10 years.... 9years..... oh this may take a while.

But Teddy if you want to prove you don't love the 1% introduce a bill to tax them more and stop the taxless wealth transfers.

I have been a great believer in spewing back in there face the venom these twisted demented people engage in. These tactics of outrageous, nonsense, and ludicrous, fomentation's get them in the media. Well, I have been a huge advocate of fighting them where they live. Just start putting out bigger nonsense than they spew and see what starts to happen. Example,...Lets for instance say "An unconfirmed source has divulged that they have proof that Ted Cruz is a satanist. Have the legitimate media put this out . Then keep it up with all sorts of questionable stories about top republiCONS and better yet, people like Shawn Hannity ,Limbaugh ext,ext..see how they like having to spend most of the time defending themselves against spurious accusations. These repubiCONS are black belt masters at this sort of obfuscation...Lets please give some love back to them..!

They think they are looking out on the world and all they see is themselves.

A test of intelligence for animals is to put a mark on their face and see if they try to rub it off when they see themselves in a mirror. I doubt Cruz could pass that test.

Nothing spells revenge like bad makeup. Now only if he/she would apply some excess rouge to this assclown. LOL

We've heard from Mitt that GOPers are going to help raise up the poor, we're hearing from Crazy Teddy that Democrats support the rich... I don't believe this is a coincidence. Just like the infamous 'compassionate conservative' I fully believe that there's an orchestrated campaign that's just getting started and is going to play all the way through 2016. We'd damned well better quit giggling at this crap and get to work debunking it.

I want to see any one of the talking heads of the MSM counter the bullshit spewed by Cruz or his ilk with something like, "Judging by you statement, I see you have a prescription for medical marijuana. Do you also support the efforts to legalize it"?

That's one thing that the Republithugs have got down pat. And Ted Cruz is a master of it, and reeks of hypocrisy.
