Set Your “Cruz” Control

(Sound of corks popping…..idle chatter…….applause…….)

It is official!  The 2016 campaign season has begun!  (Please put your brain in neutral and sit back).

Ted Cruz has announced his candidacy for the GOP nomination before a captive audience (attendance mandatory or be fined) at Liberty University.  During his drawn out speech we got our first political slogan of the 2016 election season……”Reignite the promise of America”…….it will be the perfect slogan….why?  There is no consensus on what the term means….leave it to the imagination of the weak minded and easily manipulated.

“I believe God isn’t done with America yet,” Mr. Cruz said during a speech at Liberty University, sending a strong signal that he plans to compete for the evangelical Christians that traditionally play a big role in the GOP nomination race.

“I believe in you. I believe in the power of millions of courageous conservatives rising up to reignite the promise in America,” he said. “And that is why today I am announcing that I am running for president of the United States.”

His little speech did one thing…..made me yawn……he went on and on and we now know what he is against…..marriage equality, immigration reform, Obamacare, the IRS, Communist and finally…..LOGIC!

All that is just peachy….we know what he is against……but what is he for?  What are his alternatives to all those things?  All I heard was his support for a flat tax……then NOTHING!

Cruz is the first to announce for one reason…..he can control the media for the next couple of weeks….plus he will be the center of attention…..the spotlight is his desire and now he has it….at least for awhile…..

Keep in mind…..”Reignite The Promise Of America”………maybe he will define this soon…..but do not hold your breath…….it is what it is….a slogan……

So my friends, hold on to your genitals you are about to be beat over the head with Cruz stories for the next couple of weeks….and after all that there is one thing for certain……

He will NOT be your GOP nominee!

There is one thing to be sure of……Cruz is about himself….never about the country…….he may lose but he will NOT go away……and that is the pathetic part.

2016 Is A One Man Race

The Dems have their one woman race (at least for now) and now the GOP has there single candidate……Good Ole Boy Ted Cruz (YAWN!)……yee–ha!

If it seems like it’s already gone on for years, we are currently 596 (five hundred ninety-six) days away from the election that will determine the next president of the United States of America. But we are only one day away from the first official hat getting tossed into the 2016 ring by one of the many who been circling it, and the Houston Chronicle reports that it belongs to Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. Unnamed senior advisers say the Republican will announce his candidacy tomorrow, skipping right past the exploratory committee fun (looking at you, Jim Webb) and going right for the hat-tossing. More unnamed sources confirm the pending announcement to the AP, which notes Cruz will likely be soon joined by the likes of Jeb Bush, Scott Walker, Rand Paul, and Marco Rubio. And if 2016 doesn’t work out for Cruz, he’ll keep his current day job until 2019.

Ted Cruz?  Again……YAWN!  He is a clown that will go nowhere…..but at least he is the first so the media will be all ga-ga for awhile until the next gutless wonder decides to stop playing games and announces……he must feed his hubris!  Cruz feels he must be the center of attention and he can have that…..at least for a short time….all eyes will be laser focused on Ted.

Only a foolish person would consider this person as president…….an ego-centric d/bag that will ALWAYS put self before country…….not something needed at this time….or for that matter….EVER!

Let The Fun Begin!

This Will Be Our Life Under President Cruz Blue Nation Review

Back in 2008 I thought Sarah Palin was a joke and that has not really changed much in 6 years……and then a Senator named Cruz shows up in Washington and the jokes just got worse……

I saw this piece on Twitter and just had to press it for my readers……I cannot think of anything that could be worse than a Cruz presidency…..

 

This Will Be Our Life Under President Cruz Blue Nation Review.

Is Ted Cruz Stupid?

I have heard a lot of things about the junior senator from the great state of Texas, Ted Cruz….and I know that everyone else has heard the rumblings….but the question still stands….Is Ted Cruz cray?

He comes off as a bit of a whack-a-doodle with his willingness top shut down government and his extreme hatred for Obamacare…he is like a Pit Bull with a leg bone………that is until recently when he seem to back peddle on his threats and bolster….and then there is his other quirks, if you like that word…..

For its upcoming edition, GQ profiles controversial Tea Party Republican and possible Canadian Ted Cruz. It’s a long one, full of colorful anecdotes about the man in the ostrich-skin cowboy boots, so we’ve plucked out some of the highlights:

  • Cruz has embraced the “Wacko Bird” nickname bestowed on him by John McCain—a baseball cap emblazoned with the title next to a picture of Daffy Duck given to him by supporters in Texas is one of his prized possessions.
  • In his office, Cruz has a giant oil painting of himself delivering his first argument before the Supreme Court. “I’ve always enjoyed the fact that as I’m sitting at my desk, I’m looking at a giant painting of me getting my rear end whipped 9-0,” he says. “It is helpful for keeping one grounded.”
  • Cruz loves to tell the story of how his father came to the US at 18 as a Cuban immigrant with only $100 sewn into his underwear, and bootstrapped his way to the American dream. He doesn’t so much enjoy talking about how his father’s gas and oil exploration business went bankrupt in the ’80s. When author Jason Zengerle brings it up, he says Cruz’s “face fell and he grew quiet” before sighing and acknowledging the story.
  • One of his former college roommates says Cruz is an Ivy League snob. While studying law at Harvard, he refused to study with anyone who hadn’t done their undergraduate degree at Harvard, Princeton, or Yale. “He said he didn’t want anybody from ‘minor Ivies’ like Penn or Brown,” says the roommate. He also wore his old crimson Harvard robe to give a commencement speech at a different university earlier this year.
  • Cruz was not popular amongst his colleagues while working on W. Bush’s 2000 presidential campaign. One source says he regularly sent out group emails detailing his personal accomplishments, akin to “the cards people send about their families at Christmas, except Ted’s were only about him and were more frequent.”

Then we ask again…Is he stupid?

This man may be a lot of things but stupid is NOT one of them!

If not stupid, what’s up with this dude?

His efforts so far is all about him……he must massage his ego….and in doing that he has expanded his base, donor base and voter…….it is never about him governing it is about him positioning himself for what he feels he was born to be…..president!

The problem is…his appeal is to political haters and that is NOT a winning presidential formula………

So, he is not stupid, he is way too clever for his own good……..he is an egotist and a loser…..PERIOD!
