 Ted Cruz Lies, Mom Rolls Her Eyes

 When I helped Ted get elected to Senate, I was convinced he was a principled, Christian conservative unlike any we had seen for ages.  Upon deep research initially to defend him, I found hard evidence that he should not be in office. I am not the only one.  At this link you can read the awakening of another Cruz supporter.  Still another member of Cruz's OWN LEAERSHIP TEAM finally had enough to write this blog post.  And these are outright brazen lies that he knows are not the other candidate's position.  Many examples below but in the instance on the video here, Cruz is talking to other Evangelical Christians, saying that Donal Trump wants to continue ObamaCare, despite Trump inviting Cruz to Mar A Lago the week after the ObamaCare debate to congratulate, praise and agree with him.  This kind of lying borders on that of a sociopath.

Citizenship

Current Hawaiian US Senator Mazie Hirono was born to a US citizen mother and a foreign father in a foreign land.  Her mother brought her to the US when she was seven years old. She defines herself as an immigrant is a "naturalized citizen"  according to her biography. 

SCOTUS, Congress and Founder Evidence of "Natural Born Citizen" definitions

Ted Cruz Doesn't Answer 17 yr old voter why he didn't know he was a Canadian until 2014

Why "Natural Born Citizen" was so important to Founders and is still today

Ted Cruz's website boldly lies "NO CONSTITUTIONAL SCHOLAR BELIEVES CRUZ TO BE INELIGIBLE FOR PRESIDENT.

Another lie. Scholar papers and Notable Officials that Cruz Rubio are not Natural Born Citizens

• Catholic Law University Review PDF (Also explains why other scholars get it wrong)
  (Layman Washington Post article by same Delaware Law School professor/historian)
• University of Chicago Professor Posner
• Chicago Kent Law Review (from a Leftist, Globalist, New World Order perspective)
• Governor of Michigan
• Michigan Law Review

• 1795 Congressional Notes (explaining repeal of 1790 "natural born" Act) PDF
• Libertarian REASON magazine
• Independence Institute
• Case Western Law Professor (changed mind to now doubt earlier position Cruz eligible)  

Harvard Law Professor, Former Chairman of the Antitrust Advisory Committee to Obama's campaign, Einer Elhauge, filed an amicus brief at the New York Supreme Court advising the court that Canadian-born Ted Cruz is not eligible to be president under the Article II natural born Citizen requirement.  Elhauge also says it's not a political question.

Exhaustive Legal Argument explaining error on Illinois Board of Elections decision

Ted Cruz is using Hillary' Clinton's lobbyist, and OPEN BORDERS ATTORNEY to fight his eligibility cases.  

SCOTUS finding from 1971 (Rogers v Bellei) with EXACT circumstances as Cruz found that he would not even be a citizen.

The Supreme Court Ruling in Wong vs Ark says this:

"Citizenship by naturalization can only be acquired *180 by naturalization under the authority and in the forms of law. But citizenship by birth is established by the mere fact of birth under the circumstances defined in the constitution. Every person born in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, becomes at once a citizen of the United States, and needs no naturalization. A person born out of the jurisdiction of the United States can only become a citizen by being naturalized, 

 Being "naturalized" is different from being a native citizen.

And the ultimate hypocrisy for someone who is a beneficiary of "birth right" citizenship.  In 2011 he claims he is for it and it won't help to change it.  Now he claims he was ALWAYS for it....INCLUDING in 2011!!

There is the reality that Republicans could go through the entire primary process, only to have their nominee thrown out, if not substantially delayed (unable to start a campaign for the general election in time).  Rep. Alan Grayson (FL) will also file lawsuit if @TedCruz nominated by GOP.

ANOTHER! TED CRUZ SAYS HE IS NOT A CITIZEN (BIRTHRIGHT CITIZENSHIP)

 CNN: Princeton Debate Member says Cruz claimed he was a dual citizen.

In 2014, Ted Cruz claimed that did not know he still had Canadian citizenship, and formally revoked it.

