Mika: Ted Cruz, Like-Minded Republicans Don’t Love America
The Washington Free Beacon ^ | October 7, 2013 | Staff

Posted on 10/07/2013 7:37:44 AM PDT by 2ndDivisionVet

Morning Joe co-host Mika Brzezinski told fellow panelists Monday she thought that Sen. Ted Cruz (R., Texas) and Republicans like him don’t love the country because of their battles to defund Obamacare that she believes led to the government shutdown, drawing the ire of host Joe Scarborough.

“That shows just how much they hate him and don’t love the country, and that’s what’s scary about this,” she said. “If they actually go through with this, this is about something else.”

“Are you saying they don’t love the country?” Scarborough asked.

“Are you saying they do? Ted Cruz and his group loves the country?” she replied. “We disagree.”

“I have never once suggested that even the craziest left-wing lunatic didn’t love their country,” Scarborough said....

The daughter of a neo-communist, who'd be working at the Hot Springs Waffle House were it not for her influential father, has the nerve to impugn Senator Ted Cruz?

Isn’t it patriotic to go against the establishment? Isn’t patriotism jingoistic bible clinging rhetoric?

If Obama and his ilk love the country,why does he want to fundamentally change it?

It's been said that pressure doesn't build character, it reveals it.

Obviously the pressure is getting to Leftists like Mika, Bill Maher, Harry Reid, Nanzi Pelosi, Barack Soetoro, etc.

They're cracking like a cheap crock pot.

Why does anybody still watch them?

A person had only to listen to what Ted Cruz said in those 21 hours, to understand that he loves the American people and the Constitution which has allowed us to prosper all those many years before Obama took over and fundamentally transformed everything. His plea was to “make DC listen”.

But Mika and all the other crappers wouldn’t even listen to ted, much less to the American people. And she’s projecting her own hatred onto Cruz, just like Obama projected his own attention-seeking narcissism onto Cruz.

She obviously confuses “our country” with “our overreaching overspending government”.

Ask the libs this. Will your income tax go down because the government isn’t working? Will the cost of anything from the government go down because the government isn’t working?

No, so this isn’t really a shutdown. It’s just a postponement. You’ll still have to pay everything you would have paid if the government had stayed open and the people being furloughed are going to get back pay in 95% of the cases. Some even who are still working will be making overtime for providing essential services while others are furloughed.

All we’re postponing is what services are available and when some people are getting paid. That’s the American version of “government shutdown” and it really is no crisis. Now, in many other countries, a government shutdown would mean an entirely different thing.

She used to think that, but then her messiah got elected president and she realized that anyone who does not love her messiah does not love the country.

If you LOVE this country, you would be urging resistance to incremental Socialism and Marxist redistribution that is sending this nation over the brink of bankruptcy and burdening the next generations with financial debt they can NEVER pay off (effectively becoming wage slaves to the State).

To quote Woody Guthrie:

"As I went walking I saw a sign there
And on the sign it said "No Trespassing."
But on the other side it didn't say nothing,
That side was made for you and me."

Do you still feel that way, Woody ya commie?
