And by the way, you should check Cruz’s position on abortion. He doesn’t believe in a national ban and says it should be left to the states. The same position that Trump stated on the interview. You are just making a fool of yourself. Try using rainbow colored fonts next time.

If you think that criticizing your use of huge fonts is a ‘personal attack’, you’re only validating what I said already, that you need professional help.

I never even MENTIONED Cruz OR Trump in my first response to you at post #21. I said that the “size of your font suggsts the size of your mouth”, nothing more and nothing less.

YOU decided to play the victim card and start whining about ‘personal attacks’, wah-wah-wah. What the hell is your problem?

If you behave like a pompous blowhard with gigantic fonts when a normal font will do, you’re gonna get called on it.

Now whine some more about ‘personal attacks’. You’re a one trick pony.

Changing the font to Dingbats would be more appropriate. Might make more sense too. :-)

Looks like your large economy sized font post at #6 has gone bye-bye.

Try reposting in a normal font and you might not generate such unfriendly responses. It’s not difficult. There is a time and place for large fonts, posting a link to a YouTube video is not one of them.

You're confused.

You said:

double-digit IQ poster

YOU being a dumb ass

The size of your font suggests the size of your mouth.

Use a normal font you dunce.

Not personal attacks?

You have nothing but the person attack. Bye.

Those are not personal attacks, those are accurate descriptors of your behavior. Has nothing to do with Trump or Cruz.

Now GTFO. Go mourn over your original post #6, the mods apparently agreed that it needed to be taken down.

I have not made the claim he tried to stop it.

It was voted into law in California in 1994. (I believe it was)

What bothered me about Cruz was that years later he was helping Bush talk ill of it.

Either Ted was urging a policy on Bush, or he was simply helping him draft a good way to dis it.

It was a State’s Rights issue. Why would Ted play into this mindset? He doesn’t believe in State’s Rights?

Here: Check this out for yourself.

Wasn’t sure if I as seeing all your ping list, so I’ll leave that to you.

Yep. Trump keeps ‘losing’ and his numbers keep rising. Cruz’s ‘win’ is backfiring and is going to cost him in the polls. Its called a pyrrhic victory. The only people who think Cruz came out ahead on this are die hard Cruz supporters, not the undecided voter.

You really think you name calling will convert any one to support your candidate. Until the CRUZ group started spamming the threads with insults I supported him.
What I have never understood is how an educated , religious conservative gentleman could have such hateful mean attack dogs .
My conclusion was they were not truly followers of Ted Cruz but we’re plants by the GOPee. That they attack Trump to take him down and misrepresent CRUZ to make him look bad so they will be able to elevate their lower tiered candidate
We know some of them were Walker people who turned out to be donorestablishment backed Some are still around and are very nice people. Some from the times they appear and leave put in eight hour nights. (Probably paid by a not connected to candidate)
So which one are you?

But many here afflicted with TDS rant that Trump’s cross-over appeal is proof positive that Trump isn’t “conservative”, and apparently would rather have a “true” conservative candidate who appeals to such a small sliver of the electorate that they could never be elected, no matter what.

Yes, when you find yourself apologizing to a whole state you have screwed the pooch.

“I think Cruz walked into a trap of his own making both on NY values and on eligibility.”

Agreed. That’s my view of the matter too. Trump is not the one who asked those two questions of Cruz during the debate, and it wasn’t Trump who goaded Cruz into doubling down on his ad hominem attack on the entire population of a state. Cruz did that all by himself.

Looks like what DO was referencing was after 187 passed, and Cruz was advising Bush on how it was wrong.