At right is a clip from a New Hampshire Cruz rally where a 17 year old, first time voter asked how it was possible that Cruz did not know this all along, especially since he was a constitutional expert.  Cruz refused to answer the question, instead claiming that contrary to multiple Supreme Court cases and writings of the founders, "it has always been that way."

Even when CNN asks Ted to cite the specific legal argument - Cruz simply says "the Constitution is very clear"  - something even legal scholars supporting Cruz's position overwhelmingly deny.

However, Michael Lubetsky, a Canadian who was on the Princeton debate team with Cruz, has come forward saying that not only did Cruz know, he talked about it often.

http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/07/politics/ted-cruz-citizenship-childhood/index.html

This is in STARK contrast to a statement he put out in 2014.

Given the raft of stories today about my birth certificate, it must be a slow news day. The facts of my birth are straightforward: I was born in 1970 in Calgary, Canada. Because my mother was a U.S. citizen, born in Delaware, I was a U.S. citizen by birth. When I was a kid, my Mom told me that I could choose to claim Canadian citizenship if I wanted. I got my U.S. passport in high school.

Because I was a U.S. citizen at birth, because I left Calgary when I was 4 and have lived my entire life since then in the U.S., and because I have never taken affirmative steps to claim Canadian citizenship, I assumed that was the end of the matter. Now the Dallas Morning News says that I may technically have dual citizenship. Assuming that is true, then sure, I will renounce any Canadian citizenship. Nothing against Canada, but I’m an American by birth and as a U.S. Senator, I believe I should be only an American.

*****************************************

Ted Cruz has sealed his immigration documentation.  If it is so "straightforward" as Cruz says, Why?


Did Ted Cruz enter the United States Illegally? (we don't know since he won't show his CRBA).

TED'S DOCUMENTS and MISSING documents: Is he illegally serving in the Senate?

Ted Cruz's mother's birth certificate  

RNC Committeewoman also believes Ted Cruz is not eligible.

___________________________________________

State chairwoman of the Illinois National Republican Assembly claims Cruz implied that he knew he was NOT a natural born citizen when he was running for Senate.

“I said to him — on my bucket list, one day I hope to work for the first Latino president of the United States in Washington, D.C. — so I looked right at him and I said, ‘I believe someday you might be that guy.’ He looked back at me and he chuckled, ‘I wasn’t born in America … I was born in Canada.’ We laughed about it.”

But asked about his eligibility after his CPAC speech in a Q&A with Fox host Sean Hannity, Cruz said, “I was born in Calgary, my mother was an American citizen by birth, under federal law that made me an American citizen by birth. The Constitution requires that you be a natural-born citizen.”

CRUZ ALSO SAID in an interview with the GOP TEXAS STATE COMMITTEE MEMBER that Barack Obama was NOT a Natural Born Citizen and that the Constitutional definition of NBC was “Two citizen parents and born on the soil.”

Heidi Cruz's Position and Work on Council of Foreign Relations and a North American EU
(Video)

Heidi Cruz was one of 18 committee members who worked for 5 years to override US law to create a North American (EU-like) Union.  It created two political organizations (new UN's for trade) that America would fund and the US would have to submit it's rights to an international court (explained here).  Her endorsement in the last part of the Task Force’s report, “Additional and Dissenting Views,” Heidi S. Cruz wrote (pp. 33-34) is as follows:

“I support the Task Force report and its recommendations aimed at building a safer and more prosperous North America. Economic prosperity and a world safe from terrorism and other security threats are no doubt inextricably linked. While governments play an invaluable role in both regards, we must emphasize the imperative that economic investment be led and perpetuated by the private sector. There is no force proven like the market for aligning incentives, sourcing capital, and producing results like financial markets and profit-making businesses. This is simply necessary to sustain a higher living standard for the poorest among us—truly the measure of our success. As such, investment funds and financing mechanisms should be deemed attractive instruments by those committing the capital and should only be developed in conjunction with market participants.”

Campaign Lies, Deceptions and Privacy Invasion

Ex-Cruz campaign staffer: Heidi knows about Ted affairs, is "ok with it." Amanda Carpenter hatched Ben Carson vote theft.  Full article here.

