I will bet that 98% of your responses will be three single syllabic responses, slightly beyond grunts and farts (how could distinguish between the two?). This is not of the FreeRepublic of old, that is gone forever. This is the first election of the Idiocracy Era and both sides are in full cry. This is exactly what the media has tried to fashion.
May the media go to hell, and those of you idiots you follow them blindly, may you follow.
Amen.
So everybody used to agree with you but now some people do not? Horrors!
Occasional bouts of madness are required, sooner or later the pendulum will swing and we’ll be back to the banality of the “All Your Base” days.
What has happened to principled conservative Ted Cruz? Cruz standing with Barack Obama & Goldman Sachs to enable Obama’s secret trade agenda? Carnac Cruz smearing his opponent about what MAY be in his taxes? Occupy Ted standing with Bill Ayers and the violent communists who attacked conservatives in Chicago?
FR conservatives didn’t leave Ted Cruz. Climbing careerist Ted Cruz left us.
If you can judge a man by his friends, Cruz is a GOP Conservative, just like Lindsey Graham, Jeb Bush, Carly Fiorina and Mitt Romney.
Sorry, if that's being a Conservative, then I guess I'm not.
This, or something very similar, has been posted here before.
I loathe Trump but I’ll vote for him for the following reasons; Dole, Bush I, McCain, Bush II and Romney. Someone has to throw a cherry bomb into the GOP-e’s punchbowl and I don’t see a better way than to elect the Horse’s Ass Trump and let him destroy as much of the unresponsive republican party establishment as possible. Cruz is a good man and if there is ever a responsive party behind him, I’ll be happy to vote for him.
I’ve been a Freeper since the Clinton impeachment. You haven’t seen a flame war.
Emotion has overtaken reason.
What you are saying would be true if that were all we knew about Ted Cruz. He does have decent conservative creds. But he lies every time he speaks on national TV. He runs a dishonest campaign. He is Christian-creepy, not Christian good. (He affects the cadence and speech of a phony televangelist and he claims Gd gives himself victory in primaries, which is like saying Gd doesn’t care for your opponents.)
Especially his LIES. They are as provable as Hillary’s. Where have YOU been that you don’t see his fall from grace?
Except he is not eligible. Cuban father born in Canada.
Sorry but after being against having a president that was born in Kenya of a British father I can not just turn on a dime and say because it is someone on the Republican side that it is ok.
He is not a constitutional candidate and he knows it. That is enough to make me say no to him for president.
Any other office I would consider, with caution because I flat do not trust lawyers and do not vote for them except as last resort. Still I would consider it. But not for president.
I’m sorry you think that Trump supporters are stupid. Maybe some day, when you think back on this time in your life, perhaps while basking in the glory of THE WALL, you will realize that we were all in it together all along, and that some people just saw through Ted’s creepy, phony, self-serving act. I mean, it can’t be long from now, with Bush people in his crew, Lindsey Graham endorsements, and laying the blame for leftist BLM riots at the feet of Trump.... the ~17% of people or so who still support Cruz have to have a breaking point, and surely they will reach it soon. Maybe they donated a lot of money to him or something, and they just don’t want to see, but sooner or later, at the rate Ted is decloaking, even the most die-hard believers will, as you say, “wake up”.
Good luck and best wishes!
>I don’t understand how otherwise intelligent people can fall for the likes of Donald Trump
Independent thought is not a one size fits all sort of thing.
Bttt
Senator Helms, who was a republican in the days when the South considered a Republican one level better than a pedophile, accomplished much more and in fact made the Republican Party respected in NC.
The bottom line is that Cruz can not accomplish any of his promises, otherwise he would have done more than he has done.
Yes he says the right things. But you can find someone like him in any country store, on the BS bench.
Give us one example of a conservative bill Cruz has passed in the Senate?
The latest Trump bashing goes like this: the evidence clearly shows, Trump has consistently supported establishment candidates, has given thousands of dollars to entrenched politicians, and has surrounded himself with long-time Republican establishment operatives....
Keep in mind, all that time he was donating, Trump was not running for anything. He was using politicians to get business done.
The calculating pols knew this, so Trump was on the politicians/ hit list as a sucker who/d write a check, no questions asked.....political extortion at its finest.
BTW, these same pols are lying low ....maybe running scared now.... b/c I would not be surprised if the candidates confided in Donald about their sordid love life, spilled damaging opposition research WRT their opponents and damning stuff about well-known pols---in order to get bigger donations.
They/re wishing now they hadn't said the things they did.......b/c Donald knows plenty.
========================================
BTW, did you notice you/re true blue conservative Cruz is getting ready to ally w/ the same people who have lacerated, isolated, and demeaned conservatives these past years? Getting his sorry carcass into the Oval Office is Cruz/s main concern....not conservatism.
TRUMP TRUMP TRUMP
He is all we GOT GOT GOT
Better then clinton any day.
Ted Cruz, The Convenient Conservative Constitutionalist, needs a refresher course in Free Speech and the First Amendment.
