The progressive elites will try to do to Cruz what they did to Abbott
The American mainstream media, the Republican Party establishment and the Democratic Party are determined that Ted Cruz not be sworn in as the 45th president.
Anyone with that opposition must be formidable.
That he is. Campaigning against Federal ethanol subsidies in Iowa, a major corn producing state, and against all poll predictions, Cruz defeated the media's favourite, Donald Trump, receiving more votes than any Republican candidate ever had. Cruz is the candidate most motivated by his attachment to traditional American principles. For his opponents, these are principles to which lip service only should be accorded these days. But the principles under which a Cruz administration would operate are the very ones on which the American Republic was founded.
Cruz does not merely mouth the proposition that all men have been endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, he lives by this. As Texas Solicitor General he had been one of America's most successful public constitutional lawyers, with a string of successes in the Supreme Court. Having memorised it while still a schoolboy, the Constitution remains his guide to the good governance of the Union. By this he means the Constitution according to the original intention of the Founding Fathers, not that fictional 'living organism' which is the tool of activist judges who claim it means whatever they want it to mean.

Doesn't matter - it was over for Cruz when he pulled that Carson crap!
Bringing up crucifiction in defence if Ted is literally offensive.
Ted Cruz is not Jesus Christ, and citizens not preferring him does not make him a sacrificial lamb.
At what point does the absurdity become over the top even to a Cruz supporter, or is that even possible?
Forget the progressives. The President Camacho wing of the Republican party is doing a fine job over here.
Wah wah wah. He faithfully reported what he heard on CNN. Shut your mouth, lest you further prove this country has descended into a real life Idiocracy.
Ted Cruz has done his homework, he's advocates for conservative, free market principles and he understands the issues.
Watch how Ted Cruz explains to an angry farmer, who eventually quiets down to listen, how he is going to help farmers.
All subsidies - across the board - oil, gas, wind, solar, ethanol are gone; EPA fuel blend, gone.
Death tax, gone.
Happy Iowan: How Cruz "Crushed" Ethanol [and helps farmers] - "Hot d*mn!" a gentleman shouted from the back of the room. Feb 3rd FR THREAD
And which one is that? We are already into our eighth year of President Camacho.
I assume you don't mean Trump. Trump BUILDS things, has intelligent and successful children who contribute to society, and comes up with solutions to things.
Cruz ain't Christ and Trump ain't Satan.
The author is not equating Cruz with Christ. You know perfectly well that we use the term “crucify” to describe a person who is being persecuted, severely attached, thrown under the bus etc.
Ted is being persecuted?
That is absurd.
After Iowa we were told “Put on your big boys pants”. If you can’t take the heat get out of the kitchen.
Media favorite Trump?
Cruz had a whopping 200 people at his Myrtle Beach rally yesterday.
While Trump has thousands in Pendleton SC.
But I will say the Super Pac's have gone after Cruz with non stop commercials. Showing all of Cruz's lies on Immigrations B-1 Visas and Eminent Domain he supported in Senate Debate
Well Rush clearly said yesterday if conservatism is your thing Cruz is your guy. Levin ripped Trump yesterday for being a hair to the right of Bernie. They both called the Carson riff a nothing burger.
I can’t get past the creEpiness of Ted.
It’s a play on words “Cruzify”. A joke. No one thinks he’s Jesus. Lot’s of people get crucified who aren’the Jesus. In fact, it’s happening in the ME today.
Trump supporters are so easily offended when conservatives are praised. Why so?
Laughing again. Cruz is the only candidate in the race with conservative principles he lives by. But I guess Rush clearly saying so yesterday clearly means he is now establishment.
In the meantime Trump has proved his Christianity is limited to holding an unread Bible.
“if conservatism is your thing Cruz is your guy”
if winning the election is your thing Trump is your guy