• Cruz hatched Ben Carson vote theft from internal phone poll showing Trump in 1st, Cruz second and Carson a very close third place.
• Amanda Carpenter initiated the idea of converting Carson caucus goers to Cruz
• Cruz extramarital affairs well known
• Heidi Cruz sent memo to staff declaring that "she knew about it." "it was ok" and staff should not worry about it.

Ted Cruz had the worst showing in 109 years of any POTUS candidate in their home state. Ted spent $1M and had 50,000 volunteers.  Texas had a 109% better turnout than 2008.  However, in Maine where he spent no advertising, 4 hours away from Massachusetts where he hadn't won a single county 4 days earlier, he ended up with 46% of the vote and a GOP turnout of 342%.  It is statistically impossible and is vote fraud by the Cruz campaign.

In Utah, former GOP leaders witnessed OVERT vote fraud and ballot stuffing by Cruz operatives.

Ted Cruz claims he was integral in the Bush/Gore vote recount "process" in Florida.  The leaders remember a single meeting with Cruz and nothing more.  “I have no recollection of working with him or ever seeing him involved in the process,” said Barry Richard, who was the Bush campaign’s lead counsel in Florida.

Ted Cruz is bashing John Roberts after years of praising him
http://www.businessinsider.com...

National Right To Life says Cruz ads "misleading" on Rubio's record.

Few Cruz supporters - or Texans - know that Ted began his Presidential campaign THREE MONTHS into taking his Senate seat a a first time congressmen. (Seven months after being elected he said his focus "is not on poltiics" when asked if he was running.)  He disingenuously denied he had already begun running even while spending an inordinate amount of time and money in primary states.

Ted Cruz has claimed numerous times - in debates, attack ads and interviews - that Donald Trump is for ObamaCare.  Here are a few.  However, not only did Donald Trump invite Ted Cruz to speak at his Mar A Lago resort (see Trump's introduction of Ted in this video), he gave $5,000 to Cruz's PAC because of that stance.

Ted Cruz has taken a book from Adolph Hitler and Barak Obama in taking a big lie and proclaiming it so loudly, that no one would suspect someone like him would possibly make it.  For example, He says in a fund raising letter that he "will never get" nor does he want "money from D.C. lobbyists or the special interest billionaires."  His own filings tell a completely different story. (h/t The Gateway Pundit)

http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/02/11/who-is-the-real-ted-cruz/

Cruz campaign appears to violated HIS OWN STATE'S LAWS in sending out a fake "check" to donor prospects.  (Don't forget - he was Solicitor General of Texas).

THIS WON'T END BECAUSE OF WHO CRUZ HIRED

Here is a real sign of character.  When he was running for Senate, the Dewhurst campaign sent out a mailer smearing and lying that Cruz represented a Chinese company stealing American blueprints.  He even claimed he was incensed since it went to his father.  What did Cruz do?  He hired the man who created the mailer TO BE HIS presidential campaign architect.  A man who had no national political success to speak of at that time, but a reputation to be "the worst" of dirty politics, including driving some opponents to suicide.

Trey Gowdy similarly has had enough.  A facebook post from a fake Trey Gowdy account recently suggested that the Congressman has "had a change of heart" and switched his endorsement from Rubio to Cruz.  Gowdy has absolutely no doubt the Cruz campaign is behind it:

“In the last week, we have seen a systematic effort by Senator Cruz and his allies to spread false information and outright lies in the hopes of winning votes by appealing to our lowest common denominator."

THE GOLDMAN SACHS AND CITIBANK LOAN LIES

Ron Paul came out yesterday created a furor by saying of Cruz, "he’s owned by Goldman Sachs."  The CrowdPAC chart to the right shows that not only is he the largest recipient of Wall Street donations, he has MORE than Hillary. Suddenly those undisclosed loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank take on a new light.  Two big reasons why this is damning:

1. The law is clear.  So either Cruz can't manage accurate reporting (something he has derided political opponents and the White House about), or he was lying.
2. He was already caught lying about this.  Cruz had an eloquent story he originally told:

 “Sweetheart, I’d like us to liquidate our entire net worth, liquid net worth, and put it into the campaign,” he says he told his wife, Heidi, who readily agreed.

