This week is a no-brainer.
Texas Senator Ted Cruz is our winner of the week for this clip of him hitting back at the Rainbow Jihad that has gone viral. As of Memorial Day, the clip had over 16,000 Facebook shares at Real Clear Politics. To put that number in perspective, Rand Paul was our winner of the week back on April 14th for this clip challenging Democrats on the life issue. Yet as of Noon on Memorial Day it had only been shared on Facebook less than 300 times via RCP.
Here’s the transcript of the Cruz clip:
REPORTER: Do you have a personal animosity against gay Americans?
SEN. TED CRUZ: Let me ask a question: Is there something about the left, and I am going to put the media in this category, that is obsessed with sex? Why is it the only question you want to ask concerns homosexuals? Okay, you can ask those questions over and over and over again. I recognize that you’re reading questions from MSNBC…
You’re wincing. You don’t want to talk about foreign policy. I recognize you want to ask another question about gay rights. Well, you know. ISIS is executing homosexuals. You want to talk about gay rights? This week was a very bad week for gay rights because the expansion of ISIS, the expansion of radical, theocratic, Islamic zealots that crucify Christians, that behead children and that murder homosexuals. That ought to be concerning you far more than asking six questions all on the same topic.
REPORTER: Do you have a personal animosity against gay Americans?
CRUZ: Do you have a personal animosity against Christians sir? Your line of questioning is highly curious. You seem fixated on a particular subject. Look, I’m a Christian. Scripture commands us to love everybody and what I have been talking about, with respect to same-sex marriage, is the Constitution which is what we should all be focused on. The Constitution gives marriage to elected state legislators. It doesn’t give the power of marriage to a president, or to unelected judges to tear down the decisions enacted by democratically elected state legislatures.
Not only does Cruz utilize almost all of my 10 Commandments of Political Warfare here, but he even chose to do so on an issue that has most so-called conservatives running for cover these days — the Rainbow Jihad.
Yet again Cruz demonstrates a level of courage unique among most of the politicians of this cowardly age, which is why in less than three years he’s gone from an underdog challenger in a U.S. Senate primary to a legitimate presidential candidate.
And it’s also why he’s once more our winner of the week.
Cruz control. Hop on. Enjoy the ride all the way to the White House.

HERE HERE!!
Real America is proud of Ted Cruz
“Rainbow Jihad”
That sums it up. Faggies think they own us “breeders”.
They don’t.
I disagree. Cruz placed himself very well by confronting
the idiot interviewer and putting him in his place. That
was exactly what he should have done, and he did it.
A simple “no” just wouldn’t have done Cruz any favors,
and it would have made him look weak and waffling.
Respectfully disagree. Simple statements of facts are powerful. And are all that are needed.
That’s fine. I will not argue.
