“I love Free Republic. I love my country. I love God almighty.”

That describes all FReepers. Some of us love the Constitution as well.

You can’t control who stands up and says they like you. Life isn’t facebook.

Of course it isn't, it was you that called Romney a wreck but yet you ignore the rest and all the Romney shenanigans that helped Ted Cruz.

You are definitely trying to have it both ways. If you don't want to see that, that is fine.

People do what people do. Romney? You seem to think that helped Cruz. Romney didn’t play that well in these parts, coming in third behind Santorum and Ron Paul.

“When a people turns it’s back on The Almighty, he allows them to be deluded and destroy themselves.”

I know! I can’t even belive we have a candidate who actually has been called a “king” in a religious context. The Almighty hates kind of thing.

I'm just holding you to what you said about Romney being a wreck and I pointed out the shenanigans both he and the GOPe did to try to help Cruz. You said Romney was a wreck but yet you don't seem to mind the dirty politics from Romney and the GOPe to try to help Cruz, or that you ignore it completely, but it did happen.

Cruz could have condemned the Romney interview/ Fox News debate ambush or at least, stayed on his conservative principles and stayed out of the fray, but we all know, he didn't.

Be fortified FRiend. Many others have endured much worse.

Daniel 3:16-18
16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.
17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.
18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

What, and Trump’s speaking is like yelling fire in a crowded theater?

Please don’t tell me that you really believe that.

The drop COULD be the constant attacks we are under daily.

WY was after the alleged controversy, yet Cruz slaughtered Trump...

Oh please.

Your desperate defense of the indefensible is really pathetic.

Was there even 5000 voters?

Isn’t WY a high Mormon population?

And all these defenses by the people on this thread doesn’t change the truth that Trump’s speech is protected by the First Amendment, whether the Cruzies and the Hillarites or the Berners like it or not.

It also doesn’t change the fact that the political campaigns very deliberately set out to deny Trump the chance to speak.

Doesn’t change the fact that law enforcement deliberately didn’t do their jobs, quite probably in collusion with the campaigns.

These together are a blatant attack on Mr. Trump’s First Amendment rights, not by private citizens but by the government.

And when Cruz, one of the three Bushite stooges stood up and told the entire world that Trump had it coming—and yes, he said exactly that except in weaselly lawyer speak—he very clearly put himself against the First Amendment.

In any other place, Cruz’s comments on Trump’s tone wouldn’t matter so much. But here, tacked onto a response to a flat-out assault on Mr. Trump’s Constitutional rights, tells us all where he stands.

I think it was less than 1000 voters.

Oooohh, Cruz’s arm-twisting thugs managed to get 644 people together to vote for him. Scaaaaaaary.

Whoop-de-do.

If you’re really hanging your hat on Wyoming, you’re either desperate or deluded.

971 total caucus votes in Wyoming.

Cruz got 644 of them.

And this is somehow the day WHEN EVERYTHING FINALLY CHANGED for the Cruz campaign.

Desperation is an ugly thing.

Let's get real.

It makes no difference what Cruz does or doesn't at this point.

You Trump supporters are just entertaining yourselves making enemies at this point.

You're making it personal.

Not about issues.

Not about America.

Romney was a wreck and still is.

Cruz has support from all kinds of people. So what?

Romney is responsible for what Romney does.

I didn't see the Romney Fox interview. I haven't been watching tv. But unless Cruz was sitting there with Romney in his lap and his hand up his back playing 'Jeff Dunham' with him, I would say Cruz shouldn't have to spend his time walking back what every person who supports him says.

Cruz didn't say it.

IF that was the case, Donald Trump would have to hire more staff to walk back all the photoshops, lying headlines of cobbled half quotes and bs opinions, and other crap that has been spewed by Trump supporters.

Me, You aren't going to change my mind.

Until the General, this is the only vote I get.

No one here has the contempt for the GOPe I do.

You guys want the guy who played both sides of the fence and is reaching for the brass ring. Well, that's Yuuuge. You'll own it. Bye.