The truth is "liquidate" to Ted was to get a sweetheart loan from his wife's employer and the CAMPAIGN paid it back.   The Cruz's were never out a penny.  And it was a Hillary-like "we were broke" moment.

Getting confirmation from the FEC of these violations, a former Cruz supporter jumped to Trump after hearing Ted blatantly lie about the facts..  A Must Read with FEC documentation.

Ted Cruz said: "I will never get—nor do I want—money from the D.C. lobbyists or the special interest billionaires," but during his 2012 run for the Senate, Cruz accepted $125,450 in donations from 92 registered lobbyists (and $21,500 from their family members). It's worse now.  (See above)

“One thing is now clear — while Senator Cruz may preach against the ‘Washington Cartel,’ he will still adopt, or at least not condemn, Cartel tactics for his own political gain,” Carson wrote.

Pattern of Lies: Cruz campaign spreads false story that Rubio trashes the Bible. Cruz fires Communication Director.  (What kind of campaign do you have when your head of communications even considers posting and spreading a false story to begin with!?)

Although Cruz fired the Communication Director, he continues to stump with Glenn Beck WHO IS DOING THE EXACT THING FOR WHICH THE DIRECTOR WAS FIRED.

Glenn Beck who said it wasn't Christian to vote for Donald, says it's ok to "stab" Donald Trump.  No rebuke from Ted Cruz.

Ted Cruz lied in the 3-4-16 FOX debate saying Trump gave to Hillary 4 times.  CNN and WaPo both say Trump gave NOTHING to Hillary Clinton.

Ted Cruz Can Strengthen Immigration Now

Why do Cruz supporters who claim Ted is every bit as strong on illegal immigration issues as Trump, not actually ASK for documentation from their candidate to prove he is even a US citizen let alone a natural born one?

They will (rightly) demand current US residents who can not prove their right to be here to either be deported or at least penalized as Cruz originally suggested in his green card plan.  NOT ONE CRUZ SUPPORTER WOULD ACCEPT the "word" of Iraqi, Syrian or Mexican immigrant without proof.  Many have tweeted, posted and blogged about the 650,000 California Driver's Licenses that went to illegals in 2015.  But, when given a chance to themselves, do their own due diligence on someone of question, there is bupkis or deflection.  Isn't this hypocritical?

Forget for a moment that a 1971 Supreme Court decision (with a subject with EXACTLY the same situation as Ted Cruz) found that under the 14th Amendment, Ted Cruz IS NOT EVEN A US CITIZEN.

There is however a filing called a Consular Record of Birth Abroad (CRBA) that is required for foreign born children of US parents to file to retain the right to their United States citizenship.  It has been in existence since 1919 (Ancestry.com uses it to build family trees) and you can even read about it at the United States Consulate in Toronto, Canada.

Where is Ted's CRBA?   Why aren't Cruz supporters demanding it like they did Obama's records?

Ted Cruz is clear (now) on where he stands regarding his eligibility.  In Laconia, New Hampshire at a campaign rally, a 17 year old, first time voter wanted to know why it took 43 years for Cruz to know he was still a Canadian citizen, much less formally file to renounce it.  The kid wasn't especially respectful (the full exchange here) and of course, Ted never actually answered it.  He claims the facts are clear.  His mother was born in Deleware, he was born in Calgary, Canada, and then he rushes very quickly to say that his parents "lived there."  (He wisely doesn't mention his father's citizenship or the fact his father chose Canadian asylum over US.)


As you see in the NH stump video above, it is his position that:

"Under US law, the child of a citizen born abroad, is a natural born citizen."

State Department Mandate for US Children born abroad

Notice he didn't say "the Constitution."  We don't know which law to which he is referring.  His surrogates were broadly pushing the Immigration of Act of 1790 which, unfortunately for he and Mark Levin, was actually repealed in 1795.  Moreover we have the House Subcommittee notes (PDF) explaining the reason for the repeal (rather than merely amend) precisely because they didn't want anyone to assume a foreign born child of US parents would automatically become a "natural born citizen."

