I’m happy for Earnest — He’s had a good week —
More jollies in 7 days than he’s had in a long time —

                 Thanks Wingnuts ! !

Right-wing reactionaries don’t grok irony. Their brains aren’t wired for it.

There are marketing data that support your opinion.

It wouldn’t be ironic. It would be proof that the birther thing was always about race though. He’s black and has a funny sounding name, clearly he must be an ‘other’. But you know, Cruz is a lily white guy. He’s a-okay.

A narcissistic real estate developer who’s not qualified to run for president says Canadian born right winger is not qualified to run for president. It doesn’t get much better.

“[Cruz] wasn’t actually born in the United States and only 18 months ago renounced his Canadian citizenship.”

Can we trade Cruz and Bieber for Justin Trudeau and a single-payer system to be named later?

Don’t talk too high-toned, Josh. Three-quarters of his backers think ‘ironic’ is a kind of vitamin.

And along with Justin we get his mom Margaret who knew how to kick up her heels once upon a time.

There’d be no irony in it. It would be telling…not ironic.

If Rafael Cruz is elected President, a lot of people will likely die as a result of legislation he signs into law.

Ironic isn’t the word I’d use.

I wouldn’t put it that crudely, but Mick Jagger made it irresistible.

This is the proper reaction, poke fun, move on.

Unlike Grayson in Florida who says he can’t wait to drop a lawsuit challenging Cruz’s ability to be president.

If we can’t win by explaining to the American public why HRC’s policies are better than Ted Cruz’s? Well then, we don’t deserve to win.

Frankly its a pretty stupid argument even if it were technically correct. The guy was born there, but had nothing to do with Canada, has lived here all his life, and has always been an American. Why shouldn’t he be eligible to be President?
