Cruz needs to remember that kitty cats have nine lives!

I think this is amusing. Obama is not only smarter, more adult, more courageous, and more honest than Cruz–but he could also smack Ted-the-Doughboy’s lights right out. Too bad we’ll never get to see it.

And it is really gross how so many on the right seem to respect and even worship that bastard Putin. They really love the authoritarians.

But we will get to see Cruz v. Paul squirm-fest.

Eeewwwwwwwww…

"Fox Host Kimberly Guilfoyle last week wished Putin were charged with confronting ISIS because he would “get it done right.”

So, why doesn’t Putin confront ISIS? His “charge” is about the same as ours. His national interests are about the same as ours. His country is hated by ISIS, too. His ally, Syria, is under direct attack by ISIS!

Why doesn’t strongman Putin act?

Seems like a good time to start re-running the Daisy commercials. I would love to see someone from the media put the screws to guys like Cruz to explain in detail the entire situation in the Middle East. He probably doesn’t have a clue as to how complicated the situation is.

I suspect Cruz will always side with the aggressor. It’s his way of getting things done.

Why are all these Repuk’s yearning for a dictator when it appears to me they keep saying Obama is one???

nick1936 · August 31, 2014, 5:57pm

The Iraq Army just kicked ISIS 'S ass and retook one of their towns so it looks like Obama has made the right decision again.

Ted Cruz should campaign on a platform of going back into the Mid-east with troops and see how many votes he gets. My prediction is that both political parties will have a candidate run in the primaries that is advocating keeping American troops out of the Mideast. The question is will the Democrat be Clinton or someone else?

Teddy boy needs to move to Russia with all his Putin love

The thankfully non-existent liberal equivalent to Fox News is pushing the following story line:

Cuban immigrant pines for leaders like Stalin and Castro

fiftygigs · August 31, 2014, 6:01pm

“…We ought to bomb them back to the Stone Age…”

Only one problem – that strategy doesn’t work. But I guess one has to be an American to know that.

midnight_rambler · August 31, 2014, 6:03pm

And Putin did such a good job against Islamist extremists in Chechnya too!

dave_adams · August 31, 2014, 6:06pm

Yeah but the question is, is Obama the Kitty Cat of Tyrants or the Tyrant of Kitty Cats?

darrtown · August 31, 2014, 6:07pm

And they have claws.

dave_adams · August 31, 2014, 6:07pm

What they yearn for is a Republican Dictator.

darrtown · August 31, 2014, 6:12pm

Seems Cruz is in favor of just tossing nukes willy nilly to solve everyone’s problems all at the same time. Cruz and Guilfoyle are both right wingers, No? WHY the heck are they so damned enamored with a COMMUNIST then??? Putin, lets remember, headed up the KGB during the end of the Soviet era in Russia. He’s a COMMUNIST???
