread over four years ($400B, $300B, $200B and then $100B). Also completely eliminate all efforts to redistribute wealth, and then start identifying other potential areas to cut.
We hit a nerve, keep drillin’.
Ohhhh the horror !
Cry me a river !
This isn’t as ridiculous as when Obama claimed that he would stop the rise of the oceans.
“being part of a conspiracy started by the late William F. Buckley and furthered by the late Sen. Barry Goldwater to take the country to what it was back before the New Deal.”
And the problem is, what, exactly?
Repeal the 20th Century? What happens to the bridge to the 21st Century that Bill Clinton built?
That’s it - I’m never voting for that...that...MAN!
The century of communism? Good idea!
Actually, limited to the Federal government, repealing the 20th century sounds like a grand idea.
A multi whole root canal without novocane would be more fitting.
