No we believe hes a liar because he is one. He voted to Renew the Patriot Act. That negates any claim hes a Constitutional Conservative. He has flipped so much its not funny, pushed Amnesty and pushed the globalist agenda.

much more and its not from Trump
Senator Cruz co-sponsored the USA Freedom Act to reform the Patriotic Act, addressing the important but very knotty idea of “probable cause”—a Constitutional concept that we definitely need to address carefully in wartime. The NRA backed Cruz’s bill as a needed improvement on the Patriot Act. Rand Paul, however, essentially wanted the Patriot Act killed, not fixed—so he opposed the USA Freedom Act, even with its reforms.
Some extreme libertarians regarded Senator Paul’s opposition to the USA Freedom Act as heroic, but I say that his opposition to Cruz’s USA Freedom Act was naïve. (A lot of libertarian views are naïve and destructive, I’m afraid.) The extreme libertarians also tried to characterize Cruz as an anti-Constitutional hypocrite for sponsoring the USA Freedom Act, but I say that Cruz was launching a necessary and legislatively shrewd measure to limit Federal powers within the Act. If he had not done that, the Patriot Act would likely have been renewed with no reforms—as McConnell was evidently hoping!
It will be forever argued, I suppose, that the USA Freedom Act did not do enough to limit Federal surveillance power. I get that. However, there will always be sincere and Constitutionally sincere conservatives who will counter-argue that the Patriot Act must not be completely shredded while we are at war. The Act was written as an anti-terrorist Act with sunsetting provisions built into it; more importantly, the Patriot Act has helped us to thwart a number of potentially devastating attacks on American soil.
You must not be so naïve, under the circumstances that I have explained above, as to say flatfootedly that Cruz is not really a Constitutional conservative. You really don’t know whereof you speak. And if that charge offends you, I will now double down on it. I submit that you are badly confused only because in your zeal to promote Lovely Mr. Trump and to fight as his devoted foot soldier against Trump’s unspeakably nasty opponent, you have learned (with insidious coaching) to DESPISE an unusually GOOD man like Cruz—and, at the same time, decided for your own too-simplistic libertarian reasons to make the Patriot Act a kind of centerpiece of your less than-thoughtful outrage against Cruz.
If, on the other hand, the Patriot Act is SUPREMELY important to you in this election year, thereby justifying (?) your judgmental outrage even to the point of unfairly calling Cruz a liar, a Constitutional phony—then you are the hypocrite.
Why do I say that, Mechanicos? It is because your idol Donald Trump is strongly PRO-Patriot Act. He is a BIG GOVERNMENT GUY—and also a heavy-handed egotist. He is precisely the sort of guy you should be afraid to put into the White House. In other words, I say that you don’t have good discernment faculties. You have cheered on a lying monster while he and his surrogates have been crucifying a good man through false accusation.
Let me illustrate further:
You have declared that Cruz is an extreme flip flopper. This is almost hilarious, coming from the Trump camp. Why haven’t you noticed this? Trump is not so much a Republican as a populist (like his NYC buddy Bloomberg) who will say anything to get elected—which is why he has had to walk back almost every position he has publicly taken. Cruz is a rock compared to a shifting-sands guy like Trump.
You have tried to tar and feather Cruz as an insider hypocrite because “Cruz’s Texas Law Firm” donated to Democrats. But it was not Cruz’s law firm. Cruz worked there, but he was certainly not the owner or Managing Partner. (By the same token, the claim that Cruz was Boehner’s lawyer is stupid. Boehner used the Texas-based law firm where Cruz was a low-level rookie who never had any interaction with Boehner.)
You have tried to smear Cruz for accepting a big donation from a gay Republican. But so what if Cruz took the donation? The Log Cabin Republicans are generally a lot more conservative than Trump is. And many of them will support a guy like Cruz even though they know that Cruz is resolutely opposed to gay marriage and determined to stop the persecution of Christians (and others) who will not endorse gay marriage.
Cutting to the chase, let me give you some links that should shock the living hell out of generally honest but confused Trumpster. (I will charitably assume that a few of you guys are just low-information voters—rather than antichristian, self-deceived bigots.) Following is just a small sampling of links from one of the best websites on the planet:

If and when it dawns on you that Trump is the lying fraud in the primary process—not Cruz—you will finally understand why there are so many #NeverTrump guys and gals. (Have you never honestly wondered why there are so many eloquently angry denunciations of Trump here on our Forum and on conservative websites?)
