What does Ted Cruz stand for in politics?

Here's a quick look at where Cruz stands on some of the key issues:

Common Core: End it

Obamacare: Repeal it

Immigration: Opposes efforts to allow authorized immigrants legally remain in the Untied States. He supports increased security along the country's southern border with Mexico.

Gay marriage: He opposes gay marriage and says marriage is between one man and one woman. He thinks states that weren't specifically listed in the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling that legalized same-sex marriage should oppose the high court's ruling. He says individual states should be define marriage for themselves.

Abortion: Strictly opposes abortions and opposes any federal funding going to Planned Parenthood.

I second that hearty AMEN! I used to live on FR. Now I can only take the Trump hubris for very short periods. The new signups that agitate are legion.

These are two stiffs, right? I can believe the enthusiasm so folks have for one or the other. At most it should be who is the least sadly bizarre. But it’s like to be critical of one you have to really dig the other or something. That’s nuts.

It’s all show. Like Cruz.

And the reality star who has changed parties at least 5 times isn't all "show"? LOL

I third that...

Now Alan Grayson and Alan Colmes are being used by some Trump supporters as purveyors of truth and honesty...sick.

I’ll save you the irritation...but the person using them as “credible” has a March 2016 sign-up date.

Curious.

Are you talking about the same Obama care that he stood up to his own party against?”

The tired old “Mr. Cruz Goes To Washington” meme.

http://humanevents.com/2013/10/30/thank-these-republicans-for-obamacare/

“By contrast, McConnell not only voted against Obamacare, but presided over a Senate minority in which every single Republican voted against Obamacare, even that idiot McCain. Kentucky only seems like a red state because McConnell keeps winning elections there: It went for Clinton twice and has had a solid run of Democratic governors since 1947, interrupted by one-term Republican governors only twice in 66 years.”

Of course it’s not really a brave stand when you know the enemy has the votes because you booted the Congress and WH.

It’s all show. Like Cruz.


None of this, BTW, disputes what I posted

Pardon my naïveté but what exactly does “pinging Jim” refer to? I think I know but want to be sure
