PALM BEACH, Florida (AP) -- Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas is telling an influential anti-tax group that he opposes Common Core education standards, putting him at odds with fellow presidential prospect Jeb Bush a day after Bush endorsed the standards to the same audience.

Cruz is among six potential presidential candidates speaking at the Club for Growth's...

"If we must have an enemy at the head of Government, let it be one whom we can oppose, and for whom we are not responsible, who will not involve our party in the disgrace of his foolish and bad measures." - Alexander Hamilton "We don't intend to turn the Republican Party over to the traitors in the battle just ended. We will have no more of those candidates who are pledged to the same goals as our opposition and who seek our support. Turning the Party over to the so-called moderates wouldn’t make any sense at all." -- President Ronald Reagan "A thing moderately good is not so good as it ought to be. Moderation in temper is always a virtue; but moderation in principle is always a vice." - Thomas Paine 1792 "It does not take a majority to prevail, but rather an irate, tireless minority, keen on setting brushfires of freedom in the minds of men." - Samuel Adams "If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Jeb Bush has received millions in bribes from Pearson which stands to make billions from common core. You have to wonder what other bribes he is taking as he wants millions of illegals. Read the first link. It sums up who is making the money.

The term “bipartisan” is a codeword for “leftist @sshats.”

I see you broke the Code : )

I prefer George Carlin’s definition...

“The word ‘bipartisan’ means that some larger-than-usual deception is being carried out.”

[Politicalkiddo]

That’s a pretty good litmus test to go by.

“Common Stupidity” is clearly the goal.

People need to be made aware of what these disgusting greedy pigs are doing to engorge themselves with even more money at the expense of the well being and education of generations of children.

These children are now taught to doubt themselves (by repeatedly failing tests based on nonsense), and obey government because government knows best. (Ugghhh!)
