Oh Ted, We Hardly Knew Ye
Okay, so this is fun.
If you go to our local GOP website, you will see this. (Click the little one to see the big one.)
I have nicely circled the thing you need to click if this wasn’t a picture. You have to go to the actual website to make the link work but I was a afraid they’d take it down once they discover their mistake.
Once you click it, you are taken to a supposedly Hispanic pro-GOP website called GOPisforme.com
And today’s news story there is about Ted Cruz. And it ain’t nice.
Yep, it says, “Ted Cruz’s actions are poisoning the waters among Hispanics.”
The Hispanic author blasts Cruz for not favoring the Dream Act and for pandering to the far rightwing. The jest of the article comes in these paragraphs.
Why does Ted Cruz oppose citizenship for those living here illegally, yet support the Cuban Adjustment Act, which grants citizenship to Cubans for the same residency issues? It makes no sense, and his actions are poisoning the waters among Hispanics in Texas which are 80 percent Mexican.
Our Texas Senator should understand the dynamics of his state better. I am saddened to know he thinks so little of the immigrants who came here for a better life, whether they came legally or just crossed the Rio Grande for survival.
So, I suspect we should take it that the Republican Party of Fort Bend County and The Republican Party of Texas does not support Ted Cruz because they are endorsing opposition opinions.
That kinda makes me happy.
Thanks to Skip for the heads up.
