It’s all the Cruz’ from crazy Dad to outrageous Ted to Rick Tyler. Why would anyone think it’s not a dirty trick? And, Rubio, of course couldn’t be better cast as the chump.

‘Primary is over so of COURSE, I’ll apologize!’ Now onto the next one…

Carson is quitting and Rubio hates the bible. C’mon Cruz, what have you got in store for the Donald? Or is he out of bounds, since you want the Veep job with him?

Not impressed by our journalists-in-training. Meanwhile, Cruz is going full-nasty. His dirty tricks in South Carolina didn’t work, either. What a horrible man.

Well, what version of the Bible was it? Becase if it was the New American Standard, everyone knows that’s Satan’s bible of choice: http://www.jesusisprecious.org/bible/nasb/beware_of_satans_version.htm

The fish rots from the head down. More proof that Cruz has brought scumbaggery to a vile level that would take Karl Rove’s breath away. What a cockroach.

Did somebody mention…Satan?

Can you imagine ‘slipping the surly bonds of earth’ and seeing the face of Ted?

dnl · February 22, 2016, 4:19pm

…or maybe the TeaXian version , The Go$pel of Pro$perity where Je$u$ tumped over the money changers table ? Not for defiling the temple, but for not charging a high enough exchange rate.

Ted Cruz is probably the worst person to ever run for president. I’d sooner vote for George Wallace or John Breckinridge.

sonsofares · February 22, 2016, 4:23pm

Let’s hope President Cruz will bring back spectral evidence!

mattinpa · February 22, 2016, 4:26pm

People do bad things for all kinds of reasons. And I think Cruz does what he does because of a deep, deep contempt for the rest of humanity. Wallace was deluded by a false worldview he eventually saw through and repudiated. But I don’t think Cruz will ever stop being a sociopath who doesn’t care whom he hurts—that’s pretty much baked in IMHO.

That’s why Poo-bio will be a great POTUS! He gets all his answers from fictional books. That’s how he’ll know how to beat Voldemort when he comes around.

imkmu3 · February 22, 2016, 4:27pm

I’d forgotten all about that. And strangely, I’m glad I did.

intelliwriter · February 22, 2016, 4:35pm

Another day, another smear, another Cruz apology. Let’s hope he drops out soon or this could get boring quick.

benthere · February 22, 2016, 4:35pm

All this from Cruz and his minions who protest that we must return to our Judeo-Christian ethics. Stunning!!

rich_in_nj · February 22, 2016, 4:37pm

Fox host Martha MacCallum asked Tyler why he would post something like that because the comments seemed so “preposterous” from a Republican candidate.

Yes, the policies of a Republican are an anathema to anything in the Bible, but their rhetoric is designed to obfuscate that fact.

canary02 · February 22, 2016, 4:38pm

Don’t forget his dirty trick on Ben Carson in Iowa… This is apparently, the Cruz campaign style: anything goes and apologize later. In what realm does such deceit and lack of trustworthiness work?
