Sen. Ted Cruz rallies 2,000-plus conservatives, evangelicals in Fort Mill
The Herald - Rock Hill, SC ^ | February 11, 2016 | Andrew Dys

Posted on 02/12/2016 12:04:09 AM PST by Cincinatus' Wife

FORT MILL - With just a week left to persuade evangelical South Carolina voters that he is the only Republican alternative to Donald Trump, Ted Cruz and conservative pundit Glenn Beck thrilled more than 2,000 of the faithful late Thursday at MorningStar Fellowship, a Fort Mill megachurch.

Cruz vowed to be the dam that would stop a liberal wave, saying he will fight for the sanctity of marriage, return the military to strength, and secure the borders against a tide of illegal immigration.

"I will stop amnesty and secure the borders," Cruz told The Herald before the event. "I will stand and fight for the Constitution and the sanctity of marriage and religious liberty."

Despite the event's being organized in just 48 hours, Cruz' supporters lined up hours before the event and filled the sanctuary to hear the Texas senator promise to stop liberals dead in their tracks. The crowd jammed the balconies of the one-time hotel on what used to be the PTL ministry property.

[the saga of the Cruz fibs]
Carson stays in to grab a little more attention to sell books and boost his opportunities on the lecture circuit or tv commentating game.

(Harris tries to grab attention for himself, but has failed miserably)
For starters, I read the far fetched statements you made to me in your post #23. (yesterdays thread) This is in regards to Dr Carson's income from his book sales and his income from being on the lecture circuit (ex. -for year 2014). His income from book sales for the year 2014 was $160,000 gross. Figures I've located for Carson's income from his lecture circuit for the year 2014 was $390,000. This, totaled together, is $550,000. A paltry sum considering Carson's $10 million dollars net worth already banked.

Carson hardly needs to be on the book circuit any longer or any circuit for that matter. So, this part of your reply in your post #23 can be chalked down to either wild guessing on your part or you've simply fibbed . With Carson's total net worth of approx. $10 million dollars I'd say he doesn't need to work anywhere for the duration of his life. (even considering these low interest rates in todays market)

I'll have to get back with you in regards to your remaining statements in your post #23 as I'll be doing all 18 holes this coming morning and concluding in late afternoon. This will give you plenty of time Harris for any kind of rebutal to the facts I've posted here.

Below are my sources (but I have three others I referenced) Harris so feel free to look for yourself as I'm not going to do your work for you. Prepare to spend about 45 min. digging as this is how much time I had to spend. (be prepared for small fees, but I'm sure you have at least a few dollars in your wallet for spending frivolously).
Get to Work.

***

Since I'm leisurely retired (54) I had plenty of time to put together and html this post. (20 min. - I'm not billing you for this time Harris - I pardon you)

There are many bizarre things about this election...

Compare and contrast Trump to Rush.... Both have lived very similar lifestyles... What makes Rush conservative and Trump is not? Trump has a better work ethic. I do not think Trump has been divorced and remarried as many times as Rush. Rush has even entered the bizarre world claiming that Cruz is like Reagan... Reagan was a Harvard Law School lawyer?

WOW!!!

You make some good points. I never thought about that comparison Trump vs Rush but you are correct. err,

Trump has a bigger....

plane:)

As usual, all the same lame Trump trolls jump in a Cruz thread to stink up the place.
You people aren't even interested in informing anyone. You just spout the same tired venom.
Piss off.

What on earth are you claiming he has lied about?

Comparing liars is something you probably don’t want to do considering the liar that Trump is.

Cruz is NOT eligible to hold the office of president. He knows it, but the Harvard Law Schooled lawyer cannot resist the temptation to subvert the Constitution.

Why is this so hard to comprehend? Why are so many so easily deceived?

We’re already there. That’s the difference between a Cruz supporter and a Trump supporter.

We are DONE as a representative democracy. IT”S OVER. Trump supporters see Trump as our last “hail mary”.

It’s Nationalism vs. Globalism and Cruz is closer to Globalism.

Why do you want to upset me? Because I'm for Ted? That's it?
I don't go on Trump threads. At all. I will vote for Trump if he's the nominee.
That's why I don't understand the vitriol. Why are you happy to upset me and all Cruz supporters?

On the flip side, if Cruz could attract more people he would rent larger venues. The majority of his events attract just a few hundred or less. 2,000 must be one of his record crowds.

The disgusting ffake Christian Glenn Beck attacked Trump’s faith at this rally as the ‘biggest load I’ve crap I’ve ever seen.’ Stay classy, Glenn.

Wow. You’d rather be in bed with nationalism?!?!?

That is so tremendously dangerous, especially when you are putting all your faith in a narcissist like Trump.

I can think of another charasmatic nationalist leader whom the populace entrusted back in the 1930s. Funny thing is both him and Trump have similar white supremacist friends. (Just yesterday Trump retweeted from a know white supremacist)

Bad idea, just very bad.

As far as Cruz being a globalist, how on earth can anyone say Cruz is a globalist??? He is the furthest thing from that. He is despised by the Washington elite...

Do you actually read what you are typing?

It’s completely illogical.
