Yep. I’ve sparred with those guys on the internet. The best poly is to laugh at them and conceal carry.

“If you’re going to badmouth Cruz, don’t do it on FR!” - Jim Robinson on http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3687890/posts

Never Cruzers are as bad as Never Trumpers, as bad as the leftists that Ted Cruz is encouraging us to treat light-heartedly. They’re sad and pathetic little people.

Don’t mud wrestle with a pig stuff..

Partner, it is great advice since these far left Rats are so upset at our great President Trump. Thanks for this comment.

That, I agree with. But we make the mistake of electing the same, worthless RHINOs every single time.

The primaries are long over, and Ted is still counseling a non confrontational policy with the hard left.

The policy he advocates now validates every criticism he received in the election.

No I don’t join him in pacifist subservience.

“When one party is going nuts, we gotta respond with joy, we gotta respond with smiles,” he added.
***********
Smiles and gimmicks won’t do it. Neither will personal attacks and rage of our own. We need to respond with issues and truth, backed by research and presented by good talking points.

And he barely squeaked by Whitey O’Rourke because of this kind of position.

Cruz has to be replaced in order for the Republicans to hold that Senate seat long term. Texas is not Massachusetts, and you can’t hold it with a Massachusetts style Republican.

They are his words. They are facts. Do you want them buried?

It is you who sees a recounting of his history as a smear.

The only time Liberals laugh and smile is when they imagine confiscating our guns.

You said, “Traitor. No forgiveness ever.”

The founder of this site said, “If you’re going to badmouth Cruz, don’t do it on FR.”

It’s probably time for you to defer to Jim Robinson, rather than to your bitterness.

You miss the point.

I smile as I wear my red Trump cap.

Happy greetings:

Another great MAGA day!

Have a nice MAGA day!

I love Ted; he’s one of the best. But we need to be willing to combat the left aggressively, even as we’re smiling at them.

Study Alinsky. Use it against them. Do it with a smile.

What bitterness is that, Theo? Kinda unhappy that you’d employ a smarmy implication to disparage me.

Hit them back when they hit you and do it with a smile, time and again, but doing nothing like Bush is not an option. Bush won because the two opponents he faced were so obnoxious the country couldn’t stand them and by default we got him and he proved you cannot let them pummel you without a response and be successful.

Rove you are an idiot! Bush Republicanism is a LOSER!

Again, you said, “Traitor. No forgiveness ever.”

Those are the words of someone who holds a grudge, i.e., someone who is bitter.

I implore you to embrace Jim’s request to just let such bitterness go. Move on. Let’s fight the enemy, not each other.

The professional political system, as it has existed, has been a filtering system used and meant only to ensure that no one was allowed near any real position of power unless they were proven loyal to the money that got them there.
