Cruz Nails it Answering Pro-Gay Reporter
« on: May 23, 2015, 02:31:17 PM »
Okay, so he's only a one-term Senator like someone else we know. But the man doesn't need cue cards or teleprompters to really put it to one of those annoying reporters who demand answers to questions furthering their own agendas.

Let me ask a question. Is there something about the left, and I am going to put the media in this category, that is obsessed with sex? Why is it the only question you want to ask concerns homosexuals? OK, you can ask those questions over and over and over again. I recognize that you’re reading questions from MSNBC.

Finally, a politician, giving a great answer & not paying attention to the PC rules!

I'd really like to get behind Cruz.  Why, Ted, did you vote for fast-track authority & give full support to Trans Pacific partnership?  These politicians can't learn from history, look how NAFTA turned out for American jobs.

Looks like the last viable candidate standing up for Constitutional principles is Rand Paul.

...hmmm there are articles stating that Paul supported the TPP.  I tried looking up the bill on gov.track to see the actual vote, but was unable to find it.

Good question though, why oh why did Cruz support the TPP??  I am a huge Cruz fan, but this was a red flag for me; especially since he is from Texas and Perry was involved in the Trans Texas Corridor.  I'm not so sure now that Cruz isn't linked to that as well.
I believe in the United States of America as a government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed, a democracy in a republic, a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it, to support its Constitution, to obey its laws, to respect its flag, and to defend it against all enemies.

According to this article, there were only 5 Republican Senators that voted no, and Rand was one of them.
