Asked by a Republican gay-rights supporter at a Madison Avenue fundraiser in New York if a Ted Cruz administration would make fighting gay marriage a top priority, the candidate's reply was succinct: "No." Audio of the event, which took place in December, was obtained by Politico's Mike Allen

Gotta love the media push to see what they can get to stick to Cruz when all they really do is prove how much GOPe doesn’t understand its base, states rights, conservatism or the US Constitution.
Of course Cruz is right that SSM is a state, not federal, issue.
Of course Cruz is right because Cruz is actually a conservative.
Of course Cruz is right because Cruz actually understands the US Constitution reserves such power to the states not SCOTUS.
Of course the MSM and GOPe will think this is a problem.
Of course we’ll see multiple articles at FR because...see above.
And the chimps applaud.
I agree with that.
My top 3 would be
Abortion
Terrorism
Immigration
Those do not require an immediate replacement of scotus justices
Yep, and no one wants to deal with that mess.
ISIS, Jobs, 2nd Amendment, Budget, Taxes, National Security, Eliminating Departments,
man, I can think of a dozen things that should be in the Top Three.
Until we have an Article V Convention and an amendment is passed allowing states to overturn a SCOTUS verdict, I’m not really sure what can be done about it.
The fact that we have a rogue court more troubling and far more dangerous than this particular ruling IMO.
Go TRUMP !!!
In Leaked Audio, Ted Cruz Says Fighting Gay Marriage Not A 'Top-Three' PriorityTrolling for gay donors? Or was the whole "I stand with Kim Davis" just another Cruz lie?
Was he lying then or is he lying now? Now that he's admitted to a lie, we don't know when he's not lying.
Triage is an apt analogy.
Terrorism, gun rights and stopping the illegal invasion are more urgent issues.
well we got Scalia and Clarence Thomas. I trust Cruz in that regard more than anyone else running.
Wow, I guess Islam is blessed because they are tough on Homosexuals.
It’s not for me either. I’m still strongly against it and so is Cruz. Nice try, libs.
Acceptance of gay marriage is a moral issue.
Only when public perception and attitude is strong enough can lawmakers legislate right and wrong.
Our society is a cesspool. Laws can’t mend hearts.
I frankly don’t expect any politician to make it a priority. It’s a testament to what a depraved, morally rotted populace we now have, which is a fact I can no longer argue against.
And as long as the sick, evil degeneracy of faggot-marriage is legally recognizied and culturally celebrated with any kind of legitimacy in this country, America itself can truly go burn in hell, as far as I care.
Amazing...the MSM is already creating fictional hit pieces about Cruz..the power brokers are starting to soil their Depends!
“...the Supreme Court has ruled.”
Let THEM enforce it = no ‘political capital’ (I detest that term. What a cheap way to weasel out of enforcing and adhering to the Constitution) required.
Nope, Homosexual marriage is way down on my list also. Restoring Constitutional government, putting people back to work, and rolling back any and everything progressive Obamascare at the top are the top priority.
Say, didn't a certain President with a passion for cigars (so to speak) bomb the Balkans on behalf of some mooslimes so they would love us and not kill us?
Just axing.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH US ALL !!!
