Ted Cruz To Ruin Easter By Airing Presidential Campaign Ads (Desperate, already?)
Jezebel ^ | April 4, 2015 | Stassa Edwards

Posted on 04/04/2015 7:01:57 PM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

In an attempt to shore up his cred with Evangelicals, Texas senator Ted Cruz will be rolling out the first ads of his presidential campaign on Easter Sunday. Because, let’s be honest, nothing says “presidential campaign” quite like the resurrection of Christ.

Cruz’s ad will air during the Fox News broadcast of Killing Jesus, an adaption of Bill O’Reilly’s best-selling book, and in “key states” during NBC’s broadcast of A.D.: The Bible Continues. Should you dare, you can watch the ad here.

Via CNN:

“The campaign is spending $33,000 on the 30-second spot, which features Cruz talking about the impact of the “​transformative love of Jesus Christ” on his life.”

Since Cruz announced his candidacy at Liberty University last week, he’s become one of the most vocal supporters of Indiana’s “religious freedom law.” On Friday, Cruz reiterated his support for the Indiana law to a group of Iowa supporters:

“There are a lot of people here in Iowa and across the country whose hearts are breaking watching what has happened in the last two weeks. We have seen a grossly unfair vilification of religious liberty.”

Ted Cruz: bringing religious liberty back one campaign ad at a time.

“There are a lot of people here in Iowa and across the country whose hearts are breaking watching what has happened in the last two weeks. We have seen a grossly unfair vilification of religious liberty.”


The Left chose the worst possible time to torture American Christians with letting the 2% tyrannize the 98%, at Easter.

It *has* been unbearable, enraging, and I pray for swift, sure and devastating vengeance. I’m done turning the other cheek.

“Ruin Easter” The left must believe in G_D and His Son first and that is not going to happen. These people do not know if they need to $hit or wind they watch.

Sounds right to me.

According to the biblical accounts, Jezebel incited her husband King Ahab to abandon the worship of Yahweh and encourage worship of the deities Baal and Asherah instead. Jezebel is said to have persecuted the prophets of Yahweh, and to have fabricated false evidence of blasphemy against an innocent landowner who refused to sell his property to King Ahab, causing the landowner to be put to death. For these transgressions against the God and people of Israel, the Bible relates, Jezebel met a gruesome death - thrown out of a window by members of her own court retinue, and the flesh of her corpse eaten by stray dogs.

Thx. You never know nowadays with people claiming military service. I was PCS based in the PI but spent the majority of my time in VN as a VN ling doing dog tracks up and down the northern coast.

I’ll tip a cold one to you tomorrow! But certainly not an Obi.

Yeah, the far left is really winning some points with the Indies and Moderates with their extremeism and shrill.

The GOPe thinks they have to lean to the left to get votes and support,

NADA !

Ted Cruz is a sly calculating fox sitting and waiting ( I meant it in a metaphorically good way ) to where he won’t have to do a darn thing to bring in the indies and moderates.

Contrasting himself with the extremism and shrill of the left he is letting the left do it for him, GOOD OLD JOB LEFTIES ! GOOD OLD JOB MEDIA ! YOUR ACTUALLY HELPING TED CRUZ WIN THE INDEPENDENTS AND MODERATE VOTERS !

The Indies and Moderates do not see Ted Cruz as “ extreme “ compared to the left.

The left now is exhausting all their energy, power, and money now all in vain.
