In the very next paragraph you say," ...whenever the teacher led us in "Where have all the flowers gone?," I sang loudly and nasally to show my contempt. The rest of the class thought it a good joke and either giggled or joined me. I was fearless of being sent to the principal. I knew in my heart I was in the right, and believe the teacher knew it too, because he never took steps to discipline me"
That is, by the very definition, 'rebellion'.
I was the same way. I was National Honor Society from Junior High through High school. I saw straight through my teacher's socialist tendencies. and would call them on it in class much to their chagrin.
I listen daily to Rush, Michael Berry, Hannity, even Levin try to educate us on why the establishment hates Cruz more than Trump. They get close but so far have fallen short of the end game. The establishment is looking farther down the road than ours heroes in the conservative radio programs and see this:
Prime example #1. When Ted called McConnell a liar from the Senate floor that is all that the MSM allowed the American people to hear. They dared not allow the citizens to hear the rest of the story. Ted explained in very simple to understand terms what the Senate leaders did to squash the easy victory that was at their fingertips. Regular folks were not allowed to hear that. Freepers heard it all but the vast majority of hard working Americans did not because of the collusion the MSM has with the elite.
The Washington Cartel looks farther down the road and can see what would happen if Cruz was elected President. He would own the U.S. Presidents 'bully pulpit'!
Imagine for a minute the House or more especially the Senate pulling their procedural shenanigans with Cruz as President. Cruz is very educated in the Roberts Rules of Order. After the very first instance of congressional tomfoolery he could announce that there will be an announcement from the Rose Garden first thing at 8am tomorrow morning! NOW, the MSM has no choice. The President is speaking and they must be there.
8 o'clock the next morning he tells Americans just what went down in simple and understandable terms.
He lays out that McConnell or Ryan could have done 'ABC' and stopped this cold, or 'XYZ' and blamed it being out of their hands.
They know that with the pulpit of the Presidency he could and would DESTROY the Washington Cartel. In my not-so-humble opinion, they will kill him before they allow that to happen. Thank you Finny for giving me another opportunity to get things off my chest. They have been building for some time now FRiend!

Again, well said. Thanks for posting it!! I've pinged a few FRiends -- houeto's post is a good one worth reading.
Good post.
Cruz or lose. America.
You are quite correct. The GOP-e does not want to win— because they will then have no-one like Mitch and Ryan to manipulate and buy. Unprincipled and Un-American users of the body politic. They are the TICKS of the body politic.
