[Forward the Light Brigade]

Sorry, I am a victim of the California Education system—I am a crappy speller. I think Rudy would offer little to Trump—and Carly is too much in the tank with Ted Cruz. I would like to see her as Governor of California. As for the Charge of the light brigade—I have memorized the whole poem! Have you?

[trisham]

I agree. Cruz is too much of a narcissist to recognize any limits to his perfection. He and his father believe that he is the “anointed one”

Ted Cruz

---

Father: Rafael Bienvenido Cruz
Cruz left the Roman Catholic Church in 1975 and became a born-again Christian after attending a Bible study with a colleague. Explaining his conversion, Cruz stated in an interview with The National Review, “The people at the Bible study had a peace that I could not understand, this peace in the midst of trouble. I knew I needed to find that peace by finding Jesus Christ.” Following his conversion, his son and wife also became born-again Christians. In the Cruz home, talk at dinner time was frequently about the Bible.[20]
Cruz works from his home in Carrollton, Texas, a suburb of Dallas, as a traveling preacher[21][22] and public speaker, campaigning as a surrogate for his son during the 2016 Presidential campaign season.[23][24] In a 2014 Associated Press story, Cruz was quoted as saying, “I have a burden for this country and I feel that we cannot sit silent.” He went on to say that he feels “It’s time we stop being politically correct and start being biblically correct.”[24]
About his political involvements in the 1980s, Cruz reflected, “I was on the state board of the Religious Roundtable, a Christian and Jewish religious organization that worked to elect Ronald Reagan.” At the time, he told his son, “God has destined you for greatness.”[23][25]
At the New Beginnings Church in Irving, Texas, in August 2012, Cruz delivered a sermon where he described his son’s senatorial campaign as taking place within a context where Christian “kings” were anointed to preside over an “end-time transfer of wealth” from wicked people to the righteous. Cruz urged the congregation to “tithe mightily” to achieve that result.[26] During an interview conducted by the Christian Post in 2014, Cruz stated, “I think we cannot separate politics and religion; they are interrelated. They’ve always been interrelated.”[27] Salon described Cruz as a “Dominionist, devoted to a movement that finds in Genesis a mandate that ‘men of faith’ seize control of public institutions and govern by biblical principle.”[28]

Cruz’s father is creepy as is his son. While I don’t necessarily believe the National Enquirer, he certainly was a proponent of Castro - even in the United States.

I don’t understand Cruz’s parentage - it is as mixed up as Obama’s - hidden, obfuscated and lied about. The Donald meanwhile, has a Scottish-American mother who simply raised children and an American father. I’m sick of these mutts - I long for two parents born on American soil and lovers of America. Trump comes closest to this bill.

Politically appropriate match is about the nicest thing I can say given her record:

• Fiorina slams Cruz as inconsistent ff 1:00

  "I would say that Ted Cruz is just like any other politician. He says one thing in Manhattan. He says another thing in Iowa. He says whatever he needs to say to get elected and then he's going to do as he pleases. I think the American people are tired of the political class that promises much and delivers much of the same."

• "there is no job that is America's God-given right anymore."

• if you don’t have a room full of “diversity” when making an important decision, you will not get the decision right. (ff 9:43 - 13:00) Fiorina said she supports the DREAM Act

• In February 2013, when the Gang of 8 released the worst comprehensive amnesty bill of our time, Carly was one of its biggest cheerleaders on the Sunday shows.

• She also accused some opponents of amnesty as taking on a racist tone.

• Carly also opposed fixing the birthright citizenship loophole for illegal aliens and referred to it as an “emotional distraction.”

• Fiorina said there is scientific consensus that climate change is real and caused by humans

• Supports Common Core / No Child Left Behind was positive

• Buzzfeed: Audio And Video Of Carly Fiorina’s Forceful Praise Of Hillary Clinton In 2008

• In the heat of the 2011 debt ceiling fight, when Carly was the Vice Chair of the NRSC and vouching for the positions of Mitch McConnell, she said that she disagrees with conservatives.

• Carly Fiorina Pushing Anti-Privacy Bill

  On "'Meet the Press', she called upon Congress to pass the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act. The bill would immunize companies like Google from lawsuits resulting from consumer information shared with government. The effect would be a massive institutional rollback of personal privacy.

