I am a ‘conservative’ I do NOT deflect. Here is why the ol ‘face of God’ called Mitch the Senate a liar... I do my homework.

Mitch McConnell: Why no, the Senate won’t pass a resolution affirming Cruz’s eligibility like it did for McCain

I understand your point. You both are making it, it is fair enough, but it’s wrong.

Nothing about the past interactions of Cruz and Boner negates that Boner’s extreme animosity to Cruz comes from Cruz calling out the GOP leadership for their passivity and inactivity.

The fact that 20 years ago Boner’s office had the law firm that Cruz worked for on retainer and Cruz, who was in his 20’s, was assigned the case underscores Cruz’ point.

Boner certainly wouldn’t call him Lucifer for working on a lawsuit for Boner 20 years ago.

I have deflected NOTHING. I live in realville, unlike some radio talk show hustlers. I do NOT take kindly to those that call themselves 'conservative' and subvert our Constitution.

Stomping your feet and yelling you are a conservative doesn’t make it so...

A time for truth, has showed up in 2016, and Cruzisms are left a wanting. I know what I am, and I know truth. I discard the fakes that use the 'conservative' lifestyle, like elton jon weddings.

Finnegan should SELF-DEPORT. JR has been as nice as he could be in making it clear that FR will not enable Globalist Lyin' Ted to use FR as a propaganda site for Cruz's apparatchiks.

It's rude beyond words, and shows a total lack of respect for Finnegan to pollute this Patriotic site. This is Jim's house. He invited you in, and what did you do? You crapped turds on his carpet.

He forgot to include the Goldman Sachs "loan" (LOL) on his campaign filings with the FEC.

Scofflaw that he is, he is disregarding two notices from the FEC for an explanation of: 1. for the $500,000 gift to Cruella Fiarino; and 2. the millions appearing in his campaign from Wall Street banks.

Cruz is "running out the clock" on these. Though the demands for answers by the FEC have deadlines---something very fishy that he gets away with messing around with the FEC. Almost makes you think it's....rigged.

Cruz remembers when he was just out of law school and Cruz’s boss was Boehner’s lawyer for one case.

I don’t have to choose to believe, I can look at the facts. And it is absurd to think that Boehner, in 1996 or 1997, would have hired Ted Cruz, who graduated in 1995, as his Private Counsel. Boehner’s attorney was Mike Carvin and that is a historical fact, even though it might not fit your Cruz is a liar meme.

Boehner himself has said that Cruz was his Private Counsel.

That is also a fact, which you're free to dispute with Boehner.

Boehner’s attorney was Michael Carvin. From a Wed., March 3, 1999, article in the Cincinnati Enquirer:

“Despite no longer being in the House leadership, Rep. John Boehner served notice Tuesday he will plow ahead with a lawsuit against Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Wash., over an alleged leak of a cellular phone conversation.

Mr. Boehner, R-West Chester, had indicated after losing his leadership post in November that he might refer the matter to the House Ethics Committee.

But Tuesday his attorneys filed another brief in the case in the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.

Oral arguments are scheduled April 30.

For the courts not to rule the leak violated Mr. Boehner’s rights would be a major blow to privacy law, said his attorney, Michael Carvin of Washington.”

This is who the Cruzers on Free Republic are supporting and taking sides with.
