That’s Some Dandy Writing About Ted Cruz
Customer Stephen sent us a story about Ted Cruz that is so well written that it literally raised my universal consciousness by five feet.
It would be evil of me not to share it with you. Jay Bookman at the Atlanta Journal Constitution has this message about our boy Ted.
For a quarter century now, the Republican Party has suppressed its own instincts, refusing to nominate candidates who dared to give full voice to the sentiments of its base, refusing to surrender to that temptation. The result has been a series of lackluster nominees — Bush, Dole, Bush, McCain, Romney — that time and again left the party faithful disappointed in themselves for compromising.
Ted Cruz, on the other hand, is their giant box of Godiva chocolates at a Weight Watchers convention, their open bottle of Jim Beam at an AA meeting. He’s the bad boy tempting them to throw away all restraint, the one whispering in their ear all the things they want to hear and believe.
And if they succumb, he’s going to leave them fat, drunk and pregnant.
Now that there is a damn hoot of truth.
Thanks to Stephen for the heads up.
Not to mention the heart burn, runs, diabetes, hemorrhoids, and vericose veins. And wait until they find out the sex isn’t all that satisfying.
1And zits. Must not forget zits.
2“the one whispering in their ear all the things they want to hear and believe.”
Isn’t that what the preachers tells us that satan does ?
3I do believe I heard that in my religion class.
just one more word to the line “he’s going to leave them fat, drunk and pregnant.” barefoot
4And as usual they will most likely not check his background as thoroughly as they should just like they did with the Sock Puppet! And look what it got them!
5Aren’t they already fat, drunk and pregnant?
They don’t believe in regulations or food education even if it would make our diet safer, they are drunk on konservatism if not on alcohol, and they view pregnancy as a swell way to punish women for having naughty sex.
6@LynnN, or in fact, ANY sex!!
7Compromising? That’s not the Republican Party compromising; that’s the Tea Party compromising. I wish fair-minded Republicans would throw them the H-E-double toothpicks out and make them be a third party.
However, the Tea Party commands a prodigious amount of money, seeing as how it contains the Koch brothers and other commercial, self-interested, moneybags. I expect the Republicans can’t make themselves give that up.
8That’s a magnificent piece of writing. I have to share that one on facebook. Thanks, Susan.
9I shared it on Facebook!!!
10The GOP keep on saying that the reason that Dole, McCain and Romney lost was due to the fact that they were not conservative enough. I would love to see Carnival Cruz be the GOP nominee. The GOP should be allowed to test their theory because after all Goldwater did so well under this theory.
11And don’t forget stoopid.
12Too much fun – must Tweet.
13Bookman has it right. Ted Cruz is having the time of his life, romping through Republican adolescents’ zit farms, popping every pustule he sees to bring every bit of evil pimple juice to light for the general revulsion of all the voting public.
14“The love of money is the root of all kinds of evil….”
15And I believe Jesus condemned greed and self-righteousness more than any other sin.
16Fat, drunk, pregnant—and will ask them for gas money to get home when he’s done with them.
17Biblically, envy is the top dog of the list of deadliest sins, envy spawns the lesser evils, ie, love of money, but of all the lessons that Jesus taught, I don’t feel He directed condemnation on anyone, He may have kicked over a few coffers, but He did not condemn ppl, but who knows what He may have said if He had met TJudasCruz!
18I am with you, Kyle. I’d love to see Cruz as the Rethugs nominee. They claim to want to see Armageddon. If the Dems can get out the vote, we can make sure they do.
19Fat, Drunk and Stupid is the Republicon way to go through life…
20I am not supposed to drink because of medication issues. My family also has alcohol issues, so I limit myself to toasting at my daughters weddings, anniversary parties and birthdays.
21If the Repigs get into power by some deal with the devil, I think I will take up drinking and hide in the closet for however it takes for people to come to their senses…the kind of Kristians that these people represent are some of the cruelest, nastiest, dry drunks you will ever meet–I grew up among them in the crAZy southwest, fled as soon as I was old enough and am a Zen Bhuddist mostly…how religion ever got to the forefront of political issues I just do not understand…where is the separation of church and state–a theocracy when so much of the population says “none” under religious preference…it’s getting crazier by the moment–my childhood around those Procter child molesting creeps that say ” amen, praise The Lord, and it’s for your own good” had me ready to commit suscide by the time I was 9…so the closet seems like a pretty good idea..just sayin’…
Sorry, my thumbs aren’t working well today–misspelling and dropping letters.
22Elise, religion has always aligned itself with power…all the better to threaten you in this life and the next. The gentle shepherd has been locked out.
23Holy cats, I read that whole article, which is some fine writing. But, golly, is it scary. My skin is crawling even as I type. I believe I will forward it to my pastors. They will not like it. (That is, they won’t like the frightening part about Mr. Creepy Cruz. They would probably like TWMDBS.)
That dude (Mr. Cruz–I just cannot think of him as a senator) has the voice of a loud hornet, he channels Joe McCarthy, and he misquotes and/or misinterprets all the icky parts of the Bible. Makes me wish I could set him up to have a debate with George Fox. (Sorry, inside joke for any Quakers in the crowd. I promise not to do it again.)
24“Cruz is a force of nature.” Texas beans sure work up a blow in ioway. Most forces of nature are seriously destructive,kinda like a gathering of religious fruit loops/political blowhards.
25Ted Cruz woooeeeeing Iowa’s conservative pastors is the New Palin/Bachmann. With their full-funded help, he might even win the Iowa Presidential Straw Poll like they did. Puts him on their prediction maps despite Sarah’s “How’s that workin’ out fer ya?” Can he slur his words like her or bat his eyes like them?
26Cruz isn’t all that popular with his fellow Repug senators and main stream Repugs. Can’t see him getting the nomination, but oh baby, hope he gives it all he’s got in the primary. Can’t wait to see him crash and burn.
27Now that will be some shock and awe!
