St. Cruz: "Any president that doesn't start the day on his knees isn't fit to be commander in chief"

[kpete]

Cruz, Huckabee, Jindal preach conservative principles

.......................

When Cruz took the stage, he didn't hesitate in diving into how religion and government should be connected.

"Any president that doesn't start the day on his knees isn't fit to be commander in chief," Cruz passionately said.

Yes. They are.

[Orrex]

3. No sex threads!

[malthaussen]

10. Beat me to it.

Ah, so to speak.

11. K & R for rug rash Cruz

[Mass]

15. My first thought too

[liberal N proud]

19. I was about to go find a graphic

[Warren DeMontague]

50. Perhaps this one?

An actual Ted Cruz poster.

That is SO not his real body, BTW.

[Beacool]

41. LOL!!!

[misterhighwasted]

4. Oh Haahaha TED! I'll wait for that to become a cartoon drawing.

"Any president that doesn't start the day on his knees isn't fit to be commander in chief," Cruz passionately said. 

P a s s i o n a t e TED.

[Punkingal]

5. Yeah, on his knees with God telling him "War, War, War"

While people go hungry and lose their jobs, and have no health care. He is a demented, sick cretin. I don't care how many degrees he has and what colleges they are from.

[2naSalit]

28. I thought he meant "...on his knees"

...before his financiers.

[SammyWinstonJack]

35. That's how Cruz starts and ends his day.

[2naSalit]

36. I don't doubt that in the least. nt

[Hepburn]

6. Well, it depends what he/she is doing on bended knees.

[dickthegrouch]

42. John Cleese:

The three differences between American and British people:

We speak English and you don't.
When we hold a World Championship for a particular sport, we invite teams from other countries to play, as well.
When you meet the head of state in Great Britain, you only have to go down on one knee.

[misterhighwasted]

7. I have to go check Twitter..

They'll have a ball with this one

[onehandle]

8. Why are conservatives so obsessed with others' sex lives? nt

[misterhighwasted]

13. Its a Good Old Boy thing

Snickering locker room talk meant only for the boys

[ryan_cats]

9. It

It worked for GWB, when he had too much tequila (and pretzels) the night before.

[Hepburn]

12. Worshiping the porcelain god -- seems routine for Dumbya! n/t

[ecstatic]

14. Wow! His wife is lucky!

I agree wholeheartedly!

[saltpoint]

16. Huckabee won the Iowa GOP caucus in

2008. Just two cycles later, he has been booted off the GOP main debate stage.

And Ted Cruz appeared to have won the hearts of the folks at the Conference.

While Huckabee's folksy theocratic fascism won the day in 2008, Cruz brings more fire to the same ideology.

It occurs to me that the people attending this Conference are probably not possessed of the sound judgment necessary to operate a motor vehicle on the nation's roads.

Reports from the Conference suggested that Cruz was met with enthusiastic applause.

[randome]

17. On his knees with a beaming Jesus giving him a hand -so to speak.

Sounds like a scene Ben Carson would have framed and hanging next to his bowling trophies.

[PSPS]

31. LOL

[SheilaT]

18. I'd say what we need almost more than anything

is an avowed agnostic/atheist/unbeliever in the top job. All this religious bullshit is a huge part of why this country is in such sad shape.

[2naSalit]

30. +1!

[TwilightGardener]

20. Creepy-ass clown.

[Orrex]

54. And/or creepy ass-clown

[Archae]

21. The kooks are sure at that conference.

Including Mike Huckabee, Bobby Jindal and Ted Cruz.

38. All of them in one place...

what an opportunity for god or the devil, if there were such things.

[Old Codger]

22. Something that contiues to amaze me

Where are all the "normal" religious people at? I would think that they would be screaming from every corner denying any connection between any "real" religious beliefs and these kooks.
Don't they understand that their silence is tantamount to endorsement ?

[stopbush]

26. "Normal" religious people are part of the same problem.

Which is to say they hold the conceit that their version of make believe is real.

It's only a matter of degree to which a religious person oushes their fantasies on others.

[Old Codger]

27. This seems to be true

Most of them are similarly deluded...

[hifiguy]

53. A point Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins have been pounding on

for years. And it is the absolute truth.

The Abrahamic religions are the most effective tools ever created for turning people into mindless zombies suckers who will believe anything.

Mr Carlin?

[NickB79]

23. Larry Craig, paging Larry Craig

Your skills are needed.

[2naSalit]

32. Priceless!!!

[tishaLA]

44. my first thought too nt

[ScreamingMeemie]

24. It's WHO, you dumbass... "Any president WHO..."

UGH

[stopbush]

25. So sick of the Xians pushing their make believe on the rest of us.

[Rex]

29. Sorry too easy...

Cruz makes it too easy to make fun of him.

[wendylaroux]

33. what I have said for years..

[ladjf]

34. I was going to make my negative comment but you guys

have summed it very well without my help.

[smirkymonkey]

37. Nutcase.

[smirkymonkey]

39. My favorite comment from the original article:

"It's funny how these self-proclaimed "I'm more conservative than you are" idiots are all getting their clocks cleaned by guys with ZERO political experience.

Ben Carson and Donald Trump have never so much as held the office of Dog Catcher yet they are kicking the crap out of these buffoons.

What's that tell you?"

[hobbit709]

40. "Better to die on your feet than to live on your knees"

[rufus dog]

43. I find this statement refreshing and support Cruz

How often do you get an honest admission from a candidate that he is a Koch sucker?

[GeorgeGist]

45. Freedumb™

[MurrayDelph]

46. Since (except in certain circumstances) Jews don't kneel to pray

Is he saying that Jews shouldn't be President?

We know he THINKS that, but is he really saying it?

[Monk06]

47. Except if that president is on his knees on a prayer rug facing Mecca. Then that ain't allowed

[pokerfan]

48. And the pastor called for executing gays

Again...

During his remarks, Swanson reiterated his view that both the Old and New Testament require the death penalty for the crime of homosexuality, as well as his position that any Christian who attends a gay wedding can only do so in order to hold up a sign informing the couple that they ought to be put to death.

[hifiguy]

49. That creature is a pure psychopath/sociopath

and indescribably dangerous. He makes Hannibal Lecter look as sane as you or I.

He and Mental Ben both belong locked in a highly secure facility, getting horse-sized suppositories of Thorazine or Haldol several times each day.

[Warren DeMontague]

51. What about FDR?

[valerief]

52. Why do presidents have to start their days giving blow jobs? Doesn't sound right to me. nt

[struggle4progress]

55. What a great campaign slogan! "I will bring America to its knees!"

[herding cats]

56. He's vying to pick up the Carson supporters now.

Which is kind of scary since some of them will no doubt buy his shtick.

[madinmaryland]

57. Heh! So St. Cruz goes teabagging for Jesus!!

[Lyric]

58. Does being on his knees in front of the Koch brothers really count?

[Person 2713]

59. This guy on his knees?
