Senator Ted Cruz has minced no words in his statement tonight about the events in Charlottesville, Virginia. He called out who and what, he (a lawyer by the way) gave no ground to the dumb theory it might have been a panicked accident, and he wants it investigated and prosecuted.
Here is the text, followed by the tweet, which also has an image of the text, plus the urging of investigation....

Cruz is quickly becoming a human chancre sore. I have a hard time believing I ever supported him. I guess I fell for his "tell the rubes what they want to hear" bs,just like everyone else. He didn't get the alleged Republican nomination,so maybe now he's maneuvering for the Dim nomination next time?
He's just another whore,selling himself to the highest bidder.
How come the weasel isn't demanding any of the counter-protesters that attacked the peaceful marchers be arrested?
Oh $hit, @sneakypete why would you call Ted Cruz a ho in this forum, knowing it's gonna pi$$ people off, your balls are bigger than mine.
More faux sanctimony.

Sorry to break it to you @sneakypete . It was one of the "peaceful marchers" crowd that did the killing today.
Both sides there want a Race War.
Sorry to break it to you @sneakypete . It was one of the "peaceful marchers" crowd that did the killing today.So now the actions of someone from a Yankee State (Ohio) will be used to characterize people protesting the erasure of Confederate monuments and Heroes from the South?

Throw in some neonazis (from Illinois?--another Yankee State) for good measure and a handful of kluxxers (their ranks in the photo were not more than two or three deep at the deepest), which reminds me of a protest CNN engineered not so long ago.
Now, tens of thousands (if not far more) people whose ancestors fought and perhaps died or were wounded, risking their lives, fortunes, and sacred honor for the Confederate cause, seeking independence from the Northern dominated Union can STFU or be called Nazis or Racists.
Perfect. The MSM has done its job. The programming is nearly complete.

The posts here on this thread is why the GOP cannot condemn White Supremacists, Klan, and neo-Nazis.

Hate and bile.
I am condemning him because it is half of the truth. A half truth. That is worse than a blatant lie.

It doesn't take a genius to figure out why the lefties aren't being charged. After all it was one of the alt right scum who actually took a life.
@Cripplecreek
No,and it also doesn't take a genius to know who started the violence. WHO shows up at political protests as organized anarchists with masks,goggles,helmets,and a change of clothes as well as weapons in backpacks.
Which group riots,sets fire to police cars,buildings,loots stores,sets fire to stores,and uses gang tactics to pile on and physically attack opposition marchers or protesters?
WHICH group glorifies anarchy as an acceptable political step?
WHICH group was throwing bottles filled with cement at the members of the other group?
WHICH group is dedicated to the overthrow of the US Government and the establishment of a communist government?
WHICH group is calling a man with Jewish children and grandchildren a Nazi sympathizer and implying wants to send non-whites/non-Christians off to concentration camps,and more importantly WHY THE HELL do ANY of you give those people ANY credibility? Do you REALLY miss the alleged version of the Democratic Party being in office THAT much?
It also doesn't,or at least SHOULDN'T take a genius to figure out the loon that ran into those people with his car IS a loon that is NOT representative of the other protesters BECAUSE NO ONE ELSE DID ANYTHING SIMILAR.
Some black bitch talking head was on tv this morning "educating" us all on how Lee and the other confederates were traitors and never deserved to be honored,and NOT ONE SINGLE PERSON SITTING AROUND THAT TABLE HAD EITHER THE KNOWLEDGE OR THE STONES TO CORRECT HER.
THE HISTORICAL TRUTH is that the original 13 states that joined together to form a federal government INSISTED there be a clause in the Articles of Confederation that created the new nation that if at any time in the future the federal government violated the articles of confederation any or all of them had a RIGHT to withdraw from the federal government. The south did this,and Lincoln refused to allow them to do WHAT WAS THEIR LEGAL RIGHT.
It was LINCOLN and the northern bankers that started the Civil War,period!
Sorry to break it to you @sneakypete . It was one of the "peaceful marchers" crowd that did the killing today.
@Mom MD
And I am delighted to disappoint you by giving you the uncomfortable for you TRUTH that it was ONE man out of the whole crowd,and he obviously has mental issues.
Now,compare this to the typical Black Lives Matter crowd and THEIR "peaceful marches",or the anarchist crowd on the left coast and THEIR protest marches that ALWAYS end in violence THEY START. Groups like the one Terrible Terry McAuliffe's son was taking part in a short while ago when someone ripped his face mask off and a photographer took his photo so he could be identified. Dressed in black from head to toe,wearing goggles to protect him from tear gas,wearing a face mask to protect his identity,and carrying a backpack with a change of clothes so he could change his appearance after running from the police,and most likely also carrying weapons.
We don't really know though because THAT shit was shut down IMMEDIATELY and we never heard if he was actually arrested or what the charges are because his daddy is in upper management in the DNC,and likely to be our next president. McAulliffe was an anarchist during college and a hard left activist. Like father,like son.
Both sides there want a Race War.
Exactly. A pox on both their houses. But it was one of the folks @sneakypete was defending that actually did the killing this time.

