Washington Examiner ^ | 2/15/2016 | Paige Winfield Cunningham

Posted on 02/15/2016 10:09:57 AM PST by catnipman

Under a Trump presidency, Americans would lose their gun rights and religious liberty and see abortion rights dramatically expanded, Cruz said Monday morning on Fox News.

A vote for Ted Cruz is a vote to destroy America. Cruz is just as bad & radical as that nutcase, lunatic, ego-maniac, Glenn Beck is. The day that Ted Cruz accepted a POTUS endorsement fron Glenn Beck was the day, I said Cruz will never get my vote....ever!!!

Ted Cruz ia also a serial lie teller, and will do anything legal or illegal to become the GOP POTUS nominee. Worse....Cruz will never beat any Democrat...his base is too small. His crossover voter appeal is absolute zero!!! Hiw supporters must either be drinking tons of “Glenn Beck & Jim Jones” ‘Kool-Aid” or, they must be totally insane!!!

GO DONALD TRUMP!!!

>>Trump by the predicted 20 point differential, his campaign is all but over because of the bandwagon effect.<<

Come on now. lol. SC is not NH. NH is one of the most liberal/secular states in the union. Democrats in Texas are far more conservative than republicans in NH. Funny stuff.

Ted Cruz not only won Iowa (which polled heavily Trump) he pulled off a solid 3rd in a strongly liberal state. Pretty ded-gum good showing.

Furthermore, even if Cruz comes in 2nd in SC, the real show doesn't begin until Super Tuesday. SC is a winner take all...over 50%. No candidate will get over 50% to take all delegates. So, they'll be doled out accordingly.

Fun stuff. Aside all the ugliness in this primary season, I'm enjoying this horse race very much. Trump or Cruz...we all win. Bush, Kasich, Rubio, conservatives get the big ol goose egg.

On Sunday, church goers heard Cruz preach about the biblical role of government

Coincidentally (cough), many of Cruz/s political positions.....like economic libertarianism and TPP....also fit into the far-out Dominionist teachings Cruz learned form his father/s preaching.

The elder Cruz preaches to Dominionist audiences, and tells his congregants that Rev 5:10 teaches that Christians are divided into Kings and Priests,.....the kings (politicians) go out and conquer the financial world and bring the money back to the priests (pastors in contemporary terms).

Ted and Heidi Cruz/s economic libertarianism also dovetails nicely w/ globalist Goldman/Sachs---who financed Ted into office.....G/S is Heidi's $700,000 a year employer. So it looks like the Cruz/s have a head start in getting money back to the pastors.

Cruz/s dad has a goofy and weird history. He claims he was
ordained by some random church, went to a Bible college
that doesn/t exist, and that he is a Pastor who doesn/t
actually have a church.

When he takes a position on something like TPP, Cruz proceeds to educate everyone on the subject... Bless his heart, it/s nice of Cruz to remind us how smart he is......He obviously believes we/re too dumb to know.

LET US PRAY Lord deliver us from the delusional Harvard-educated Ivy League mind.

So, Trump actually names names of people he would consider.
Judges Sykes and Pryor.

Both judges are considered strong on both the issues raised.

Regarding Roe and Heller, both are on the ‘right’ side.

I am getting tired of this diversion. Trump named names. People say Trump won’t get specific enough. Well, he did. And now we get cloudy generalist accusations completely at odds with the details provided.

If you want to claim Trump puts our liberties at risk via SCOTUS, tell me Senator, what risks are presented by these two judges on the issues you raise? Not one of his supporters, not an underling. Senator Cruz, you raised the issue yourself. Tell us where in your legal mind Sykes and Pryor are wrong on these two matters?

“This site sure has changed in the 15 years I have been ehre.”

A lot of people feel burned by the Republican establishment. For six years, the GOP held the white House (Bush) and control of both houses of Congress. For the past two years, control of both houses once again. We’ve heard a lot of great “conservative” rhetoric, much more reliably conservative than what Trump is saying. But what did they do? Worse than nothing - they governed like liberals.

After that, you’re still looking to hear conservative rhetoric, and you’ll be satisfied? Not me, that’s why I’m looking as someone who’s results-oriented, and not part of the establishment in-crowd. Trump.

Trump is a big Govt. shill who thinks he is so smart he can make big govt work...unlike Stalin Lenin Brezhnev Gorbachev, Carter, Obama, and every other statist.

It is why he thinks all those big govt failures were because we have “stupid, truly stupid people running our govt” but its going to work so fantastic when super smart Donald Trump is in charge and trying to arrange society using the leverage of a big overarching federal govt...

Nobody is smart enough to arrange an entire society, force a population to bend their individual economic wills to obey the puppet master.

Big govt does not work...even if the smartest guy on the planet who “negotiates beautiful deals, truly beautiful deals, creates wonderful companies....” is the guy in charge

Neither Bernie Sanders nor Donald Trump is smart enough to pull off big government.

Donald Trump DID support Democrats who hate liberty with excessive amounts of money.

He gave $25K to Virginia’s governor, Terry McAuliffe, who tried to shut down Virginia concealed-carry reciprocity two months ago, but had to save face because of overwhelming grass roots complaints and a sure defeat by Virginia’s legislature.

Why does Trump support SO many pro-aborts and gun-grabbers, Mr. Catnip?

Also, Mr. Catnip person: please name a few conservative candidates or Tea Party candidates that Donald Trump got behind.

Thank you.

“Who did Trump mention?”

“TRUMP: Well, I can say this. If the President, and if I were President now I would certainly want to try and nominate a justice. I’m sure that, frankly, I’m absolutely sure that President Obama will try and do it. I hope that our Senate is going to be able — Mitch, and the entire group, is going to be able to do something about it.

In times of delay, we could have a Diane Sykes, or you could have a Bill Pryor, we have some fantastic people. But this is a tremendous blow to conservatism. It’s a tremendous blow, frankly to our country.”

“I’d say we conservatives have finally lost everything.”

Not everything.

After all, so many of us still remember how the heroic conservative Republican-led Congress stood up to Obama and stopped his agenda by passing a budget that eviscerated his illegal immigration policies, eliminated the energy-destroying EPA, eliminated the Marxist propaganda Education Department, eliminated the job-destroying Labor Department, eliminated the racist Civil Rights Commission, defunded the FCC until they give back control of the Internet to private industry, defunded Obamacare, defunded enforcement of 99% of Obama”s regulations and Executive Orders. It was a great day for America when that happened, when conservative Republicans stopped Obama’s agenda cold.

Given all of these amazing accomplishments by the conservative Republican party, it’s no wonder that the only thing that Freepers and rank-and-file Republicans everywhere care about is getting some more of them elected so that they can continue applying their conservative Republican principles to such good effect.

Donald Trump IS the establishment. He’s the Democrat establishment. He has heavily favored them, year after year.

He’s never been a Reagan conservative.

He may be against Bushies, sure, as are all Tea Party conservatives, but he’s altogether not a lover of liberty and the constitution.

Cruz poll numbers have got to be bad. But just as Trump exposed the lobbyist/donor audience, Cruz is showing who he really is. You know, it’s one thing to actually run on the issues - but Cruz can’t because Trump is already out in front of all of them. So, Cruz is left with lying through his teeth. The question is will anybody at this point believe him? Folks should just pull out their Bible and read it. Turn off Cruz for a day and contemplate what is going on.

The guy who prosecuted the Ten Commandments out of the courtroom.

You've into full retard mode.

Pryor is one of the most vehement opponents to Roe on the Federal bench and believes the Ten commandments should be displayed on government property.

Google it.
