The Internet Machine Is Not Being Kind to Ted
By now you have heard that www.TedCruz.com supports President Obama and that www.TedCruzforAmerica.com isn’t any kinder to Ted.
But there’s more. A twitter dude discovered that Ted’s donation website might not be exactly secure. In fact, it shares a certificate with Nigerian-Prince.com. The simple explanation of why that’s dangerous for his donors is here.
The proof is here. Click the little one to get the big one.
Nigerian-Prince.com Is that close to Kenya?
Okay, one other Ted Thing. I have been wondering what the hell his logo is.
What the hell is that thing? A flame because the whole world is on fire? The Cuban flag? Something from the Purifying Fire Ministries where his Dad preaches? Drops of oil?
I’m gonna be honest. It scares me.
its clearly a burn-off flame from a Calgary oil field
1That logo is an epic fail. And the joker STILL might win. At least we don’t have to launch endless tirades about his speeches since they will all be retreads of the same lies over and over. Starting this morning on ABC.
2Perhaps a trickle-down from the Cruz economic plan? One drop for you, the rest for Mr. Cruz’s owners?
3Way to go, Ted!
4It’s for his followers– distorted red, white, and blue with a pointy head. (I nearly wrote “haid,” but I wasn’t sure whether that needed interpretation.)
5Daffy Cruz Jr. is lost, again. His future is not here; even his Pappy told him that. Get thee to Israel, where the Gaza Dog awaits with the time machine. Take the other 46 traitors with you, where they can choose between riding the shot with you or placing their boots in Syria/Iraq/Yemen.
6It’s a crude representation of the Harry Potter sorting hat, which of course, sends Cruz to Slitherin. Watch and howl.

7It’s clearly the purifying flame which will cleanse Murica and reestablish dog’s law & dominion as intended by the Founding fathers. Women will be firmly shown their place, modestly dressed and two steps behind the head of the household. They will learn to be fulfilled by life of Dogly service and prayer graced by as many children as He sends them who will in the fullness of days enlist in the military machine to enforce the exceptionalism of the 1percent.
8I believe poor Ted peaked too soon, the day before he announced. I hope he doesn’t burn out too soon. I will be disappointed if it ends in a whimper rather than a bang. I want to see a full scale implosion with him screaming at the media and waving papers in the air.
9The logo is clearly tear-shaped, so I guess the real question is whose tears? The country’s? God’s? All sane people’s?
Or could it be tears of laughter from ecstatic comedians across the country, with Jon Stewart leading the field?
10Cruz is so ugly they’d have have to tie a bunch of computers around his neck to get a giga to byte him.
11The flames of hell?
12JJ
Everything about Ted Cruz scares the h*** out of me.
If that “logo” were inverted….it would perfectly depict the state of “America’s wealth”.
Everything at the top, nothing “trickling down” to the bottom.
Somebody should fix that for Cruz.
13Kenya and Nigeria aren’t really close, being on opposite sides of the continent, but still, they are on the same continent, so close enough.
This link pretty well sums up my feelings on the Cruz candidacy: https://plus.google.com/photos/115861029923646336248/albums/6129622704783273025/6129622703119966962
14It is very similar to the logo used by the Purifying Fire Ministries. Presumably, blood of Christ, all that good stuff. Ted Cruz scares the crap out of me. He is a dominionist, a demagogue and he is smart. Probably won’t winter the GOP nomination, but he will steer the candidate further to the right (if that is possible)
15I had a niece that ran away from home. After leaving Wisconsin, traveling through New Orleans, she came to us in California. I signed her up for high school equivalency and some craft classes. She lived in terror that bikers she saw murder someone in NO would find her. I pointed out that the likelihood of them finding her in crochet class was very unlikely.
16I grew up in violent poverty. Guns, knives and fists were the norm. I believe that that mentality of violence is the real issue. There is lots of rage around being less than, not much patience to do the work necessary for change. Booze and other drugs are excuses for bad behavior and the mind changes that come from addiction reinforce the fears. My niece was paranoid from her short exposure to that lifestyle–I know that it is a choice, because I chose away from it.
This video is the proof of the mindset and only one of the people is living in a fantasy, but it is NOT the woman.
Sorry, that post was for the gun one..dang tiny phone screen and arthritic fingers.
17As far as Ted goes, I can only pray that the flame symbolizes his quick burn out….otherwise it will be hell for the rest of us.
Hey, y’all. You’ll love this. I’m typing from the library and they won’t let me see the “Purifying Fire Ministries” link. It has a “bad reputation” according to the alert screen!
That just tickles me! Bwahahahahahahahaha!
18HA! Honest to dog, here’s what McAfee SiteAdvisor has to say about the Purifying Fire Ministries site:
This link might be dangerous. We tested it and found security risks. Beware.
Website Category:
Malicious Sites
http://www.purifyingfire.org/ministries.htm may be risky to visit.
Now, I’m wondering how secure Heidi Cruz’ computer is at Goldman Sachs…
19Ted Cruz only took a day to find out it’s not the world that’s on fire, it’s just Ted Cruz going up in flames.
While the rest of us watch. S’mores anyone?
20All that rich symbolism in the logo and the malicious website, and still there are addle-brained folks ready to switch from “patriotic” tea to Cruz’s purple koolaid.
21Rick, no thank you. I wouldn’t touch a s’more toasted over that ugly grease fire.
22Except for the colors, it looks just like the logo for Al Jazeera.
23Whoever owns Tedcruz.com should secure the site and set up a donation page on it where the funds go to various good liberal causes
24I just now bothered to click on the Purifying Fire link. Suzanne Hinn? Benny Hinn’s wife? Papa Cruz is mixed up with her? What a match.
25The logo is a natural gas flame from the fracking lobby that’s supporting his campaign.
26There’s another site I read (sorry ’bout that JJ!) from today which paralleled 2016 with 1964. Barry Goldwater let loose the dogs of crazy and LBJ beat him like a borrowed mule in the general election. Of course that strumming of the far far far right of the GOP made Richard Nixon look fairly normal and mainstream by 1968. In any case I desperately long for Senator Cruz to sink to new GOP/T-Party depths while spending as much as possible of the billion more or less the Kochs have budgeted for buying the election in 2016. BTW the Dems need to offer up a candidate as well.
27So I’m still stuck on the fence about whether Carnival Cruz believes any of the shite he spouts or is actually intelligent enough to consciously latch on to the neo-con gravy train. But I do think he ended up with a pretty well designed logo given his audience. A USA-ified pentacostal flame that references the Statue of Liberty and Olympic glory as well pretty much symbolizes what he is selling.
28On the upside- Gary Hart had to be Gary Hart, Bill Clinton had to well, you know. Dick Cheney had to shoot somebody in the face. Rick Perry had to forget on stage. And Mittens had to announce that the 47% don’t count. Ted Cruz will go off the deep end just like Chris Christie will go all Sopranos on somebody. Though I’m not sure we are lucky in the fact that Hillary is actually the only one in the race that can keep her avaricious nature out of the public eye for a whole campaign.
Tonight Rachel Maddow pointed out that the only Republican presidential wins since 1972 had a Bush on the ticket. Seriously. Doesn’t that boggle the mind? The good news is that means carnival cruze is out.
29Lets hope that when he gets Obamacare there will be a doctor
30that can find out what is wrong with him.
I would say reading Green Eggs and Ham on the senate floor
should be enough to lock him away somewhere.
Cruz is immmmmmmpotent and that is why he dresses the part.
31It’s an upside-down American flag on fire. ‘Cuz Ted’s sooooo patriotic.
32It’s an upside-down American flag on fire. To show how very patriotic he is.
