"Liberals do not fear tyranny. I wonder why?”

Because they aspire to be tyrants. That's why Obama is normalizing relations with Cuba - he recognizes Fidel and Raoul as like-minded people.

Punks on liberal websites love to call the Christian God the “sky faery” I always ask them if they would call allah that in Iran, or Saudia Arabia, or Pakistan or (choose most any muslim country)

Barry did not connect. Cruz is to ronald Regan as steavie ray vaughn was to jimmy Hendrix.

Thanks, I did not know about Clooney’s classless remark about Heston until you pointed it out and please accept my apologies for trying to correct when there was no need to. I just followed up on that and found an interesting story on it (probably shared here at the time):

I seem to remember a lot of leftists talking armed insurrection during Bush’s stay at the White House. It was okay then, but not now that they have their little commie Muslim in office.

I seem to recall something about Obama’s friends being insurrectionists, blowing up police buildings and such. Guns for them, but not for us, is the leftist rant.

Cruz isn’t saying anything these leftist hypocrites disagree with when it their time to oppose authority. Cruz is just echoing the Founders, who are hated by the left.

Cruz needs to remind these idiots of what happened in Germany when the people were disarmed. If the Germans had had the means to fight back against Hitlers goons, there might not have been a WWII!

Heartbreaking and disgusting comment. He showed his ugly heart. Of course Charlton was a gentleman as always in his response. Surprised and glad about Richard Dreyfuss. Thanks for the link.

Martin, I mentioned earlier that when Harvey Weinstein, who hates guns and America, was asked what he would have done to help concentration camps victims. He said he would “find a gun”. But at that point, they are pretty hard to come by in a Socialist dictatorship. Idiot

Liberals are terrified of Cruz. A brilliant man who can unapologetically state the case for conservatism. Cruz is the best candidate we have had in decades.

Ted talked about the 2nd amendment as protection for liberty. If the author claims that is encouraging insurrection, then the author must be granting the point that the government has become a threat to liberty...

I am falling more and more in love with the idea of President Cruz. He gets it.

But the reactions make me fear it is impossible.

DONT PEOPLE EVER READ THE CONSTITUTION???? Or history books at all???? I’m sure Lindsay prefers another type of gun, like in the Beatles song.

(Also, do you get my tagline?)

Hate to break it to old Si, but it’s the POTUS and his minions who are encouraging armed insurrection.

"Punks on liberal websites love to call the Christian God the “sky faery”"

They usually do that when denouncing Christian views on homosexuality or sexual morality in general. My response is that - if there is no God - then the moral pronouncements of liberals are as groundless and arbitrary as those based on belief in a "sky faery."

"I seem to remember a lot of leftists talking armed insurrection during Bush’s stay at the White House."

Back in the sixties and seventies, the New Left was VERY fond of violent slogans and talk of revolution. Now that they are running things, they aren't so fond of talk about revolution or insurrection.
