Ted Cruz: Marco Rubio should “grow a backbone”, “sounded like Barack Obama” on gay marriage
mofopolitics.com ^ | Jun. 26, 2015

On Friday, Marxist collaborator Marco Rubio urged Americans to abide by the Supreme Court’s unconstitutional ruling…

"We live in a republic and must abide by the law."

Cruz’s response:

"You know what’s striking…how many of the presidential candidates today issued statements on the marriage decision that basically said that ‘the court has spoken, the issue is over, it’s time to move on’. They sounded like Barack Obama.

It was heartbreaking, and I have to say, I look at some of these folks and I think, for once, could you grow a backbone!?"

I’m officially no longer looking at any of the candidates.

Cruz is it.

This one of the few times Ted has attacked another candidate, and he is doing it perfectly

Rubio cooked his goose when


Rubio cooked his goose when he schemed with Schumer and his Gang of Eight against the citizens.
He’s a phony conservative.

I have to say I like what I’m hearing from Cruz. Did I hear correctly that he changed his vote to nay at the last minute on Trade Promotion Authority? Has he explained his reasoning on that?

Rubio’s statement is hilarious. If the SC doesn’t abide by the law, why should we?

It was exactly the right thing to say. Rubio has the backbone of a jelly fish. He is pathetic.

If you think Cruz hasn’t done anything, you aren’t paying close enough attention. He proposed an Amendment to protect traditional marriage a while ago.

He takes a stand in the Senate all the time. That is why he is the only candidate with a 100% Conservative rating.

He got legislation passed as a freshman Senator with Harry Reid presiding over the Senate. He has fought and won before the Supreme Court to protect the 2nd Amendment. He has won cases before the Supreme Court against the U.N., Obama, and the World Court to protect our sovereignty.

There is no other Senator who fights harder for Conservatives than Ted Cruz. You say he only uses “words. Words that have faith behind them are powerful. After all, the Creator spoke everything into existence that He created.

Yes. There was back door dealing going on between the Dems and Boehner and McConnell. They were promising an extension for the Ex-IM Bank, another corporate welfare bailout. Plus the Bill coming back to the Senate from the House was a Bill weakened by Dem amendments.

I fully expected the change in his vote and started doing searches 3 days before he announced his decision. He was right to do so.

Yet, Limbaugh’s lips remain firmly glued to Rubio’s backside.

If you don't have a backbone, opiates have no effect on you.

Sorry, clams.

How is that going to happen, Constitutionally? Cruz knows better than that.

But, you keep mentioning Kennedy...what about Roberts, Kagan, the Wise Latina and the old Hag?

Simply perfect. Channelling Palin and Trump, nice.
