Ted Cruz on senate floor............ I don't trust republicans
« on: May 23, 2013, 10:45:32 PM »
Finally someone speaks against the rinos.    There is a big difference between conservatives and republicans.    I sometimes feel I am watching the harlem globetrotters (democrats) against the Washington generals (rinos).    We all know the outcome of democrat light verses democrats...........   Democrats win.

Welcome to the party, Mr. Cruz. Better late than never, I always say.

What do you mean?

Cruz only just became a Senator this January and he has spoken out a lot and taken on John McCain (who hates his guts) more than once.

I'm very impressed by him.

Def6 was welcoming Senator Cruz to the growing group of conservatives who declare distrust for the RNC. I'm part of it too.

Senator Cruz, God bless him, went to DC as an idealist.  He's finding out how corrupt the system really is--in BOTH parties.

Hopefully he won't let the system beat him down, but it looks like he's had his eyes opened, and he doesn't like what he sees. 

Join the club, Senator.

I dunno, Sparky.  After the primary where he had to defeat the democrat and the establishment candidate, I think he might have had a pretty good idea of what he was walking into.

C.S. Lewis

A community may possess all the necessary moral qualifications, in so high a degree, as to be capable of self-government under the most adverse circumstances; while, on the other hand, another may be so sunk in ignorance and vice, as to be incapable of forming a conception of liberty, or of living, even when most favored by circumstances, under any other than an absolute and despotic government.

Yeah, but you really don't get the stink of D.C. in your blood until you actually take the oath of office and see Dingy Harry leaving his slime trail up and down the Senate chamber floor.
