Ted Cruz: Obama will ‘start quartering soldiers in people’s homes soon’
Source: The Raw Story
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) on Friday said that President Barack Obama was trying to violate all of the Bill of Rights and would start quartering soldiers in peoples homes soon.
Speaking to the Values Voter Summit in Washington, D.C., Cruz told the audience that the country was facing extraordinary times.
You look at our Constitution, you look at our Bill of Rights, this is an administration that seems bound and determined to violate every single one of our Bill or Rights, he explained.

I dont know that theyve yet violated the Third Amendment, but I expect them to start quartering soldiers in peoples homes soon, the Texas Republican said.

(81,304 posts)Glad you're here. He IS an idiot. And yeah, Grandpa Munster meets Joe McCarthy. Meets ronald reagan's fucking eyebrows and greased-back hair. He's a national disgrace. And he still thinks he's spot on and has the keys the the highway. I think he should firmly and permanently be SHOWN the highway. He needs to be sent back to Texas, where they're so cheap and short-sighted that they've had to start gravel-"paving" some of their roads.

(5,763 posts)Cruz is reaching a new level of stupid that not even Dubya, Palin or the entire 2012 Republican Presidential field hasn't covered. I have to admire it.
I wonder how much longer Republicans are going to pretend that there's nothing wrong with Conservative ideology as it produces idiot after idiot leader. I know they were bare-facing it with Dubya and Palin, claiming there was nothing wrong with them . . . how much longer can they keep it up.

(11,175 posts)During the Bush administration, Keith did a piece in which he went through the Bill of Rights, one by one, detailing how Bush had subverted each one -- with one exception. He concluded:
The president can just take care of that with a signing statement.