I give you due credit for writing "The killing THIS time" (emphasis mine). Otherwise I would be sincerely hoping you were severely injured.
"Senator Ted Cruz has minced no words in his statement tonight about the events in Charlottesville, Virginia."
It is horseshit.
Add cruz to the horseshit. Ted Cruz you are a piece of shit.
Antifa was allowed to march.
At this point I'm not so sure the nazi sympathizers wouldn't cheer a muslim killing leftists.
Cruz is quickly becoming a human chancre sore. I have a hard time believing I ever supported him.
@HonestJohn
There is nothing noble about being a weasel.
Don't speak to me again you neonazi piece of shit.
This is what I want to know @bigheadfred ... who allowed Antifa to march and was it allowed without a permit? This is both the gasoline and the spark that caused the violence. One could almost think it was intentional.
You are the one that wants to minimize or give the organizers of the white supremacist groups a pass.
Somehow I don't think this is an investigative angle the MSM will pursue.
Oh, and those opportunists using this to smear everyone who they ordinarily disagree with as nazis can go eat .
This is what I want to know @bigheadfred ... who allowed Antifa to march and was it allowed without a permit?
Why @sneakypeteQuoteBoth sides are trash and I call out violence and thuggery no matter where I see it.
Yeah,you and Jesus. I couldn't help but notice how noble you claim to be.
Damn shame it's more related to stupidity and ignorance than it is nobility.
Bigotry, hatred and intentional acts of violence against innocent people are always wrong.
If Americans cannot come together over that principle in spite of our political differences, then we have no future as a nation.
Reason #187 why I love Ted Cruz.
Antifa didn't cause a kid to ram his car at high speed into a group of pedestrians ISIS-style with murderous intent. And Antifa is not to blame for the hatred in the hearts of those denigrating Robert E. Lee's good name by turning it into an opportunity to broadcast their white-supremacist views to the world.
This is what I want to know @bigheadfred ... who allowed Antifa to march and was it allowed without a permit? This is both the gasoline and the spark that caused the violence. One could almost think it was intentional.
As do we.
Or an opportunist.
@Right_in_Virginia
Being a weasel is an essential character trait of opportunists everywhere.
I'd be shocked if someone could prove that UVA didn't help organize and pay for the anti-protest gathering in addition to inviting them to town.

What part of the Constitution lets a state withdraw?
You have it backwards. The Constitution does not grant rights. It restricts the power of government. So the question should be:
What part of the Constitution prevents a State from withdrawing?
This is a question that Virginia asked before ratifying the Constitution. And the answer to that question was 'nothing prevents a State from withdrawing'.
Cruz is quickly becoming a human chancre sore. I have a hard time believing I ever supported him. I guess I fell for his "tell the rubes what they want to hear" bs,just like everyone else. He didn't get the alleged Republican nomination,so maybe now he's maneuvering for the Dim nomination next time?
He's just another whore,selling himself to the highest bidder.
How come the weasel isn't demanding any of the counter-protesters that attacked the peaceful marchers be arrested?
@dfwgator
WRONG. The left NEEDS a race war in order to create the anarchy they need to have their leaders in government declare Martial Law to suspend the Constitution so they have the US military to help them bust heads and seize power.
The thing they are VERY aware of but most people seem able to ignore is that once the government declares a state of Martial Law exists and suspends the Bill of Rights "for the duration of the emergency",THEY are the ONLY ones with the authority to declare the emergency is over. What do YOU think the odds are of them voluntarily removing themselves from absolute dictatorial power?