So whether or not the "law" that he believes miraculously entitles him to "natural born" status exists or not, there is a law for US parents of foreign born children like Ted.  It requires the CRBA to be filed prior to the child's 18th birthday along with other stipulations.

If they do NOT file this, they are not even to be considered US citizens.

Michael Lubetsky, a Canadian who was on the Princeton debate team with Cruz, has come forward saying that not only did Cruz know, he talked about it often. (CNN)

This is in direct contradiction to a statement his Senate office released in 2014 saying:

Given the raft of stories today about my birth certificate, it must be a slow news day. The facts of my birth are straightforward: I was born in 1970 in Calgary, Canada. Because my mother was a U.S. citizen, born in Delaware, I was a U.S. citizen by birth. When I was a kid, my Mom told me that I could choose to claim Canadian citizenship if I wanted. I got my U.S. passport in high school.

Because I was a U.S. citizen at birth, because I left Calgary when I was 4 and have lived my entire life since then in the U.S., and because I have never taken affirmative steps to claim Canadian citizenship, I assumed that was the end of the matter. Now the Dallas Morning News says that I may technically have dual citizenship. Assuming that is true, then sure, I will renounce any Canadian citizenship. Nothing against Canada, but I’m an American by birth and as a U.S. Senator, I believe I should be only an American.

If Cruz is allowed to hold a Senate office, much less run for President, as a dual citizen without A) renouncing allegiance to his non-US allegiance at least 14 years before running for office and B) not proving that he has proper immigration documentation then ANY foreign national can run for any office and begin to exert ANY agenda - overt or covert - without any understanding, allegiance or commitment to US values.

And this is before dealing with whether he is "natural born" or not.

The founders had very good reasons to be concerned about foreign infiltration and influence into the most powerful position of our government.   So much so, that George Washington had the eligibility rules for President and Vice President in the Constitution changed from a mere "citizen born" on US soil, to a "natural born citizen" in the final draft.  Contrary to the spin that Obama acolytes used to make (and now Cruz's), there is an enormous mound of evidence clearly defining "natural born citizen" from private letters from John Jay (who would become the first Supreme Court Chief Justice), to the Federalist papers to Supreme Court rulings.  Even Winston Churchill - who like Cruz had a US born mother, a foreign father and was born on foreign soil - knew (and said) that the Constitution would need to be amended for him to be eligible to run for President of the United States.

Harvard Law Professor, Former Chairman of the Antitrust Advisory Committee to Obama's campaign, Einer Elhauge, filed an amicus brief at the New York Supreme Court advising the court that Canadian-born Ted Cruz is not eligible to be president under the Article II natural born Citizen requirement.  Elhauge also says it's not a political question.

Current Hawaiian US Senator Mazie Hirono was born to a US citizen mother and a foreign father in a foreign land.  Her mother brought her to the US when she was seven years old. She defines herself as an immigrant is a "naturalized citizen"  according to her biography. 

When running for Senate, Ted Cruz ADMITTED to a GOP Assemblywoman and Latino paper that he was not eligible to be President.  Things suddenly changed when he saw the grassroots support available to him when he ran for Senate.


Which leaves a few questions for Senator Cruz.

• Which law gives you "natural born citizen" status as a foreign born child of one US parent?

• Since all other foreign born children of US parents had to file a Consular Record of Birth Abroad before they were
  18 years old, did your mother file one?  Where is your copy (or will you ask for the State Department to release it)?

• Can you explain why the Founders went to extreme measures to only exempt "citizens born in the US" at the signing of the Constitution but used "natural born citizens" in the final draft which Founder/Historian David Ramsey clearly stated excluded foreign born children? 

• Can you explain why in 1875 the Supreme Court said that the term "natural born citizen," though not defined in the Constitution was "never doubted" to be a child born on US soil to TWO (2) US citizen parents?

