Ted Cruz: I would NOT support a ban on all Muslims coming to America

The Right Scoop ^ | Dec 10, 2015 | The Right Scoop

[M. Thatcher]

Just as Ted Cruz doesn't support indiscriminately shutting down mosques inside the United States, he also said he won't support a ban on all Muslims coming to America:

Cruz makes clear to the Daily Signal that he believes we should focus on countries that have problems with radical Islamic terrorism.

He also weighed in on the the ceasing of the NSA's bulk collection of metadata, pointing out that we had metadata and still weren't able to stop this San Bernardino terrorist attack or the Tsarnaev brothers in Boston or Nidal Hassan.

Cruz is part of the establishment,in lockstep with the top

That's absolutely absurd.

Kindly take a deep breath.

Great info, thanks for the post.

[Secret Agent Man]

I am.

If it stops just one muslims terrorist from entering the country, it’s worth it. Besides, it’s for the children.

I love boomeranging a liberal idiom back onto them.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

If you believe Cruz is part of the establishment you either have not been paying attention or you are outright lying in order to, in your mind, boost Trump. It is not a war between them. It is merely a choice for we the people to make. Let the chips fall where they may. Anyone who stoops to lies is unworthy of the position. We should all have enough respect for the process and the right of our fellow man to choose according to his own conscience that we resist the distortions and outright lies. I’m tired of the bully tactics used by some to pressure influence out of the weak and end up with more than their one vote. It is the way of the left. It should never be practiced by the right.

Apparently so...........

[Lisbon1940]

However we do it, it will be done to everybody entering the U.S., including Anglo Christian conservatives. I hope we don’t hear people complaining about being inconvenienced.

[Osage Orange]

Please....

The GOPe hate Ted Cruz......

[Future Snake Eater]

Of course we can’t. But we can significantly stem the flow, don’t you think?

[Hildy]

Stupid move.

[Parley Baer]

Seeing as Cruz just wants to ban certain regions I see a problem. In the other thread ISIS is going to be making their own passports so they can come in from any country.

Cruz has a corn problem in Iowa:

"How would you verify Muslims wouldn't just lie (taqiyya) and say they were Christian?"

Just ask them a few questions.

[Sacajaweau]

Just serve them the famous BLT for lunch.

[proust]

Have them swear on a stack of bacon.

[angelcindy]

[Gasshog]

Whoops! I can see Ted slipping in the polls and another boost for Trump

Well, its just meant to be, aint No Body like Trump!

"We can't even vet our own President."

Correction: We won't even vet our own President.

"If the Democrats and Republicans were SERIOUS about doing anything other than kissing muzzie ass, they'd REPEAL the Immigration & Naturalization Act of 1952 claiming it's "racist" and send the repeal to Obama's desk for signature, which no doubt Obama would sign."

I don't get it - WHY would we want to repeal it?

[semimojo]

That's why a ban on immigration from countries that support "radical Islam," or even better, Islamic countries, makes sense and is more enforceable.

But it wouldn't have picked up the Tsarnaev brothers or most of the Paris attackers.
