Things are a-changin', Bigun.

Things never change. There is nothing new under the sun. Only mislead creatures bowing to sophistry, and running to their prophets with itching ears.

Cruz is beginning to resemble a spineless jelly fish to me. I supported him when it was him vs. Trump.

It's either that or he's privy to details the media isn't about all of this *shrug*

So people from Washington DC somehow know more about this than people from Alabama that actually went out trying to verify these claims? 

Luther Strange's campaign tried and failed to confirm Roy Moore allegations



How would they get the inside dope when Luther Strange couldn't do it,  and he presumably has all sorts of supporters in these areas of Alabama?   


I have read that McConnell's people spent something like 30 million to get Strange elected,  and yet it didn't work.   If they had anything,  they would have put it out there then.

It was just a theory.  Didn't say it was true or that I believed it.  I very much believe this is a dirty trick by McConnell and Strange.  It just goes to show how low McConnell and company will stoop to make sure "their guy" gets elected.

Contrary to Donald J. Trump, yes, the WAPO, the NYTimes are both honorable organizations.

Especially when compared to FOXNEWS, otherwise known as State TV.

You really are a progressive! I knew it, thanks for confirming that you are
a Marxist/Globalist/Progressive.

It's pro-life to advocate killing the innocent families of terrorists.
It's pro-life to say there are "good people" in the white supremacist movement.
It's pro-life to break up families by deporting parents who've lived here for 30 years.

Yeah, he's pro-life all right.

Wow, you're radical progressive! You were never a conservative
you're the exact opposite.

War is hell and yes non-combatants are often targeted and killed.
IIRC Trump said both sides were at fault, which is exactly right.
What part of illegal alien do you not understand? Illegal is illegal.

That was my first thought and hopefully that is the case as I've been a huge Cruz supporter for a very long time.  Unfortunately, my second thought was that he is up for re-election in 2018 and he now is fully aware of what McConnell and cronies can do to unseat him and perhaps they have once again told him he needs to play ball.  I would like to think that he still refuses to give up his integrity.

More green cards,

Criticizing the white supremacists in Charlottesville, well after the event, say 10 days later.

And this,

There is nothing wrong with doing whatever might be necessary to please his constituency and that's what I think Cruz is doing.

Roy Moore, a Democrat until 1992, when these alleged things happened.

[CatherineofAragon]

[TomSea]

Again, Moore allegedly did these things when he was a Democrat, '78ish until 1985.

You've got someone who doesn't deny that possibly some of his dates were teenagers and then, you have eyewitness, multiple eyewitnesses apparently, testimony that Moore was banned from Malls because he was cruising for teens, underage or over age, that is how it comes out simply as teens.

But now, Cruz is suppose to take some principled stand, "innocent until proven guilty" and the like? That could be the correct stance but I doubt if Cruz coming out against the guy is a big risk to take. Romney and Lee may have taken a bit of a risk by doing this so early.

Cruz even added the extra, if it can be proven, Moore should possibly face criminal charges.

Rush was the one who said it happened when Moore was a Dem, right?

So switching parties magically redeems past actions.   Good to know.

This was one of those times that Rush should have just kept his mouth shut.

@txradioguy

Lol, I completely agree with you.