Cruz followers; if you love the Constitution as much as you say you do, isn't it your obligation for every candidate (including Marco Rubio) to provide PROOF that they are at least a Citizen of the United States for a Driver's License, much less to serve as the chief of all Federal law enforcement over our country?

Here's a bonus.  Just think how idiotic you can make those of us questioning this look if the documents are provided by your candidate and the answers to the questions above are clearly answered.

If not, you at least can take pride in doing your civic duty in defending the Constitution and our beloved United States of America against ALL forces - foreign and domestic - that might try to weaken us.

Ted Cruz's Ties to the CIA, Wall Street and Banks is Scary

It just gets more and more interesting.  If you hate liberty and believe the NSA has a right to spy on you, you'll love Ted Cruz.

In addition to Heidi and Ted's many big bank, big government, CIA ties, we now find that a shadowy SuperPAC, with millions from unidentified donors is run by the former attorney for Mitch McConnell and attack ALL Cruz competitors.  Another operative attached is Keats Norfleet, who operated the career of Super RINO Dwayne Bohac in Texas.

One of the big donors behind this? German born Peter Thiel (founder of Paypal) with DEEP CIA/FBI/DARPA ties.  Thiel was one of the first investors of Facebook and as biggest shareholder in Palantir, is deeply enmeshed with government at all levels including the Obama White House.  Palantir recruits the likes of former counsel to Joe Biden.  Anonymous uncovered efforts by Thiel's company to "spread disinformation" about journalist Greg Greenwald's work.  Clearly they are more than software company.

We already learned that former DHS head Michael Chertoff hired a former Goldman Sachs executive to combine all the information flows from ALL intelligence communities (NSA/FBI/CIA/DHS/NSA), and that former Goldman Sachs exec is now Chertoff's partner, and CHIEF of Ted Cruz's campaign.

Add to that James Woolsey, Cruz's Foreign Policy Adviser.  From Exposing Modern Mugwumps:

Woolsey was a national security specialist and former Director of the CIA under the Clinton administration. He heads up many Neoconservative groups including being the Chairman of the Foundation for Defence of Democracies, and Founding Member of the Washington Institute for Near East Policy.

More than just academic advocacy of the military-industrial complex and the global deployment of American troops to force democracy on the world, Woolsey has no problem putting the noose around those who act against the growth of the government.

In a December 2013 interview with Fox News, Woolsey made the following shocking statement when asked about NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden: “I think giving him amnesty is idiotic,” Woolsey said. “He should be prosecuted for treason. If convicted by a jury of his peers, he should be hanged by his neck until he is dead.” [Link]

And much much more. 

Here is an excerpt from "The Concordance of Cruz Corruption Deceptions and Lies"

NSA STYLE DATA MINING and SPYWARE

Cruz is taking Facebook data - mostly without permission - from millions for his campaign

Cruz planting SPYWARE on Cruz user phones to get names, addresses of friends and contacts

Cruz software classifies users as "neurotic"- even those taken without permission -  if they have concerns about country, illegal immigration or gun control

"Cruz had a London-based firm on call to tell him which Iowans were introverted and which were neurotic." (Source)

Ron Paul came out yesterday created a furor by saying of Cruz, "he’s owned by Goldman Sachs."  The CrowdPAC chart to the right shows that not only is he the largest recipient of Wall Street donations, he has MORE than Hillary.

Suddenly those undisclosed loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank take on a new light.  Two big reasons why this is damning:

1. The law is clear.  So either Cruz can't manage accurate reporting (something he has derided political opponents and the White House about), or he was lying.
2. He was already caught lying about this.  Cruz had an eloquent story he originally told:

 “Sweetheart, I’d like us to liquidate our entire net worth, liquid net worth, and put it into the campaign,” he says he told his wife, Heidi, who readily agreed.

The truth is "liquidate" to Ted was to get a sweetheart loan from his wife's employer and the CAMPAIGN paid it back.   The Cruz's were never out a penny.  And it was a Hillary-like "we were broke" moment.

