Ted Cruz vs The Republican Establishment
TownHall.com ^ | Oct 18, 2013 | Humberto Fontova

Ted Cruz has recently…well you know what he’s been up to recently. Former Massachusetts. Governor and Republican establishment stalwart John Sununu, on the other hand, has recently been busy on Capitol Hill lobbying on behalf of the business interests of Castro’s Cuba, an official “State-Sponsor of Terrorism.”

So which Republican is taking all the heat—and from the Republican establishment?

You know good and well who. Worse still, one Republican is taking heat from the other: “It’s time for someone to act like a grown-up in this process,” quipped John Sununu two weeks ago regarding the shutdown. According to the AP story, Sununu was, “ faulting Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and tea party Republicans in the House as much as President Barack Obama for taking an uncompromising stance. “

Well, what we have here is either some “serious failure to communicate,” or some serious “growing in office” by the Republican establishment.

The nitty gritty on Sununu’s lobbying: The Castro regime (famous for bogus healthcare) now claims to have invented a cure for diabetic foot ulcers. According to the Miami Herald, former Mass. Senator Bill Delahunt (famous for his Castrophilia) and former New Hampshire governor and Bush Chief of staff John Sununu (famous for his IQ) have signed on as lobbyists for the pharmaceutical company hell-bent on introducing “Dr Castro’s Gen-You-Wine Foot-Ulcer Medicine and Baldness Cure” to the U.S. market.

Step one of the swindle involves getting an OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control) license to test the snake-oil in the U.S. Step two is getting FDA approval. According to a recent piece in the Miami Herald John Sununu is currently busy on Capitol Hill lobbying Castro-friendly legislators to prevail upon the Treasury department to approve the license for testing.

To wit:

“(Democratic Senator Joe ) Garcia said (former Massachusetts U.S. Rep. Bill) Delahunt, a Democrat, pitched him on the proposal as well as Republican John Sununu, a former New Hampshire governor and later White House chief of staff to President George H.W. Bush. …After Garcia met with the two last week, his office helped circulate letters in Congress to gain support for testing and marketing of the diabetic foot-ulcer treatment, Herberprot-B, in the United States.”

You can take quotes from Democrats and Republicans and people will not be able to tell the difference.

Ted Cruz vs The Republican Establishment

Cruz certainly seems to be a large pain in the ass to the RINOs like McCain, Graham, Mconnel, et.al. Maybe he's just what we need to shut up those old, senile bastards in 2016. Hope he keeps it up.

Third Party! Tea Party!

Cruz could lead us out of the abyss, but first impeach the phony, evil ugly cancer that has infected this nation: OBAMA!

If we can’t take over the GOP, we will not be able to win with a third party. And Obama is not going to be impeached much less removed from office. We need realistic plans if we are going to win.

Quibble moment - I believe John Sununu was Governor of New Hampshire, not Massachusetts.

Ted is the real deal. I can hardly believe we were able to send him to The Swamp.

Ya'll can thank Texas for another natural resource that fuels the nation...

Midge has been in the DC for nearly 30 years!

Time to oust this fossil.
