GOP presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz dropped a response to the latest mass shooting in San Bernadino, California, and it's all class.
This is how you respond in the immediate wake of a tragic and still unfolding event.
Notice the stark difference between this and the response of liberals on social media.
A decent human being waits until the facts are in before having a political discussion about an event where lives were lost.
Just one more reason to love Sen. Cruz, wouldn't you agree?
Ted Cruz: “Yesterday’s horrific murder in the wake of Paris underscores we’re at a time of war whether or not the current Admin realizes it.”
Oh yes it is most certainly time for the damned congress to step up.
This president is a menace. He’s a danger to our lives for real.
And by leaving this menace in office, so is the congress.
Americans have had enough of the federal government’s HORSESHIT.
If it’s not going to keep us safe, then there is no point in its existence.
It's a complete mystery. Two Muslims shoot up a Christmas party and we have no way whatsoever of knowing why. That's the official line. From the White House, from the media, from any number of somber people at press conferences... We mustn't speculate. Though, maybe it was violent video games. Or too much refined sugar. Or maybe they were bullied, maybe they were lashing back at micro aggressions. Either way, it's the damn NRA's fault. They hadn't dragged any of the bodies out yet and the president was already talking about we've got to have more gun control. We're a bunch of savages and we need stricter laws and we're the only civilized country that has it like this and, damn Republicans, this has to change... This happened because we don't have enough gun control, and your president isn't afraid to say so. He shouts it at every opportunity. That's what progressives call dead people. Opportunity. People die and the Democrats, pulling out their pre-printed talking points, condemn our gun laws. [<irony>] Just like the president condemned the French for lax gun laws after the attacks in Paris. [</irony>] ...The mind-boggling mystery of why the progressive half of America absolutely has to pretend that yesterday's San Bernardino attack wasn't Muslim terrorism... Two Muslims shot up a Christmas party and we're pretty sure it was workplace violence. Probably at its root this is all about islamophobia and cultural disrespect by privileged people in our racist, Christocentric society... Maybe it was angst over climate change. It was just this week that the president said the best way to fight terrorism was by stopping global warming. The pope said terrorism was caused by poor education and a lack of jobs. Absolutely Not A Terrorist #1 had a college degree, a good job with benefits and a pension, and owned a pretty nice house for a 28-year-old. Absolutely Not A Terrorist #2 had been welcomed into the United States and was living a comfortable middle class life and driving a luxury SUV. Of course, Absolutely Not A Terrorists #3 through #21 were also mostly college educated and well off when they started flying airplanes into buildings. But you only thought of that because you are a racist islamophobe... Probably the cause was chlorine in the drinking water, or Donald Trump, or psychiatric medications, or American imperialism, or the Crusades, or somebody put pork on the cafeteria menu... By the way, how about those militarized police, huh? Somebody needs to take them down a peg or two... the last two mass shootings -- at San Bernardino and Colorado Springs -- were both stopped by police in armored vehicles. Clearly yesterday was an example of police excess and I presume by the end of today the cops of California will begin taking enhanced cultural sensitivity classes... Yesterday was a human tragedy. People whose lone offense was attending a Christmas party were gunned down and slaughtered.
Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski - Ted Cruz is talk'in 'bout you...
*ANY* current GOP candidate would make a vastly better President than the current occupant of the White House...
...even Carly Fiorina.
Tomorrow morning I’m sending the NRA-ILA a check...
Good for you bob... The NRA’s been protecting all of us for a long time. God bless ‘em....