• WashingtonExaminer:

  “There is a level of collaboration that’s required between the private sector and the public sector to detect and repel attacks,” Fiorina said on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. “That requires an act of Congress. There is a bill that’s been languishing, frankly, in Congress for several years now. We need to get that bill passed so that level of collaboration is possible.” "Outside of passing the cyberbill, Fiorina said, “It’s important to recognize that these cyberattacks that have been going on against the federal government systems, none of those are a surprise … We’ve known for over a decade the Chinese were coming after our most important systems."

  ****** Fiorina majored in medieval history at Stanford yet weeks after 9/11 claimed in a direct quote of Fiorina's text comprising the last 500 words of a 3,600-word speech given on September 26, 2001 about Islamic civilization - "There was once a civilization that was the greatest in the world." As disgusting as the timing of that September 2001 declaration was, it clearly was not the only time Fiorina spoke of Islam with resplendent admiration.... Carly Fiorina, “Gaslighting”, Islam, Her Relationship To Clinton Global Initiative, and Progressive Agenda…

  "Please read the

• entire speech

  and pay close attention to the closing paragraphs. What you will note is an almost eerie similarity to current Secretary of State John Kerry vis-a-vis the “Jobs for Jihad” program he, and his globalist co-horts, have been advocating for the past three years.

  Read everything written by Fiorina and then ...

• reference/remember the words used by State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf – they are almost identical.

  Next example – look at the following reception by

  ***** Fiorina Named 19th Worst CEO of ALL Time. In May 2009, Portfolio compiled lists of the 20 best and 20 worst CEOs ever. Fiorina was 19th on the "Worst CEOs" list, with the magazine writing, "A consummate self-promoter, Fiorina was busy pontificating on the lecture circuit and posing for magazine covers while her company floundered. She paid herself handsome bonuses and perks while laying off thousands of employees to cut costs. The merger Fiorina orchestrated with Compaq in 2002 was widely seen as a failure. She was ousted in 2005." Portfolio also noted that HP stock lost half its value while Fiorina was CEO. [Porfolio, 5/09]

Lyin’ Ted/Ugh..That Face 2016! We can’t lose!

[John W]

Damn! Impressive! Have you ever been wrong about anything?

[trisham]

I couldn’t agree more, Miss M. I couldn’t agree more.

[Carry me back]

A guy who cant win primaries. Ted the nut, should shut up and go home. Its all about him, so he ll continue to drag America through the mud. Open borders Ted.

[Carry me back]

Its seems like Cruz is being blackmailed, for the payoffs

[Wpin]

Why is this even a story? The lunatic has lost the nomination...his only plan is to deprive the people of their power and steal it. But, I have a feeling people are really beginning to get disgusted with him now.

[AllAmericanGirl44]

Indeed.

Jeez, little wormy Jeff Roe, right in the stink of it all.

Desperation looks so bad

[Psalm 144]

Awesome. I like it! A worthy match indeed.

[golux]

Good! I like her. She’s 100% common sense, she’s a self-made woman, and I can see her taking a positon of power with patriotic stride.

[DoughtyOne]

Always a good idea to have someone close to you, more annoying than you are, so folks won’t focus on you.

Yep, I can see Ted picking Carly.

Besides, she’s more masculine than he is, and he’s more feminine than she is/

[Grampa Dave]

Quiet the real resume!

Thanks for posting it!

[MIA_eccl1212]

the bad news for carly is this...
being on Ted’s SHORT list today, is no guarantee that once on that SHORT list, if Teddy gets what he wants, the same person might be on his SH _ T list the following day.
Ted’s a liar, he cheats and he stinks like a warm cow pie. He sends women checks for 500,000, for no apparent reason, but like everything else he does, it looks and smells like a payoff or coverup.

No more dirty TED. He CANNOT and MUST NOT be trustTED.
Tomorrow is the equivalent of custer’s last stand... and TED is getting custered... aka “shlonged” big time, New York style.

[MIA_eccl1212]

yup... he did the deeds, now he owes them the MONEY.

[mrpotatohead]

I think you have her confused with Mr. Trump.

[nopardons]

I memorized that poem when I was ten, which is probably decades older than when you were born! And yes, I can still say it from memory.

You're the one who proposed all of those people; just YOU! None of whom make any sense at all. Neither does wanting iCarly for governor make any sense either!

[austinaero]

“she’s a self-made woman,”

What did she make? She worked FOR someone else, never for herself. She has always been collecting a check. If that’s self-made then I should be running!
