“It’s so sad the Trump people resort to these attacks on family/heritage/Christianity. I could pay articles on Trump’s connections to the Mob, his father’s slum lord/shady businesses practices, Trump’s infidelities, etc etc.”

You mean those haven’t appeared on FR?! Not once?

Stop feigning innocence. Cruz folks have been on a tear for weeks. But now you feel slandered and hurt because someone slap at Cruz?

#2 If this stuff is true (dont know either way) then so what? Either Cruz embraces it, and it’s a positive for him, or he better have the ability to dispel it because the press in the general election will have no issue running with this, and they wont care how much you guys shake your fists at your computer screen.

Nope. I asked you to bring it on( on your threat to do a part two). So far all I am getting is empty bluster and prevarication and evasive tactics.
Still waiting..for your part two. Don’t be scared. BRING IT ON!

Why on earth did Cruz release this video:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jkQz8vZ0jsU

His campaign is out of control.

They are either stupid or they have been infiltrated.

Between this and yesterday's CNN stripping video, I feel like I'm now in the Twilight Zone.

The Hillary media must have all this stuff. The fact that they're not rebroadcasting it 24/7 suggests to me that this is powder they're keeping dry, for use when and if Cruz is the nominee. If they can knock down Trump and let Cruz move into the vacuum, then they can destroy him with this.

Cruz still readily wins every single polling thread on who Freepers support. You are getting clobbered mate.

You realize Freepers haven't picked a single president since inception, except GW which most here regretted, right?

“You are correct about many of the posters on FR not being Conservative. “

Again with the Cruz supporters deeming all those that support Trump of not being “true conservatives”.

Well I dont consider you to be one. See how easy that works?

The mainstream voter doesn’t want too much religion in their politics. Ted will turn them off. Sad, yet true.

A true news story, or a legit opinion column, includes the name of who wrote it. Otherwise, it's just a rant by another anonymous internet troll ashamed to attach his/her real name to his/her word

Sounds a lot like Dianne Feinstein's views. She also wants to mandate real names for commenters. Most of us understand that only conservatives have their lives turned upside down for a mere opinion. Unlike you, I respect my fellow FReepers and their written opinions, regardless of what screen name they choose to represent them.

“At the very least, he is “saintly”. Hyperbole is a feature, not a bug.”

The guy was being sarcastic.

It’s not rocket science. Both men have a record. One is conservative, one isn’t. Spout all the words you like. That’s the bottom line.

A conservative will support a conservative. A moderate will not when there is a moderate/liberal available. Conservatism is well defined. You are with it or you are with something else. Binary. You don’t get to redefine it so you can sit at the table too with non conservative beliefs.

“The Hillary media must have all this stuff. The fact that they’re not rebroadcasting it 24/7 suggests to me that this is powder they’re keeping dry, for use when and if Cruz is the nominee.”

And this is the thing the Cruz people NEED to be looking for. Instead of harping scorn on the guy that posted it, they should wonder “how much of this is true”, and “when would the general media spring it”.

If it is true (even 45%) then they will use it.

Your the one that saying Jim should lose money on this site

Still making things up?

I just asked you if your going to make up the difference when and if Trump supporters leave....

This site was been here far before Trump even thought of running for presidents. Trumpbots did not create or sustain Freerepublic through the years. Trumpbots only came into existence of his year.

No one should be forced to use their real name. But then their posts should be considered in context when they write editorials. I use my real name and stand behind what I write.

GPH, in response to my question about your profile, you replied, "I have absolutely no clue what you're talking about. It's literally a picture of an alien and a quote from Augustine, nothing more."

Since I was drawing conclusions about your motives in writing these statements accusing Cruz of ties to Dominionism, I felt it only fair to give you a chance to explain your profile, in case I may be totally wrong about it. But apparently you do not want to explain it, so I will be a bit more blunt and tell you what was going through my head and give you another chance to clear it up.....

Your pic of an Alien saying "Humans"..... comes across to me as perhaps your interpretation of a frustrated Alien, frustrated with the stupidness of the human race (or a good bit of it). Add to that your quote from Augustine that defends the Biblical concept that we are all sinful, and our good only comes from "Grace" through Jesus Christ. So perhaps the Alien is frustrated that humans cannot understand that concept.

On the surface, I somewhat agree with you. It is frustrating. But the very fact that you have an Alien stating this fact, is what bothers me. Many Christians, me included, believe that Aliens from space are demons which Satan will use to deceive the world into following the Antichrist. Why would you use a "demon" to emphasis a Biblical concept? The implications there are many and troubling.

I haven’t seen Cruz go too far on religion for the electorate.
I am concerned that the media can make it appear he’s gone too far.

I sure can, but it wasn’t me that said this statement...I’m waiting for an answer, Smokin Joe seems to think Trump supporters shouldn’t be on this site because we are ‘conservative’ enough....so I asked him if we Trump supporters left, would the Cruz supporters be able to support this site....and maybe he should talk to Jim before making a blanket statement like that...

We Trump supporters could have said that to Cruz supporters but we have more class than that...so what is it? Where do the rest of you stand?
