Cruz doesn’t want to play the gotcha game. He’s not like that. Anyone can see that.

“And he’s endured a tax from the left,”

I think your proofreading needs a little brushing up…

It’s those tax and spend liberals, again. And of course, the liberals control the media, so there you have it.

The media ‘gotcha game’ that is so prominent on the right is what you say when you are wrong, have no answer, or caught lying.

Another creep from Texas. The state never seems to run out of sociopaths. Apologies to Austin.

Shorter Cruz- I agree with everything Gaffney says because I am as batshit crazy as him.

Ok, Teddy, you will say THIS:

“…because he speaks out against, for example, the political correctness of the Obama administration that effectively gets in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood.”

but you won’t say Gaffney is an Islamaphobe…because? Oh, yeah, because you want to but it won’t play well is middle America. Your character, Teddy, is defined by those with whom you surround yourself …(gaffney).

Well. Haven’t we all endured a tax from the left at one point during our lives? :wink:

My guess would be that the author is using voice recognition software. But that’s all the more reason to proofread.

He doesn’t take everything his Religious Freedom advisor, Satan, says either. No big liar and sinner does.

Trump doesn’t take everything his foreign policy advisor, Denis Rodman, says either.

Ted Cruz: Defending the Indefensible for Years and Years

Isn’t Frank Gaffney tied to anti Islamic billionaires? If so you know the reason Cruz has embraced him,even if he is as crazy as a pet coon.

This is the problem of having CNN interview Cruz: they just go for the easy questions. Why not ask Cruz about Frank Gaffney accusing Grover Norquist of having a relationship with the Muslim Brotherhood? Accusing Clinton aide Huma Abedin of being a front for the Muslim Brotherhood? Or what is his evidence that Obama and Clinton being in bed with the Muslim Brotherhood? What’s the evidence?

I’m suprised that Blitzer didn’t question Cruz about him not vetting Gaffney when he said that he didn’t know what Gaffney said in 2009 about Obama being a “Muslim” president. Gaffney is, in effect, calling Obama a traitor.What’s the evidence?

Cruz is allowed to spout political season propaganda and bullshit.

Would that be “traitorous”? I thought the US Constitution, in effect, said religion is not an issue.

Frank Gaffney a very narrow minded one trick pony who shouldn’t be allowed to advise about trash pickup. He is a has been and has nothing new to say. Ted Cruz is wannabe at yet has nothing good to say. A bible thumping hypocrite.
