Ted Cruz is Canadian

[scott]

He may also be a Cuban Citizen, as the Cuban Cons ution states any person born to a Cuban Citizen abroad is automatically a Cuban Citizen.

[boutons_deux]

last night, he said "if" he were a Canadian citizens (Harvard lawyers, even brilliant ones, have trouble knowing if they are citizens of which country), he would renounce his Canadian citizenship.

Ted Cruz' Birth Certificate Proves He's Eligible to Run...For Canadian PM


"Orly Taitz, perhaps the most famous birther short of Donald Trump, wrote earlier this month that Obama had so corrupted the rule of law that it no longer mattered whether Cruz was legally a citizen."

Taitz wth the goods, as always

congrats to Dallas Morning News for exposing Cruz as a fool. He didn't know he was a Canadian citizen!

Headline: Senator Cruz may have to wait eight months to stop being Canadian

[CosmicCowboy]

Seems kind of irrelevant since there is not a chance in he becomes POTUS.

Just fun to give due attention to an attention .

Glad to know Nbadan is getting to the bottom of this (and WTC7 )

Say what you want about Cruz, but if you think he's going to melt down like that, you have never seen him speak.

Yeah, you may disagree with his politics but he is a smart sum . You don't clerk for the cheif justice of the supreme court if you aren't the best and brightest.

Harvard, then SCOTUS clerk, yep very smart as lawyer.

Which is why he's just another s bag as politician. He knows the he spews is pure that panders to tea baggers.

As opposed the the politicians that spew to pander to the Boutons of the world.

^ If he's as smart as you say then he wouldn't be pandering to the missing teeth population of our country that will get him only 2% of the electorate...if he thinks resurrecting McCarthyism will win him the white house he's nuttier than a bag of trail mix....he's on the losing side...the tea party's days are numbered...I hope he runs against Hillary it will be a thrashing the likes of which we'll never see again....but very welcomed in my eyes...

What's sad is he knows the people supporting him are dumber than a box of rocks...but he's having his 15 min of fame and that's all that matters to him...having his Cuban name in the history books...but make no mistakes history won't be kind to him...he's worse than a cop that sells drugs

[angrydude]

Honestly, the only reason the left hates him so much is because he is such a good public speaker.

For the life of me I can't understand why else they hate him so much. As far as I can tell he hasn't actually done anything.

So he wants to defund obamacare, like 1/2 of the the other republicans do too. What makes him so special?

[boutons_deux]

Like Fox Repug Propaganda, he's mostly a huge liar with lies meant to inflame the ignorant bubbas who takes his word just like they believe Fox

http://www.politifact.com/personalities/ted-cruz/

during his Senate campaign, I posted a list of his worst quotes, can't find it now, but they were Louie Gohmert-esque.

And of course lots Repug Senators hate his crazy, lying ass for being even more obstructive, destructive than themselves.

http://articles.washingtonpost.com/2...-gop-tea-party


He was a highly popular hit at Harvard, too

http://www.thedailybeast.com/article...-the-same.html

He's a total fraud. He's supposedly so smart, a skilled debater, but the and lies he spews, aimed at the TX bubbas and other red-state assholes, prove he's fraud. He won't accomplish anything positive, only negative, only obstructive.

For Ted Cruz, crazy is a family business




“Now is the best time we have to defund Obamacare,” Cruz told the crowd of 1,000. “We’re seeing bipartisan agreement that the wheels are coming off.”

The wheels came off the Heritage event, though, when Cruz’s father, minister Rafael Cruz, took the stage to close it out. When it comes to red meat and red-baiting, Ted is a piker compared to his Cuban refugee father, who talks of Castro’s tyranny but never mentions the fact that he supported the Cuban communist leader’s revolution against Batista. Again we heard Cruz Sr. warn that Barack Obama is leading us toward socialism. This time, though, he didn’t merely exaggerate, he outright lied, insisting “Sarah Palin was right” about death panels in Obamacare.

Cruz was oddly specific, as though he’d had a very vivid hallucination: There is a 16-member death panel, he told the rapt crowd, that “will be implemented next year.” Those “16 bureaucrats will decide” not only whether you get life saving treatment, but even knee surgery, Cruz warned the audience, farcically. Instead of a “knee operation,” maybe you’ll just get “a wheelchair” and pain medication instead. Cruz also predicted shortages of aspirin and a hike in staph infections under Obamacare, just like in his native Cuba (although many of Cuba’s medical shortages are due to the U.S. embargo.)

Essentially, according to Cruz, the death panel will tell many of us “Go home and die!”

And to think Republicans complained about Rep. Alan Grayson’s rhetoricback in the day.

The Cruz and Son roadshow would scare normal voters, but it seems ideal for a GOP primary. Even in Texas, Cruz is the state’s GOP voters’ top pick for a presidential nominee, above Gov. Rick Perry, who is hoping to ride off into the sunset away from the statehouse and toward another primary run. Not so fast, Governor. Cruz had a solid lead even before Perry reversed himself and asked for at least some Medicaid funding for Obamacare, making himself obviously a “squish.”

At what point might Cruz Sr. become a drawback for his son? Can you say “never?” In the important Tea Party primary within the GOP primary, he is leaving Marco Rubio and Rick Perry in the dust, and is neck and neck with Rand Paul nationally. (That’s why Cruz allies are accusing Paul allies of pushing questions about Cruz’s eligibility to be president especially in Iowa, although the two men profess to be friends.)

It looks increasingly like Ted Cruz (and his father) dream of him as the 2016 nominee. But so do Democrats.

Ted Cruz supporters right down there with those supports of Repug winners like Cain, pitbull , and Santorum , a crazy-assed, extremist, ignorant fringe.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Ted Cruz is like Antonin Scalia......he's a smart guy on paper and a well respected academic/lawyer but inside him there's a slice of Mic e Bachman/Louie Gohmert that's gonna rear its ugly head at the wrong time if he runs for president.

[boutons_deux]

I think Cruz' verbal abilities have conned himself into his own fringe, self-regarding bubble like he cons, lies to tea baggers that ACA is stoppable.

ACA is not even stoppable in those red-states committed to ing up ACA so they can blame Obama for their state's ed up ACA and their states' citizens denied health care.

Cruz's Supporters Don't Question Eligibility

My favorite part:

“As far as I’m concerned, Canada is not really foreign soil,” she said. Katok said she was more disturbed by Obama's "strong ties to Kenya," the African country where his father was born. She also said she didn’t like the fact that Obama did not release his long-form birth certificate during the 2008 race.

That's the kind of critical thinking the VRWC wants to instill in all for-profit-gouging charter schools of indoctrination.

Get over it. Accept defeat neocons. This bubba was born on Canadian soil so he can't be president of America. Case closed.

As mentioned earlier, the law doesn't work that way.

Get over it. Accept defeat neocons. This bubba was born on Canadian soil so he can't be president of America. Case closed.

The bigger part is that thus so ends the Kenya question (it wont, because the far right are loons) unless they are ready to dump Cruz by the wayside.

Neocons aren't disestablishmentarian or what libertarians really are. Neocons are warmonger Regan types like McCain.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Ted Cruz has plenty of neo-con in him. He's a pro-Israel shill who fear mongers about "Sharia Law".

birther alert! Where's Trump?
