Arrogant?
Confident! He knows what he believes and why he believes it and is not swayed by shallow pop-cultural gutterage.
This is the new definition of arrogant?

Unless you’re a speed reader or something, you didn’t have time to read it. LOL

It was actually a good article. I just don’t think “our side” should be using the world “arrogant” that way.

It got your attention in a way “confident” or “assured” wouldn’t have.

RE:”
Scott Walker is a terrific governor and an attractive candidate, but he has no foreign policy experienceunlike Reagan, who did a weekly foreign policy radio broadcast for a decade, and did his own research. Walker could persuade me that he knows what hes doing, but I havent heard much from him yet. Foreign policy is too important for the next administration for us to elect a president who needs on-the-job training” ???
Lets not be ridiculous.
I wasn't going to comment until I saw this ludicrous ending.
That is an argument for Cruz as POTUS??

Rand Paul, who is a dumb rube isolationist of the old school and unqualified for national office
That should raise some hackles.

That’s the author’s opinion. Maybe start a news site or a blog and share your opinions.

Cruz knows who he is, and what he believes, and he is honest and true, Palin is like that, Reagan was like that.
They are all different, but they are all centered, and can speak to anyone about what they think, and what they believe.
I love Reagan, and one reason that I think his faith was deep, was the fact that he could remain real and humble while also being a King, Reagan had it all, his physical courage as a regionally famous life guard and as a 5 year Cavalryman, his speaking abilities, his looks, his entire life of being wonderful and most of it wealthy, yet he was always, Reagan, the man.
Cruz is similar, Cruz the genius, Cruz the famous debater, Cruz always the brightest man in the room and a wonder, but also Cruz, the simple Southern Baptist Christian.
Palin is like that.
Exceptional human beings and politicians who are Christ anchored, which keeps them grounded and focused on the goal of helping America and their fellow man, as they use their talents to enrich more than just themselves.

It’s a very good analysis of Ukraine and how Israel is hurt by our stupidity in Ukraine, but I would like to hear more about how we stayed too long in Iraq.
I think it was a mistake to go into Iraq, but once we were there I think we had to stay. Obutthead pulled out and the place fell apart. In 2007 the surge actually won the war, then Obutthead handed the keys to Iran and ISIS. Is Cruz saying there should have been no surge, that we should have given it all away before 2007?
Please elaborate.

RE:”

His logic is ridiculous.

I just thought you’d be able to answer the question. Sorry to bother you.
To: sickoflibs
How so? Are you of the mind that Scott Walker is head and shoulders a better candidate for president than Ted Cruz? If so, why? Because he fought unions? That’s important, but is only one qualification.

You’re not “bothering” me, but I’m not the candidate or a staffer. I have no idea how to answer your question.
