Somebody is Gonna Get Fired
I’m sure you’ve seen the new Ted Cruz logo.
Some guy at some political consultant firm got paid more than you make to come up with that. It’s real nice until you learn what TRUS means.
A transrectal ultrasound (TRUS) is an ultrasound technique that is used to view a man’s prostate and surrounding tissues. The ultrasound transducer (probe) sends sound waves through the wall of the rectum into the prostate gland, which is located directly in front of the rectum. TRUS may also be called prostate sonogram or endorectal ultrasound.
Now, go back and look at the expression on Ted’s face. Looks like he was smart enough to have the procedure done while he posed for the picture.
We had one not near as funny but it truly explains the importance of not letting your nephew design your campaign signs with his new edition of Photoshop.
The candidate’s name is Morales.
But you wouldn’t know that from looking at his yard signs. More is Less? Really?Oh yeah, people are giggling about it.
Thanks to Fenway Fran for the heads up.
Canadian Raphael, eh?. Yo Vinny.
Your Freudian slips are showing dudes.
1Ted looks like a sad clown.
2That face and the word “Trust” just do not go together, like a running chainsaw and a toddler do not go together.
3And if you’re not careful while doing TRUS you could end up with SANTORUM. Just sayin’…
4JAKvirginia, you made me smile.
5The Cruz campaign has identified a saboteur in its midst by the name of Ben Dover.
6Cruz’s people are working hard to rectify the error. (Rectumfy?) (Rectalfy?)
Must be why he’s spending so much time this week in the Upper U.S.- him and his Lower GI.
7The images of the week just keep on rolling for Raphael, Jr. Who didn’t love the one of his daughter that said, “shove off loser.” ?
Then there is this rip from the political cartoons: https://4.bp.blogspot.com/-4RfPOr-sMx0/VrQDGAWm9jI/AAAAAAABZT8/3MnxPWv8dug/s640/adam%2Bzyglis.jpg
The face that we would love to metaphorically punch is taking some serious hits.
8Ted the Wonder Boy and his Electrical Butt Probe. Maybe he’s trying to steal the rear echelon of the GOP from T-Rump.
Or is it T-RusTed?
9I like to Truss Ted up ad toss him in a river.
10I saw this on Daily Kos. The comments get pretty hilarious. Google “trus” multiple times today. That will really put TRUS (the acronym for the procedure) at the top of the list.
11He deserves every bit of the trouble he’s getting into.
And…all these comments have got me giggling!
So, he gets an ultrasound almost like the one he would force on a woman who wants an abortion? How ironic. 🙂
12He looks like a basset hound I know.
13Trivia: NOT ONE SENATOR IN CONGRESS WILL SECOND A MOTION FROM CRUZ.
The German word “Backpfeifengesicht” can be translated as “a face that badly needs a fist in it.” I have to say, this week at least, that Cruz is only #3 on the list. Trump is #2. Right now, #1 is that little p***k who smirked and took the Fifth throughout a congressional hearing into why the drug company he just bought put up the price of a unique, life-saving drug about 1000% so he could make a billion dollars. I won’t name him because his name deserves to be forgotten.
14Clearly Republicans don’t read their emails. Otherwise they would have opened the reply they received about their great idea for a new slogan:
Re:Search
15We checked Google. Don’t use it!!
Since the message is to “trust” Ted, I’d suggest you run that by the votes violators in Iowa and Ben Carson. They might have something to say about that.

I was laughing all the way through these comments, but when I got to Richard’s “Variations on a Ted Theme”, the knee slapping and choking started. Thanks, everyone, for your comical contributions.
19You folks are a mighty creative bunch. Thanks for giving me a well-needed fit of the giggles.
20Richard, brilliant TEDsaurus! I feel a need for a “deporTED” bumper sticker, until he has deparTED.
21@Richard and your TEDsaurus.
What about that most snacilbupeR of virtues: lusTED? Not to mention dusTED. And disgusTED. And rusTED.
22The emblem next to his name looks exactly like the Al Jazeera logo.
23Why is it that the harder he tries to look like a good little boy, the longer his nose gets?
24DemenTED looks as if the sides of his face are melting.
