Poor Ted. They’re Just Picking On Him
You know the sound of a whining bigoted hypocrite Canadian born prissy man? You know, like fingernails on a chalkboard.
Senator Ted Cruz is just bent out of shape that PolitiFact knows that he’s a pubic servant. He announced that he’s “not a big fan” of it.
Well, I guess not.
In fact, Ted Cruz has an absolutely abysmal record on Politifact for telling the truth. Out of the 36 comments they’ve fact-checked on Cruz, an astonishing 67 percent of them have been rated as “Mostly False” all the way down to “Pants on Fire.” And out of all 36 of those comments, only one has been rated as “True.”
I kinda suspect they’re not a big fan of his either.
Thanks to Kyle for the heads up.
Have you noticed that he’s been relatively quiet lately. I think he finally recognized that the damp feeling in his socks came from the general public’s perception that every time he opened his mouth, he was only peeing on his shoes.
1Peeing on his own shoes is fine. It is when he pee’s on America and regular folks that WE get in trouble.
2On (largely imaginary) planet Micr peeps walk around with a list on their outermost garment indicating for whom they voted. This is so as to subject these voters to the maximum amount of educational ridicule when they must publicly own having voted for such a failed idiot.
3I expect Politifact may be one of his few true fans: he provides them with so much excellent content.
4Don’t be too hard on old Ted. He’s a Republican. Lying is what Republicans do. That’s all the ever do. It’s a tradition that goes all the back at least to Barry Goldwater.
5Truthiness is in the eye of the bewildered.
6Hey, they found one statement true. I wonder which one it was. It probably stated with “I’d be am idiot if….”
7He’s a “pubic” servant? Oh, I hope not.
8Was it a slip of the fingers that has him listed as a ‘pubic’ servant, or do you know something about him that you’re not yet ready to share with us?
9Lynne and Susan, There are times when auto-correct knows more than I do.
10Somebody must have gotten through his epic size ego so he could hear that he has over-saturated the res publica. You can only go just so far with exposure and then folks just blank out with such stimulation. They can’t hear it and can’t see it. Its kind of like an overstimulated pre-schooler who can and does fall asleep on his feet.
11What does it say about the American voting pubic that so many like Sen. Cruz get elected?
And re-elected! Look folks, if he can’t or won’t tell the truth, why, oh God, do you vote for him?
12“What does it say about the American voting pubic that so many like Sen. Cruz get elected?”
Beats me. I thought Minnesota elected a wrestler governor because there wasn’t much to do in Minnesota so they figured he’d be fun to watch. Doesn’t explain why California elected a B-grade actor. Maybe the Texans elected Cruz for the laughs.
13Whoops, TWO B-grade actors. Or maybe a B and a F.
A dear British friend of mine was staying over here as the Distinguished Scholar in Residence at a small university in 1984, and he got a call asking about his vote. He replied that he wasn’t an American citizen, but that if he could, he would vote for Reagan. The caller, obviously pleased, wanted to know why.
“I said, ‘Here is a grade B actor in grade Z films who becomes the governor of the largest American state and president of the most powerful nation in the world. It’s the greatest Cinderella story since Jesus Christ.’ And then he hung up on me.”
14Was Teddy being a “pubic servant” when he wore his smoking jacket in the girls dorm way back when?
15I saw a picture of a bumper sticker on a Texas licensed pickup:
State flower = blue bonnet
State nut = Ted Cruz
16@charles phillips
17So far as I am aware the 2012 election for Senate is the only election little Teddy the Cruz-er has won.
I’m surprised he said one true thing. Was it his name?
18Minnesota had a perfectly good reason to elect the “body”. It put the flake in the state motto 10000 lakes and a flake. Michele “one L” Bachmann inherited the flake title and now they are waiting to bestow the title on the next flake.
19@ onion, the news is very depressing today. Thanks for the giggle.
Re: Ted Cruz, the only pubis he is interested in seeing serviced is his own. Creep.
20Dear Miss Juanita,
According to Politifact, Mr Cruz spoke honestly regarding toilet seats. Obviously an area of expertise.

21I learned today while hauling a friend around to drs. that lying is a very horrible disease. For anyone who has the courage to bring it up with Cruz, he can get help with it at Behavioral Health which is part of the Circle of Health in Austin or maybe all over Texas. He will need a good lawyer to prove that he is unable to work fulltime because of his lying. He can get on disability though if he can prove it. Y’all want to help him prove it?
22I wonder who else is eligible for disability because of their habits of lying. This could be a whole book. Or cartoon strip maybe….
23@marge: we can start by calling roll in the US Senate, at least 50% of them should qualify for some sort of help; then we can move on to the US House-it’s possible that if we can get Orange John off the sauce, he could then work on some of his other issues – I think about 60-65% of those poor souls need Rx at the very least, I mean, look at Louis Gomert! And if we have anything leftover (it won’t be much!) we could theoretically upgrade the treatment program for the very seriously reality-challenged clan that have recently convened in Austin. I think we should start with the less serious cases, though, because we might actually have some success with them; I think the lifers are beyond our help, and we’ll have to settle for providing palliative care only…
24Hmm, palliative care. You think maybe just keep one of those baby gates across the door to their inside offices and keep them mildly (or heavily, depending on situation) sedated while their staff handles everything else? Tell you what, I’m putting you in charge of the program. You think we could get Federal funds for it?
25No, no, no Marge! Why, a federal program will destroy their initiative and turn them into lazy, no good, do nothing leaches!
Oh wait. That’s what the Republican Congress already is.
26Debbo, you can be in charge of the Integrity Unit.
27Thank you Marge. I’m going to use a secret email account.
