Yes, he’s a creep. Yes, he is the Zodiac killer

Excuse me, but

Good LOrd, no kidding! Where are the big boy pants here? Geeshus, it’s a 3-week pause. What’s so magical about 3 weeks? Don’t know but the wrist-cutting is just amazing. I’m stunned. FR used to full of tough and fair-minded considerations and now it’s all over because Trump didn’t draw blood? That makes us no better and no more effective than the Dems.

It’s upsetting for sure. I am very very disappointed in the situation. We don’t know all the info Trump is looking at. We are skeptical because our govt is most often out of touch, it’s true. But there are people in DC still fighting. Are they perfect? No! Are you? Am I? No! Is there any doubt Cruz loves this country? I don’t have any and that matters a lot to me.

I’m not going to pack up my bags and check out of the fight just yet. I hope all patriots hang in there. It’s not over until it’s over and this is far from over. Don’t let all that negative media fatigue make you give up. Dems are counting on that. Do give them that pleasure.

[austinaero]

Don’t give the Dems that pleasure.
Don’t do it!

[Theo]

Still butt-hurt, I see.

To quote Jim Robinson, “If you’re going to badmouth Cruz, don’t do it on FR!” ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3687890/posts )

I GUARANTEE you in 3 weeks absolutely NOTHING is going to change.

They couldn't fix it in 5 weeks so I too doubt that another 3 weeks will make a difference.

Trump just needs to declare a national emergency and get it over with.

I recall a time here when when other establishment career politicians, such as George Bush, were protected and people were banned for saying the wrong thing which is obviously easy to do in heated political discussions. It's like throwing out raw meat and not expecting flies to land on it. No?

It would seem to me, if you have to censor comments about what can be said about any given politician, you're no better than the leftist who want to stifle, censor and ban all speech/comments they happen to disagree with.

I have a question for ya Theo. Will advisories be made and will policy/rules implemented protecting Trump from those who bad mouth him?

[Jim W N]

You’re on my No-Fly Zone list, but I’ll give you this for your answers.

The Two Rules of Tariffs:

Rule 1. A tariff is a tax and no tax ever creates wealth, it only dissipates wealth.

Rule 2. Refer to Rule 1.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I am glad federal workers will finally be paid.

Where were you in the summer of 2013 when DoD civilians lost a month's pay and were never recouped? And this asshat claims to be a conservative that supports national defense.

[Mariner]

When a routine political statement from a backbench Senator and failed nominee is breaking news, we’re having a really, really bad news day.

Or, I should say a no-news day.

Hell, the GOP has half dozen of those they could trot out.

[Segovia]

bravo!! applause, whistles, cheers! from a former federal employee......

truer words were never spoke!

[i_robot73]

>Great statement by Cruz

Dog squeeze! Just more bloviation by those whom love to hear themselves speak.

- ZERO vs. the usual suspect RINOs undermining
- ZERO re: the PAID month vacation via non-essential (should be TERMINATED)
- ZERO vs. the spending priorities of the (R)N(C)...not just the Leftists

And to hell w/ the ‘emergency’ OR the wall. The President need only do TWO things (w/i his authority & powers):

1) Terminate the illegal, unconstitutional Welfare State
2) ENFORCE THE FRIGGIN’ LAWS ALREADY ON THE BOOKS!! Start w/ the GOVT EMPLOYEES aiding/abetting/colluding/giving comfort....THEN work down

No wall required, no unconstitutional ‘emergency powers’, no outlay of taxpayer $$

Well said! Nice to see some adult common sense for a change.

Rule 1. A tariff is a tax and no tax ever creates wealth, it only dissipates wealth. Rule 2. Refer to Rule 1.

Our founders would have made sure your type swung from a rope. Why do so called conservative protect the damn income tax, are you a secret Commie? I think so.

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

That was during the moratorium when he was running against Beta Beto. Better the man whose father was involved with the JFK assassination than a filthy commie and fake Mexican.

[Jim W N]

Another Leftist answer that avoids the substance and attacks the person.

Here’s an amended, easier-to-read Two Rules of Tariffs:

Rule 1. A tariff is a tax, and

Rule 2. No tax ever creates wealth, it only dissipates wealth.

I refer you back to these Two Rules of Tariffs as answer to your generally nonsensical and non-sequitur replies in the future.

We need to have a beer together because you ARE FUNNY

I refer you back to these Two Rules of Tariffs as answer to your generally nonsensical and non-sequitur replies in the future.

Explain why tariffs and duties are in the US Constitution but the income tax the you globalist progressives love so much was not.

Somewhere there's a 45 minute version of this, I'd started to watch it on the Roku and konked out about 12 minutes into it. Senator Ted Cruz schools some Demwit Demagogue from Colorado. The title of it was something like "People demand Pelosi resign" (for some reason) and of course the Google leftists are cookin' the search results, as usual.
