Cruz needs to ask Obama to his face; “if Syria is contained, why can’t they be sent home?”

Obama won’t dignify those comments. He’ll ignore them from on high.

Obama won’t even stand up boy to man to Joe the Plumber on the street. Ted Cruz would shred the little sh*t weasel.

This is excellent.

In fact, I’ll probably end up coming back to read it a few times just because it feels so good, LOL.

Unbefitting an American president indeed. His entire presidency is unbefitting an American president.

Cruz is, as usual, spot on.

Feels so very good! Ted is quite careful with his rhetoric (unlike some I could mention). So this blast is doubly effective.