With Ted backing Obama on eliminating US sovereignty with his vote on TPP, and Heidi trying to hide her ties to former World Bank President, the Agenda 21 EU-like North American Union effort, and her role as director for the Western Hemisphere on the National Security Council under Condoleezza Rice, it's not a reach to see a systematic suppression of Heidi and Ted's Big Government and Wall Street backgrounds that existed for Ted up until 10 years ago and hasn't stopped with Heidi. 

(As to Cruz's deflection attempt to claim this is an attack on his wife, it is CRUZ who says he doesn't make a major decision without her and she is his "closest adviser.",  Heidi gloats she is "one half of a great team."  Moreover, former Goldman turned DHS/CIA turned Chertoff Group turned Cruz Campaign Chief Chad Sweet (who recruited Heidi at Goldman) says, "She works the phones the way she worked them when she was at Goldman."  You can't have it both ways.)

Regardless, Cruz is at least a lying opportunist, and more likely, something much, much worse.

Expect government infringement on ALL of your communications not only to continue under a Cruz administration - expect them to expand.

Why Are Cruz Christians Allowing Themselves to be Deceived?

**********
UPDATE: Christian Evangelical icon Mike Huckabee, one of the most gentle, soft spoken candidates ever, is openly calling Ted Cruz  "“Nasty…Stealing…Lowlife…Sleazy…”  Reminds you also of George W. Bush, who says NOTHING bad even about Obama or other competitors to his brother, but has open disdain for Ted.   This should not be taken likely.
**********

I detest the Cruz, Rubio, Trump and Jeb supporters who can't be honest about their own candidate's failings.  Almost all of these people seem to be Christian, but they some how think it's fine to act like liberals and not acknowledge even the BASIC flaws of their candidate, defending lies and worse.  Why is that?

Worse, they don't do even basic research to find out who they are really defending.  If their candidate says it they ignorantly just assume it must be true then find themselves terribly embarrassed (and discredited) over defending actions that are not only unethical but calculated.  And as I explain below, this will keep happening to Ted Cruz.  It is intentional.

Now that the Caucus fraud has been irrefutably proven that the Cruz campaign intentionally misrepresented Carson's situation to steal votes even after Carson sent a corrected release (here and here) - not one of the Judeo/Christian Cruz supporters has had the integrity to admit they were wrong.  In their eyes it's just "politics" and hypocritically won't admit they would be hammering this 24/7 if it happened to their candidate.  In just one precinct where Cruz's operatives were pushing the lie, Ben Carson's WIFE walked in as Cruz operatives were spreading the lies, and Carson ended up in SECOND place- much more in line with the pre-caucus polling.  These people are like Obots who still claim Barry has saved the economy and is a Christian.  Stick your head in the sand.  Who cares if the Soros-affiliated PR head of the Cruz campaign who was caught red handed trying to blame Trump as well.  No wonder our children and nation have no moral compass.

What gets me, is a lot of these people endorsed the RINO-Rubio loving Santorum in the last election, (who misled a huge number of Christians because they didn't do even BASIC research into fact checking his representations) - they are now doing the same with Cruz.  His campaign is run by a former  Goldman Sachs executive who profited from the push of TSA scanning machines, his wife STILL is employed by Goldman Sachs on leave, and his campaign originally tried to HIDE her ties to the Council of Foreign Relations and her ex-World Bank President boss on Wikipedia, much less his loans from them.   Nothing to see here, move along....unless it's Chelsea.  

A normally intelligent TEA Party activist here in Texas wrote a puff piece on Ted Cruz "What We Know About Ted Cruz in Texas" and refused to address that he actively pushed and defended Bush's NO CHILD LEFT BEHIND.  She did the same with Santorum.  Apparently, she doesn't have an ability to admit ANY wrongdoing - just like our current Muslim President.  These people seem oblivious that Heidi Cruz helped write and promote the EU-like Agenda 21 North American Union plan.  Yet nary a peep from my supposed conservative friends about Ted's vote with Barak Barry to hand over American sovereignty with his support of TPP. 

You'd think that after Cruz told gay donors at a NY apartment (where a gay bartender died of drug overdose only six months earlier).that he would have "no problem" if one of his daughter was gay at the SAME TIME he was in churches condemning the gay lifestyle, they'd start to look a bit more closely at him.

