A very good point. I was thinking the same thing, though, they are probably still trying to put their lives back together.

Hillary, die Kriegstreiberin, is out there, HEADS UP!

“How did someone with so much promise, a great resume turn out to be such a nightmare?”

All of that was constructed image. Calculated disinformation.

Cruz is a proxy for the Bush machine. A constructed foil for the establishment, and a false sanctuary for conservatives. As Lenin said, “The best way to control the opposition is to lead it ourselves.”

Cruz does not add up except as a deception.

“I would like to see Conservatives extend an olive branch to Cruz; but we really cannot do so, until he is able to discuss events in a rational manner.”

That burden is on him. It is his camp making the jackass claim that rejecting “Ted” (not his real name) is rejecting God.

Screw him. Let him come, with some humility, repentance, and an attitude adjustment, or just stay in the corner he has painted himself into.

"... “end-time transfer of wealth” from wicked people to the righteous."

Sounds sort of schizophrenic.

Who needs money at a time like that?

I think that they’re both delusional.

Too bad Cruz didn’t take the million and build himself a billions dollar business. That done, he could have THEN successfully run for president. This past year, he’s had a great mentor in his midst. Too bad he reviled him.

Thank you. I appreciate the mention.

If you have a black background selected on your browser, you can right click view, and see the ash detail much better.

On a white background it is overpowered by the glare.

At any rate, I’m glad you enjoyed the graphic.

While I always thought it fit Tead, over the last few weeks it has seemed to fit like a glove.

Take care.

He doesn't know how to lose. Remember, this is a guy who didn't play sports -- didn't like sports -- as a kid.

The guy became an odd fish because his Dad took off and didn't even bother to leave behind a baseball mitt or basketball ball and ring hoop.

Sad.

Very perceptive. Yes, I think it's true. As soon as Cruz got the spotlight, he couldn't measure up.

Of course, who could against a master promoter like Trump? And after Wisconsin, the outlook for Cruz was rather grim anyway.

His downfall was certain given his inexperience, lack of charm with the press, and his inability to say anything meaningful other than Trump did this and Trump did that.

Great observation about why Greta was persona non grata for Cruz.

I guy like Cruz doesn't want anybody fact checking him because his schtick is to throw out lots of lies to make him sound super smart.

Greta and other people like John Dickerson found out what he was doing and trapped Lyin' Ted.

Hey, hey, Psalm 144 two great posts about the Cruzer man, one self-righteous puppy. He who has not sinned, throw the first stone at Donald and Fox.
