Not the Best Day For Ted Cruz
Poor Ole Ted.
First he has to go back to the Senate where nobody likes him.
Then he’s going to have to return a helluva lot of campaign contributions. The FEC caught him taking more than the allowable contributions. Click right here to see ten pages of names. And since some people maxed out for both the primary and the general election, he has to return all the general election money because he ain’t gonna be in the general election, and I thank God for that.
And if that’s not enough, he’s getting sued for stealing music.
SEATTLE (AP) — Sen. Ted Cruz’s now-defunct presidential campaign is being sued over the background music it used in two videos.
Audiosocket, a music licensing company based in Seattle and New Orleans, filed the lawsuit Monday in U.S. District Court in Seattle against Cruz for President and the advertising firm Madison McQueen. It says an agreement between Audiosocket and Madison McQueen expressly barred the use of the songs for political purposes.
The suit is for “several hundreds of thousand dollars.” Dude, steal something cheaper next time, you know, like a haul of diamonds.
And then today, his name is so damn sullied that he had to announce that he will run for re-election to the senate in 2018. Because people were having their doubts over whether or not he would or even should.
Bless his heart. His cup just runneth over with real bad karma.
Only for scientific reason, I hope something else bad happens to him today because I hate that bad news comes in threes. Now I’m not wishing something else bad on him – this is just scientific research.
Loathsome Crooze uniting the snacilbupeR behind him – with knives.

1I would hope to see Cruz lose reelection in 2018, except a) I fear TX is not quite purple enough yet to elect a Democrat, though I know y’all are working hard at it! and b) every time I think the choices have hit the bottom of the outhouse pit, a worse one turns up.
Back when I lived there, Phil Gramm was the most despicable one around. Since I left, the electorate has coughed up, like a series of ever more disgusting hairballs, Oily Joe Barton, Louie Gohmert (ok so he doesn’t actually have hair, but he’s still disgusting), and Cruz, among others who make Gramm look relatively sane if still awful. Who’d be next? Mary Lou Bruner? (Please don’t tell me I put an idea in her head; lord knows an idea would find a lot of vacant space there to hang out.)
2My wish list for Ted starts with:
The US House of Representatives announces a Select Committee to investigate the connection between Rafael Cruz and Lee Harvey Oswald, and their participation in the shooting death of President Kennedy, as admitTED by his own son on the campaign trail.
3This is all just yummy news.
4I think he was anointed to take the the money and run.
5O ye of little faith.
And he still thinks that he could jump back in the game again? Delusion, thy name is Cruz!
6Yes, anoinTED thinks he will just waltz into the convention and convince a ballroom full of people who despise him that only HE can unite the GOP and save America from the Godless Democrats. UniTED. Against Ted Cruz. DistrusTED by all, haTED by most, and a man who hates governing. And he’s running again? Come on Texas, wise up. He’s already cost us 28 billion dollars with his Seuss stunt. He hasn’t voted in months because he’s been too busy grifting money and giving speeches.Time for Heidi to go back to work for Goldman-Sachs (which seems to be totally more acceptable to the GOP than merely giving a couple of speeches at G-S.) Time for Teddy to get down on his knees and thank his God that no one really paid attention to his and Daddy’s real plans for the USA.
7Laurel, I’d like to see distrusTED lose in 2018, too, but since the Texas snacilbupeR were still crazy about him in the primaries here, I’m not going to hold my breath. It’s about folks who keep voting against their own interest because they get sidetracked–squirrel!–by trivia.
8Couldn’t happen to a nicer Lucifer. He’ll just have to tuck his tail between his legs, hide his pitchfork and pretend he’s a winner.
9@Laurel
Sometimes I vote in the general election based on the logic that the devil I know is better than the devil I don’t know. In the case of Senator Cruz, I will vote for the Dem if there is one and if not, whichever candidate is NOT Senator Cruz.
10If you don’t like three bad things in a row for detesTED, go for a different prime number, like 5 or 7 or 11 or 13, even. The more the merrier, I always say. And DetesTED really needs more.
11Let’s reward him with what he deserves: none of our attention.
12Seeing how the Repub candidates managed their campaigns is yet one more reason to be grateful that they will not be governing the country.
13Senator Cruz, your re-election campaign slogan is ready:
Vote for Lucifer in the flesh!
As always, no charge for my creative services.
14My wish for Ted. May be investigaTED, indiTED, convicTED, and incarciraTED. Then may he reach a ten in our political memory as forgotTEN.
15There is a Republican primary election in a week or two to replace Cong Randy Neugebauer, who is not running for re-election. The current mayor of Lubbock, Glen Robertson, makes Randy AND DisgusTED look like they are negotiable, reasonable public servants. Guess Micr’s adage about voting for the devil I know is spot on….. Hard to imagine we could get worse than detesTED, but it is Texas, afterall….and Republicans have been very adept at sewer diving for new blood.
