Tea Party now lists Senator Cruz as a RINO

[DCPatriot]

@Hat In Ring the only way you mop the floor around here In any way shape ornform...is as the janitor.  You sure aren’t going to do it in any other way. 

I’ve been dealing with your “I’m not conservative that you/I’m the ultimate conservative” type for almost 2 decades on forms like this.

You’re not new and either is your act.

LOL!

Next generation coming up, @txradioguy   They have all the answers. 

I remember "The Brandon Twins" back on the Orioles' Usenet newsgroup back in '96 and their Wire-to-Wire season in '97.

Kids.  Cal Ripken, Jr. groupies.   smh.....

They're probably either brain surgeons or computer hackers today.

Usenet...now that’s a name I haven’t heard in a long time. That and the old BBS sites are where I got my start. Look how far we’ve come.

Gopher!!

I think that was created around the time the first 800 baud modem was manufactured. #DamnYoureOld

Yeah, I had a screaming fast Commodore 64 and a 300 baud modem.  The first thing I did with Gopher was to find a schematic for an adapter to hook up a 1.200 baud Hayes to the half-assed RS232 interface on the C-64.

I first got online with a VT100 video terminal on my Sym-1 and a 300 baud modem.

We were just doing timeshare with the mainframe at UVa from the teletype widgets on a phone line modem. I still hate paper tape...

@Hat In Ring

Let me give you a little history lesson sonny.  "The (modern)  TEA PARTY" was a brainchild of conservative Chicago Mercantile Trader Rick Santelli, who led a rant against new Obama stimulus initiatives in February 2009.  It was born in the concept of fiscal conservative government policy.  Something your faction is oblivious too.  Kooks like you have hijacked the Tea Party movement, and are a freakin' joke.  I kid you not......You f'ers are absolute method actors for "The Onion"

Here is another set of facts for you and (coug cough) Kiddie Corp Tea-Cuppers . The following is a contribution of each president towards the national debt, after it reaches $30T this year.  Numbers cited are in $Trillions.    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/how-much-each-us-president-has-contributed-to-the-national-debt-2018-10-29

And don't forget....   Trump did this in only 4 years

Trump- 13.7
Obama- 8.6
G.W. Bush- 5.9
Clinton- 1.4
G.H.W. Bush- 1.6
Reagan- 1.9
Carter- 0.3
Ford- 0.2
Nixon- 0.1

So don't give me this Tea Party song and dance around Trump.  And now you are calling people like Cruz and Buckley Libertarians?  Do you like people laughing at you? 

And last....Your last ridiculous post came across as a veiled threat.  I seriously doubt there are 6698 nutjobs who share your warped thinking.  You know, I could throw a few facts of how Trump wrote checks supporting the Clintons, made pro-choice comments, and used to be a registered democrat not that long ago.  But I prefer taking the high road, and support this POTUS for re-election in a conservative-populist coalition.  Because we at TBR want to defeat Biden, and the other enemy dimocrats, not smear good solid conservative legislators. 

You OTOH, prefer to stir shit, bringing up old debunked accusations, and making absurd statements.  In any case, I've wasted too much time already responding to your silliness. 
 

That's B.S. buddy boy! Both Rick Santelli and Ron Paul have claimed to be the founders of the Tea Party but the truth is the Tea Party is the old Ross Perot Political Reform Party from the mid 1990's. "The Reform Party" is still around but all the Reform Party supporters went back to the Republican party after year 2001 and laid dormant until 2008 when the commie barack obama emerged to run for the presidency. The "Ross Perot Reform Party" emerged again and took on the name "Tea Party" and began protesting the higher taxes the new commie president was going to bring. Then the libertarian party jumped in on the protests that were never theirs introducing the "Tea Party Express" and falsely laid claim to the founding of the "Tea Party".

Everything you are spewing is all junk I've heard over and over again and it all is put out as misinformation by libertarian controlled media outlets to keep yourself and others in the libertarian camp.

@Hat In Ring
Not sure where you get your info....

Historically, populist movements in the United States have arisen in response to periods of economic hardship, beginning with the proto-populist Greenback and Granger movements in the 1860s and ’70s and continuing with William Jennings Bryan’s Populist Party in the 1890s and Louisiana politician Huey Long’s Share Our Wealth program during the Great Depression of the 1930s. In the wake of the financial crisis that swept the globe in 2008, populist sentiment was once more on the rise. The catalyst for what would become known as the Tea Party movement came on February 19, 2009, when Rick Santelli, a commentator on the business-news network CNBC, referenced the Boston Tea Party (1773) in his response to Pres. Barack Obama’s mortgage relief plan. Speaking from the floor of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, Santelli heatedly stated that the bailout would “subsidize the losers’ mortgages” and proposed a Chicago Tea Party to protest government intervention in the housing market. The five-minute clip became an Internet sensation, and the “Tea Party” rallying cry struck a chord with those who had already seen billions of dollars flow toward sagging financial firms. Unlike previous populist movements, which were characterized by a distrust of business in general and bankers in particular, the Tea Party movement focused its ire at the federal government and extolled the virtues of free market principles.

   There are 2, possibly 3 Briefers that share your level of dislike for Sen. Cruz here and ironically they are rabid Trumpers @Hat In Ring

I enjoyed watching that poster making heads explode, back in the day.

I bet there's more and they just don't want to deal with the libertarians flaming threads. Hell, I don't ever go on libertarian or democrat threads in other forums or on Facebook. I just came onto this thread to set the record right that Ted Cruz is Rino or I never would have signed up on this forum.

I might find some friends here after a while. You know the words, "Stumble upon" and I Stumbled Upon this forum. I thought this old type of forum was dead. There's many Facebook type conservative web sites opening up but they aren't very active. This old style forum seems to be more active than most of the newer Facebook type sites.

We'll see, easy come easy go.

BRiefers view Bookface and related sites with a great deal of suspicion, what with Zuck clamping down on speech and bannings.  That's not how it works here.

I'll make plenty of friends, I just have to find them. The libertarian "Never Trumpers" will never stop trashing Trump to befriend me and I'm not going to kiss up to Cruz just to get friends here.

We have a "No kissing up required" rule.  In fact, if you do kiss up to people they'll show you the appropriate level of gratitude!   

Surf around the Forum a little, read some threads.  You'll get a feel for your natural allies and friends.  They exist, and half the fun is finding the jewels.  It's better than looking for Easter Eggs in Bizarro cartoons.  Speeking of cartoons, we have a daily thread called "Pookies Toons."  They are in a Category on the home page.

[Axeslinger]

We need a LA/HiR category where they can spend all their time stroking each other.   They’ll be in hog heaven...and it’ll be a lovely quarantine from the rest of us.

And @Cyber Liberty ....wow, are you gonna kick yourself.

Ron Paul has never to my knowledge or in all of the propaganda shoved down my throat by Ronulans ever claimed to be any kind of founder of the Tea Party.

I guarantee you they've been lurking on this thread and smiling at all of the BS HiR has been posting about Cruz...because they agree with him.

Good! I'm glad to hear a libertarian admit what factually is true.

I'm not a Libertarian.  You clearly don't know politically speaking what a Libertarian is.

Ron Paul IS a Libertarian...I am clearly NOT.

Pull your head out.
