Cruising for a Bruising
Ted Cruz decided to spend the 4th of July in McAllen, Texas. McAllen is home to about 130,000 people and is 85% Hispanic.
Cruz did not have fun at the parade. He, of course, was met by protesters. When you go to a highly Hispanic and Democratic city along the border and you favor sending half of most family back to Mexico, it’s kinda unlikely that they want you to be Grand Marshall of the parade.
Y’all, seriously, I think the boy was lost. Or dunk. I dunno.
“Ted Wants Us Dead,” was a favorite chant. My personal favorite sign? “No transfer of wealth 4 our health.”
Cruz referred to the protesters as a “small group of people on the left who right now are very angry.” Small? Did he say small? Honey, only 12% approve of the senate healthcare bill. Who looks small now?
Thanks to Deb for the heads up.
How does one get “dunk”. I must admitthat Ted seems very good at it if by dunk we mean a blind, unreasoning stupor
1I suspect this means he won’t have any open town halls, and will use his unpopularity as an excuse. “It’s not safe! The left is so VIOLENT!”
2Shirt, That’s when you’re so drunk that you fall into the baptistry. Or it’s a typo. I dunno. I still have fireworks in my eyes.
3dunk* – when a repulsive dick like Teddie Crooze drinks, he drinks alone, thus not rating the “r” in drunk.
Recall the wonderful President Obama moment, when it was suggested he have a drink with Mitch McConnell. To which the President retorted: “why don’t YOU have a drink with Mitch McConnell.”
4I read that Cruz was one of the few GOP who is having a town hall, and I laughed out loud at the thought of his reception. I hope we get video. But he’ll probably chicken out. He said he would only because he thinks everyone loves him.
5Al Franken about Ted Cruz: “You have to understand that I probably like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz,” Franken says. “And I hate Ted Cruz.”
6yeah, I know I am old and nasty and damn proud of it. I worked hard enough to get to this point on the horizon. As for Cruz – delusional and I swear on many occasions I thought he was on meth. I still feel terribly sorry for his wife and little children. I hope they can find refuge in time.
7What the heck was he doing in a largely Hispanic town? He doesn’t speak Spanish or Tex-Mex so why was he there? I loved all the Beto 2018 signs being waved around. Let’s hope enough get out and vote for Beto next year so we can send Rafael home so his wife and daughters have to deal with him.
8Roberto @ #6 for the win! ROFLMAO
9Teddie is delusional. He is so hated in the Senate that his colleagues spray Lysol in his wake. Ok I made that up but only just. Hey Texas voters, send that sumbitch back to some deadly hot, horsefly riddled island without A/C, a flyswatter, or clean water. And sink the boat so he’s stuck there. And guess what! No island healthcare.