:bigsilly:
That's so bad it's not even wrong, to paraphrase Fermi.
@Hoodat
It's a shame more people don't realize that. It is the reason why people from the south refer to it as "Mr Lincoln's War of Northern Aggression",and others say it was the announcement of the beginning of the end of America.
I think you are being a little hard on lying Ted. He is a sleazy opportunist, but he is our sleazy opportunist. I intend to vote for him again in 2018 unless our other sleazy opportunist, Dan Patrick runs. That would be a dilemma.
We have no shortage of sleazy opportunists here in Texas.
For the record, here is the statement of Sen. Ted Cruz:“It’s tragic and heartbreaking to see hatred and racism once again mar our great Nation with bloodshed. Heidi’s and my prayers are with the loved ones of those killed and injured in the ongoing violence in Charlottesville. The First Amendment protects the rights of all Americans to speak their minds peaceably, but violence, brutality, and murder have no place in a civilized society.
The Nazis, the KKK, and white supremacists are repulsive and evil, and all of us have a moral obligation to speak out against the lies, bigotry, anti-Semitism, and hatred that they propagate. Having watched the horrifying video of the car deliberately crashing into a crowd of protesters, I urge the Department of Justice to immediately investigate and prosecute this grotesque act of domestic terrorism.
These bigots want to tear our country apart, but they will fail. America is far better than this. Our Nation was built on fundamental truths, none more central than the proposition ‘that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness.'”
I find no fault in anything Cruz has said here. I share his sentiments on the evils of lies, bigotry, and hate. And I share his love for Jefferson's words in our Declaration of who we are to be as a nation.
Yet there are opportunists here who exude nothing but contempt for this.
For the record, here is the statement of Sen. Ted Cruz:
QuoteWhite supremacists are few in number, small of mind, and are largely inspired by fear and inchoate rage against people they wish to dominate.
The "Antifa" protestors are far greater in number, but similarly inspired.
True.QuoteWe ought not be driven to distraction by the fact that the smaller group is denounced by the mainstream news media, while the larger one is given a pass on their noxious behavior, or even given open sympathy.
Distraction? We need to FOCUS on this and call them on it every time they use it.QuoteWrong is wrong.
In an ideal world,it is. We don't live in an ideal world,though.QuoteAmericans are still governed by a Constitution and ought to be constrained in their behavior by the ideas it represents.
Well,the biggest problem here seems to ME to be that the US Constitution now means whatever any political opportunist with power wants it to mean.
Which,granted,is mostly our own fault for not insisting the words and intent of the Constitution be taught in schools. Most people today don't have a clue about what it represents. Hell,most Americans today think we are a freaking Democracy.QuoteThere is but one way to reclaim the nation we once had: not by warring upon each other, but by turning back to the purposes upon which our nation was founded, respecting our differences, acknowledging our individual responsibilities, and moreover: by honoring each others' God-given rights.
Truly noble thoughts,but things have gone so far now it's not going to happen.
Civil War seems to be a certainty in both the US and in Europe.Maybe/probably Russia also,but unlike Europe and North America,Russia isn't still a truly open society,so there is a lot going on there even know that is only suspected,not known.
Thanks to computers and the internet,the international banking families that have been shadow governments since the dawn of civilization finally have the ability to totally control huge populations all over the world,so they are now working on their plan to have the people of the various nations destroy their governments for them (the bankers) so they can step in and take control where control no longer exists.
These revolutions won't concern them at all because they will just get on their private yachts or private planes,and go off to vacation at one of their estates in Argentina or some similar place,and just wait it out in safety and comfort. When things begin to become stable again,they will emerge with their wealth and use it to take over.
America,for example,will no longer exist. America,Mexico,and Canada will be merged and renamed something like "The North American Economic Zone",and our leaders will be appointed by the board members (the international banking families) of "World Wide Government,Inc".
You will either fight,or you will become a speed bump. There are no other options. Elections are a joke. Trump was an abberation,but with his exception,the only people getting elected these days to lead ANY nation are leftist figureheads that are owned by the bankers.
You will know it is time to fight the day they announce the end of cash money,and say they will go digital and issue everyone a unique digital ID number to control all their accounts and other business and personal dealings. Once you have this number and cash is illegal,they will no longer have to worry about facing a resistance because any time anyone even ATTEMPTS to cause them any grief,all they have to do is have one of their minimum wage trolls hit the "delete" button on your account ID,and you will no longer exist. You won't even be able to buy a cup of coffee at the convenience store where you went to place the toll free number to tell the authories where you are waiting to be picked up because you will no longer exist officially anywhere but as a number that needs to be picked up and sent to a re-education labor camp or executed.
The instant in time where Cruz loses the GOP nomination to Trump.
I would be shocked as well since it is impossible to prove a negative. But then logic never was your strong suit.
I appreciate your comments.

Actually, it is wrong to say it's impossible to prove a negative. That's a common fallacy.
For example, if you can prove a light switch is on, you can prove that it's not off.
Not widely known is that 7 Up originally contained lithium.Well, if it had contained barbiturates, it would have been called "7 Down".

