Cruz Releases Video Of Trump Talking New York Values And Partial Birth Abortion Support
Redstate ^ | 1/16/2016 | Jay Caruso

Ted Cruz has taken more heat for his comments about “New York values” than he has anything else he has said since he was elected in 2012. Naturally, since most of the mainstream media is based out of New York, it has been high horse riding time as so many have gotten their panties in a wad over the comments. Ironically, they take more offense at what Cruz said than in Donald Trump’s blatant birtherism. Being a birther is cool now that it’s not Barack Obama who is the subject of Trump’s comments.

Unfortunately for Trump, who deftly (but at the same time shamelessly) evoked 9/11 as a means of responding to Ted Cruz’s comments, he cannot escape the very things he has said over the course of the last 15 years. Trump, as I have said on prior occasions is a charlatan. He is not a conservative at all. He is not now and never has been one. Outside of immigration (which is far more based on phony populism than policy), his views on taxes, healthcare, foreign policy and trade carry all the hallmarks of a progressive Democrat.

Lol. I grew up in New York City and Cruz is right on target which is why the flak is coming from the commie Mayor, Governor and MSM ensconced in that liberal hellhole. But it is a good test for Cruz. If he isn’t tough enough to handle the screeching from you and them he is not tough enough to handle the demands of the campaign against Clinton and the left.

If we're living by the laws the country was founded upon, you don't get a vote. Just saying...

How so?

God has already weighed in on abortion. He doesn’t do so on a case by case basis.

He is more than tough enough as Trump will find out.

I would not dream of telling you who to vote for. Your conscience already has big problems. You do not even know who the antichrist literally is. I read what you said. You would vote for the antichrist before you would vote for trump. Your choice, your problem... Own it, you know, conservative values and all. Personal individual responsibility!

“He took loans against stock he had.” Why explain the facts of life to “PATQ”. If by now in their life they do not understand what a collateral load is they never will.

But “PATQ” and others who support The Donald do have New York values - Conservative / Limited G’ment - Not so much

So far of three of the loudest and most prolific Trump posters on FR, One is Pro choice, One is an admitted Clinton supporter and the third won’t deny her association with No Labels after spouting their talking points.

Women couldn’t vote. Unless HarleyLady27 is a white man who owns property?

LOL, also, he said, “Look, this is the first time you’ve asked me this question”. In other words, “I didn’t have time to rehearse an answer.”

The guy kept asking specific questions and his response was to hold up his hands: “Look, I’m pro-life, OK? I’m pro-life.”

Seriously, how can anyone support this fraud?

Which is probably why he won’t the Manhattan straw poll: The few conservatives who DO come out of Manhattan known a true conservative when they see one.

Maybe you're not aware that as the Constitution was written, it allowed for amendments?

Folks know Trump’s positions have changed, over the years. Old news. Yawn.

The stuff coming out about CRuz is recent, and smacks of sneaky snakiness. His recent ‘disclosure’ letter to the FEC is an example of the CRuz-two-step.

No thanks, CRuz, We the People are fed up with the sneaky stuff.

I think so. Quite a few of us think so actually. And when you combine that with FR’s India traffic, it gets even more interesting.

He doesn’t even say he hates abortion. He says he is VERY (emphasis is his) pro-choice in every way. Therefore he goes with partial-birth abortion, even though he hates partial-birth abortion.

If you understand the nature of the AntiChrist, why do you think my vote would interfere with God's plans for the last days?

"Well, I was just about to start the end times ball rolling, but CatherineofAragon's vote stopped me!"

" I read what you said. You would vote for the antichrist before you would vote for trump."

This is what I said, so why are you lying?

"No way in hell, not even if he runs against the AntiChrist. I wouldn’t dirty myself by voting for Trump."

Believe me, it would be a pleasure to go to sleep at night knowing I didn't soil myself by casting a vote for that lying progressive fraud.

One thing that people should not do is judge unless you have been there in their shoes, I fortunately have not had to make that decision, and don't know if I could or not, being raised in a very strict Catholic home and having gone to Catholic school, but I don't believe that anyone in that situation should determine what they would do...

If that gives all of you ‘righteous Conservative bone gnawing’ people something to chew on, be my guess, at least you'll have something in your mouth beside your tongue...

Abortion and the Conscience of a Nation sits on my mantle. Stating Reagan was pro abortion is a lie and I will call it just that. Yes he signed that stupid legislation and regretted it to the day he died. But he was never a baby killing pos.