25I have always detesTED photos of Oozy Croozy, but now I’ll always think “TRUS” when I see his face. That, and all the other wonderful options I’ve learned from you brilliant folks today. Ahhh, the day, and political season, has become considerably brighter.
26MOR(e)L(i)ES
ROFLOL for above comments!
27Uffa Rhea, Richard and Gindy51 !!!
Laura Nelson, my thought exactly!
28WhofarTED?
29Oh, goody! These Freudian slips are amazing! Can only imagine that somewhere there is GOP-er with the last name of Puritan!
30Wapo has a really entertaining story on “Felito” today. It’s about what Canadians think of him. There are some great lines and a little new info.
“Born Rafael Edward Cruz, the future senator from Texas was known as “Felito” as a baby, Galbraith said. Only later did he start using the name Ted.”
Sorta sounds like felatio, doncha think? (Sorry if that’s nasty Momma, I didn’t really mean it.)
“A political scientist in Calgary, said: Don’t expect anyone to make a ‘memorial at his childhood home.'” Hahahahaha!
Here’s the last one, not about Oozy Croozy, but Americans in general.
“Mayor Naheed Nenshi, who studied at Harvard and by his own admission is obsessed with U.S. politics, recalled the saying: “Canada and the U.S. share the world’s largest undefended one-way mirror.” That is, Canadians look south and see what’s going on down there, but Americans look north and only see themselves.”
It’s true. To read the entire article, go here: https://goo.gl/sKAwqB
31Dana Milbank is one of the hordes who have observed the sliminess of Oozy Croozy first hand. After following him and tRump for the week in New Hampshire he described tRump as having a lock on anger, while Oozy specializes in pure nastiness. Milbank said, “Cruz . . . had a lock on nastiness. [He] has Joe McCarthy’s knack for false insinuation and underhandedness. What sets Cruz apart is the malice he exudes.”
Purely, repulsively disgusting – Oozy Croozy.

Oh yeah. His “New York Values” comments? Code for anti-Semitism. Are we surprised that the grotesque little pig is a racist bigot? We are not. Old news.
32The guy is simply “Nixonian”, with all the slimy, underhanded meanness implied by that name.
33I like the flame he’s got in the logo. Just reminding us that the world is on fire, and he’s totally OK with yelling at other people’s kids, I suppose.
34I’m sure hoping some talented type Photoshops all hell outta that sleazy campaign poster, and the finished results get scatTed all over Hell’s half-acres nationwide (hope y’all got the “scatTed” bit on this turd).
They don’t copy or trade mark those things, do they? Who cares, just do it; somebody, please.
I never put up political signs or bumperstickers, but I could make an exception for that one, with a “DETESTED” wording, in neon yellow (and maybe a little facial work to make Slooze look a bit more like those silent movie villains, which he so closely resembles).
35Sandridge 😀 😀 😀 There is something about scat and Ted that are mutually complementary commodities. So yeah I got it. Lucky for me my desk hides the keyboard or I’d be busy cleaning sarsaparilla or buying a new one.
36Polite Kool Marxist,
37Yep, scatTed is like the worst doody you ever stepped in (we need a poll: What’s the nastiest excremenTed you ever stuck a foot in?).
Let’s hope at least 50.00009% of voters smell him as he is in all his crappy olfactory stench come November (assuming he’s their chosen one; gawd, if ever there was a Hobson’s/devil’s choice, the Repukkkian field is it).
Make that 270/1(?) Electoral Collidge votes anyway, and no SCOTUS tricks (can’t you imagine Thomas, Scalia, et al., salivating over getting their grubby paws on a 2000 redux?).
Is Ben Dover related to Phil McCrackin?
38@#38: they’re first cousins by way of incest.
39I am thinking that if you are going to be the poster boy for “Trans Rectal Ultrasound”, perhaps you should be a little more appreciative of the Affordable Care Act. #ThanksObama
40is this the same vincent morales who ran for us senate in 1996 (as a democrat) against gramm?
i sure hope not. i volunteered for that campaign. i’d hate to think i was working for an eventual republican.
let me know if you know,so i can take this line off my resume if need be.
41I used to think the nastiest man on earth was the man who spit like quarters. Then came Cruz.
42Joel, not same guy.
43Weren’t the Republicans trying to mandate these before each retroactive abortion?
44my bad. that was *victor* morales. phew.
