Ted Cruz Thread

In the picture did you notice Jenny Beth Martin in the black dress in the background?  She heads up TP Patriots.  Whether you are a fan of TPP or not, they are an ongoing presence in the political arena. 

They and many other TP organizations keep the TP relevant in the political discourse.  We don't all agree on all things, but we remain a political force with clout!

Jenny Beth Martin is a sell out, a traitor to TEA, this needs to be stated every time she is mentioned.

I didn't notice her, but I saw Gary Bauer in foreground: right...  I forget the name of his organization at-the-moment.

Bauer founded  "The Family Research Council" but no longer is involved with it.  He is purely a political activist and speaker now.

BTW, The Family Research Council was taken over by the son of Dr. James Dobson.

All hell broke lose today on the Senate floor.....


By ERICA WERNER and LAURIE KELLMAN, Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — In a stunning attack on a leader of his own party, Republican Sen. Ted Cruz accused Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of lying to him and said he couldn't be trusted.

Cruz, a Texan who is running for president but ranks low in early polling, delivered the broadside in a speech on the Senate floor, an extraordinary departure from the norms of Senate behavior that demand courtesy and respect.

At issue are assurances Cruz claimed McConnell, R-Ky., had given that there was no deal to allow a vote to renew the federal Export-Import Bank — a little-known federal agency that has become a rallying cry for conservatives. Cruz rose to deliver his remarks moments after McConnell had lined up a vote on the Export-Import Bank for coming days.

"It saddens me to say this. I sat in my office, I told my staff the majority leader looked me in the eye and looked 54 Republicans in the eye. I cannot believe he would tell a flat-out lie, and I voted based on those assurances that he made to each and every one of us," Cruz said.

I tried and tried to get it copied via URL so that it would come directly visible on our forum.... but I failed.

It was one of the best speeches I have heard from Ted!!!!!!!

I grabbed it off YouTube. Looks like it gets "hijacked" by Brent Bozell. He's one on the good guys, but that's not what we wanna hear. There might be actual full copies on YouTube though. Worth hearing. This guy has to be the next Prez.
