Butt hurt is a New York value. But have no fear, your liberal hellhole as a proctologist on every corner. Good luck!

Have you forgotten that there’s a GOP primary in N.Y., which has a LOT of delegates?
Obviously Cruz has.

Yes, I know. Time was, way back when, the majority of those posting to FR at least knew and understood politics. That time is long gone, I see.

No way, with Cruz as the nominee, that he wins the presidency.

Just in case you haven't seen it, THIS is Trump's "New York Values" Cruz was talking about.

Tell us how those values are different from 0boz0's -- for example -- and why conservatives in ALL states shouldn't reject them as well!

~~~~~~~~~~~

Or -- is that how things normally are in your

, too? '-)

Kid,

I am almost 63 years old and have not been on a payroll since 1988. I earn what I make. I have been a conservative since RR.

You registered on FR before me, sonny, but I have been on this site from the beginning .

I also have earned two Ph.D.’s. Did you graduate high school? That would surprise me.

You are confused....I don't call people "dumb asses"; I bet that you do, though.

My vocabulary is superior to yours, ergo, I would use such terms and words as puerile, political naif,microchephalic, mendacious ( in your case ), or any number of things like that. Now run along and grab a dictionary to see what those words mean. LOL

Can’t argue with your idea at all: in hindsight, Cruz and Quayle should have been better prepared on those two points.

Emotional silliness from Trump. Only liberal journalists and internet cyber fainters with the vapors could pretend that they believe Cruz was talking about the 911 responders.

It's about the pro-abortion, pro-deviance, anti-gun, pro-tax, pro-big-government world that Trump and the Clintons and the NY Times writers and readers all travel in.

I think this post might be your Dan Quayle moment.

Didums, you're still a "kid" and I've been a Conservative longer than you ! Psssssssssssssssssssst.....I worked on both of Reagan's winning presidential campaigns.

Okay, your PHD ( if you truly have one ), beats out my Masters degree, but did you get your degree through a diploma mill in the mail? *snicker*

Yea, but Cruz should have explained himself better, just a couple of extra sentences could have stopped the bleeding. Still, he is a great debater, but everyone flubs up from time to time.

NY has elected Mrs. Bill twice and Mr. Bill twice too. People there like their “bills”.

One just cannot assume that the American people know anything at all really. They have to be led around by the hand, and then maybe they will understand, but probably not.

I have lived or worked in NY most of my life. I currently go to work everyday in the Flatiron district.

Cruz (and Trump on Russert) are exactly correct, the majority values in NYC differ from those values in Iowa and elsewhere in heartland. Significantly.

Anybody pretending this isn't known to everybody in the country is a goofball phony, lying to score political points. And everybody sees right through it.

I always disliked how GHWB seemed to wish he had not picked Quayle and would not defend him that much against unjust attacks from Democrats. This time, Quayle endorsed Jebbie from the start so as not to offend GHWB. In 1999, he had tried to run for President when GWB was also running, and Barbara and GHWB were not amused.

Wouldn't have your entire "burrow" -- "manse" included -- if you offered it as a gift.

FWIW, my oil well pays the taxes on my "homestead", down here in our part of "God's Country"... commonly called "The Northeastern Texas Piney Woods"...

But-- I must admit that today's oil prices aren't doing me any favors -- even though gas was $1.67.9 / gallon here today...