@Right_in_Virginia
Given that this happened in Charlottesville,Va,home of UVA and all the leftist loons that teach in that school and live in that area,it's pretty much a slam dunk. I'd be shocked if someone could prove that UVA didn't help organize and pay for the anti-protest gathering in addition to inviting them to town.
We are talking about a group of people that think Regan was a Nazi being in total control of the city.

Yet there are opportunists here who exude nothing but contempt for this.
The key ingredient in the 'negative' fallacy is the lack of time dependency. The fallacy does not address a specific point in time - i.e. at this moment, the switch is NOT ON. Instead, it offers the premise of proving something that never existed - in this case proving that the switch was turned off. Looking at the switch in the ON position, there is no way to prove that it was ever off. Thus, the fallacy.
The earlier fallacy brought up was this:QuoteHow can you prove that someone did not do something?
Fair enough. I will change what I wrote to "I'd be shocked if UVA didn't help organize and pay for the anti-protest gathering in addition to inviting them to town.
@Hoodat
Cruz was right, quite simply. Someone got murdered, he called it out. People can cry all they want about the right to assemble and protest, but it's a Constitutional right, no matter how much we might dislike some of those taking advantage of that right. "They're to blame someone rammed them with a car and committed murder" just doesn't wash. Not if we're being intellectually honest and thinking with our brains instead of our emotions.
I hope Trump will take a lesson from Cruz, and name it and condemn it.

[snip] What eyewitnesses described as rolling fist fights and battles with thrown projectiles broke out almost immediately after the hundreds of "Alt Right" activists and other white nationalist rallygoers made their way to the statue of Robert E. Lee, whose potential removal was the event's primary ostensible concern. [/snip]
@CatherineofAragon
I may be wrong and missed it because I am doing something else between postings,but I didn't see any posts that justified that murder in ANY respect. IF there was one and I missed it,PLEASE point it out to me and I will apologize.

You mean like condemning Islam for the actions of one "Lone Wolf"?
@dfwgator
No, I'm talking about this particular situation.
At this point I'm not so sure the nazi sympathizers wouldn't cheer a muslim killing leftists.
Nazi's and Muslims were allies during WWII.
Well, if it had contained barbiturates, it would have been called "7 Down".
Heck, from what I read, maybe the counter-protesters were caving in the back window of his car. We do have to find out more. It's very tragic that someone died, otherwise, I doubt if this whole story would have such gravity.
And I have a feeling they will be again
You mean like condemning Islam for the actions of one "Lone Wolf"?
I see people condemning neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists because they are neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists. A worldview that has been proven to be evil. And a worldview that killed off over 400,000 Americans.
The instant in time where Cruz loses the GOP nomination to Trump.
http://youtu.be/qz2636C7Rr4?t=60 (http://youtu.be/qz2636C7Rr4?t=60)
Ditto. I condemn them for their racism. I condemn the driver for using his vehicle to kill someone. If this had not happened, I would still be condemning the Klan and other white supremacists for being racist cowards, and nazis, BLMers, and Antifaks for being socialist racist cowards.
I don't see anyone simply condemning neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists for the actions of 'one lone wolf'.
I see people condemning neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists because they are neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists. A worldview that has been proven to be evil. And a worldview that killed off over 400,000 Americans.
And Communists are responsible for the deaths of over 100 million.
Anything to deflect attention from those neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists.
Not once have you actually condemned them.
I've said many times here that they're idiots who should be ignored. And there were more than a few hammer and sickle banners in that crowd yesterday.
And I condemn the driver, if he's guilty, I hope he hangs.
Wow. You've just said, in essence, that you believe their worldview isn't wrong, they are just going about it wrong.
How did you come up with that?
You said they were idiots. Idiots aren't idiots for their beliefs, but because they always screw up implementation.

Fry his ass for what he did to this car.
"That'll buff right out."
Or an opportunist.Yeah. That. Reminds me of a guy who supported ethanol mandates right after the Gov of Iowa went ballistic over someone else saying he'd eliminate them (and still lost). Funny thing about opportunists, they're everywhere.
So. Condemn the person who did the act...He alone is responsible, no one else.
@dfwgator
Condemn all of the morons. It's not hard.
That's what Trump did. All of the morons on Both sides.

Now even Gingrich is saying Trump needs to speak out more strongly.

@dfwgatorI'm not so sure it is so much just the Left (although they are the conspicuous 'protesters' at the moment) as the cadre from both sides of the aisle, call them what you will: uniparty, 'establishment', 'Country Club', whatever (I prefer traitors).
WRONG. The left NEEDS a race war in order to create the anarchy they need to have their leaders in government declare Martial Law to suspend the Constitution so they have the US military to help them bust heads and seize power.

Of course you do realize the Left said as many nasty things about Reagan, as they say about Trump now. So that hasn't changed all that much.The left would say nasty things about anyone with an 'R' after their name in the White House. It's the only song they know.
Didn't Newt help balance the budget?
What's the point? Sometimes you have to be a team player. Didn't Newt help balance the budget? I'm sure he's done quite a lot.
(http://inapcache.boston.com/universal/site_graphics/blogs/bigpicture/kennedy_08_31/k15_20120853.jpg)
In a statement, the White House sought to clarify that President Donald Trump condemns violence, bigotry and hatred, and it said “of course that includes white supremacists, KKK, neo-Nazis and all extremist groups.”
More recently, the federal budget was balanced in fiscal years 1998, 1999, 2000 and 2001. A Republican-controlled Congress approved the appropriations for each one of those years and Democratic President Bill Clinton signed them. In fiscal years 1994 and 1995, when President Clinton governed with a Democrat-controlled Congress, the federal government ran deficits of $203.2 billion and $163.9 billion respectively.Apparently, the matter is disputed.

Didn't FDR declare some king of an emergency? IIRC that "emergency" has yet to be declared over.
Yeah, the Constitution is nothing more than a voluntary garden party, where you can come and go as you please.

Cruz leads a GOP backlash to ‘Black Lives Matter’ rhetoric (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-politics/wp/2015/09/01/cruz-leads-a-gop-backlash-to-black-lives-matter-rhetoric/)
QuoteI appreciate your comments.
I'll answer this way:
Truth is not dependent upon a society's dominant values, nor upon situational ethics. What was wrong in ancient Greece, or in medieval France, or in colonial America, or in Nazi Germany, is still wrong today, everywhere.
I clearly agree that is the way things SHOULD be and are SUPPOSED to be,but the reality is far different.
The fact that Bubba Bush and Bubba Clinton are running around as free as birds,and enjoying their ill-gotten gains from their treasonous acts of selling our country down the drain is proof of that.
So why aren't they calling this guy a "lone wolf", unlike every time a Muslim commits an act of terror?
@sneakypete
Sure. Read back up the thread to your "yeah, but who started it" post.
QuoteHeck, from what I read, maybe the counter-protesters were caving in the back window of his car.
We can rule that one out. There is a photo of his car from the rear as he was driving into the crowd that has been posted,and his rear window is clearly unharmed.
And even if they did bust out his rear window,that is no justification to drive into a crowd and murder at random.QuoteWe do have to find out more. It's very tragic that someone died,
I agree.Quoteotherwise, I doubt if this whole story would have such gravity.
Naw,the left has been drooling with anticipation about this from the moment it was announced. They were poised to make something of it before it even began. That psycho just gave them what they wanted.
QuoteI see people condemning neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists because they are neo-Nazis, Klan, and White Supremacists. A worldview that has been proven to be evil. And a worldview that killed off over 400,000 Americans.
And Communists are responsible for the deaths of over 100 million.
Wow. You've just said, in essence, that you believe their worldview isn't bad, they are just going about it wrong.
@dfwgator
Now even Gingrich is saying Trump needs to speak out more strongly.
Seeing those too dumb ass speakers makes me long for the old days.

Of course you do realize the Left said as many nasty things about Reagan, as they say about Trump now. So that hasn't changed all that much.
QuoteI'm not so sure it is so much just the Left
The left leadership aren't even leftists. Does ANYONE REALLY think people like the Clintons and McAulliffe believe in equality and sharing anything with anyone? Once they gain absolute power they would make Beria and Stalin look like debutantes by comparison.
You can bet your bippy that the very instant the political left in this country takes power that their supporters who are actual leftists will be amongst the first people loaded on the trains.
Useful tools,useful tools.
@CatherineofAragon
No. You obviously found it or think you found it,so either post a link to it or STFU about it. I'm not going to waste my time chasing rumors or fairy tales.
@Hoodat
Yup,no doubt about it,"Temporary Ted" can be outraged with there are points to be scored from it.
@sneakypete
Bite me. If you forgot what you posted that quickly, your memory problems aren't mine.
I'm afraid those days are long gone.
@Suppressed
Close,but no cigar. You can prove a light bulb is good if it is emitting light,but the switch could be faulty allowing it to glow with the switch off,or the bulb itself could be burned out and not glowing even though it is getting electricity.
Ah, the pitfalls of making it up as he goes.
You just stated another fallacy. Besides, you're not addressing the statement I made. I didn't mention the bulb, I mentioned the switch alone.
@Hoodat
Sad!