Of course not.  And the fact that Ted changed his big government rhetoric just 10 years ago as he began to orchestrate his calculated political quest?  No biggie.  Who cares if Ted Cruz never had any intention of actually serving the people of Texas as Senator.  Only three (3) months after taking his Senate seat, he began running for President as National Review reporter Robert Costa explains in this radio interview. Who cares if he has the second worst attendance record in the Senate and can't be bothered to show up even 50% of the time for his position on the Armed Services Committee.  Rubio is even worse.  (That's right, Hillary had a better attendance record than Marco Rubio.)

Besides Cruz/Rubio who were the most recent first term Senators who had this bad of a voting record who began running for POTUS?  Barack Hussein Obama.  And Hillary Clinton.

There is no perfect politician.  Cruz still has done some great conservative things.  But the inability for CHRISTIANS to accept meditated deception and lying is disgusting.  Can't you still support "your guy" but at least be honest about what they do or did?

All candidates try to put a spin on their accomplishments. But Cruz's abilities are premeditated and Clintonian.  As Sarah Palin expressed, one of her reasons for not endorsing the man she put into the Senate, was that he lied on his immigration record.  He was ok.  But he continually lies about what his real positions were and revises history to score cheap political points, rather than simply be truthful about what he said and did at the time.  Politico documents just THREE of these instances here in their article entitled, "Ted Cruz may be the most gifted liar to run for President."  Hate Trump and Rubio, but they at least admit they held contrary opinions on many things before they ran for President and explain why.

It's not just immigration.  It's almost everything else which is why even his conservative Senate fellows dislike him.  Chuck Grassley called Cruz's Criminal Justice Reform where he wanted to do away with minimum mandatory sentences as "lenient," and now pretends it never happened.  And worse, Ted ended up supporting NOTHING of value in the end.  As a Texan, can I get my money back?

Ron Paul came out yesterday created a furor by saying of Cruz, "he’s owned by Goldman Sachs."  The CrowdPAC chart to the right shows that not only is he the largest recipient of Wall Street donations, he has MORE than Hillary. Suddenly those undisclosed loans from Goldman Sachs and Citibank take on a new light.  Two big reasons why this is damning:

The truth is "liquidate" to Ted was to get a sweetheart loan from his wife's employer and the CAMPAIGN paid it back.   The Cruz's were never out a penny.  And it was a Hillary-like "we were broke" moment.

**UPDATE** via TheGatewayPundit
And then there is THIS from the Ted Cruz campaign.  He says in a fund raising letter that he "will never get" nor does he want "money from D.C. lobbyists or the special interest billionaires."  And yet like Obama and Clinton BLATANTLY deceives based upon his own filings.

http://theconservativetreehouse.com/2016/02/11/who-is-the-real-ted-cruz/

THIS WON'T END BECAUSE OF WHO CRUZ HIRED

Here is a real sign of character.  When he was running for Senate, the Dewhurst campaign sent out a mailer smearing and lying that Cruz represented a Chinese company stealing American blueprints.  He even claimed he was incensed since it went to his father.  What did Cruz do?  He hired the man who created the mailer TO BE HIS presidential campaign architect.  A man who had no national political success to speak of at that time, but a reputation to be "the worst" of dirty politics, including driving some opponents to suicide.  What a perfect fit for a conservative Christian that will have to shed the "mean hypocritical Christian" label if he runs in a general election!  (I can't seem to find my sarcasm font - but you get the idea)

THE ENTIRE GOAL of the CRUZ CAMPAIGN ARCHITECT IS TO WIN DISHONESTLY, even if it means falsely accusing a fellow Christian.  And Ted Cruz embraces it.

Christians are told to judge a tree by it's fruit.  But instead of actually LOOKING at the fruit, they are buying everything the snake in the garden is telling them it is.

Hey Politijim, Rubio, Trump, (and everyone else) have worse sins!  Why single out Cruz??

Because, it's the HYPOCRISY stupid!  Who did Jesus curse?  Those who CLAIMED they were perfect and were keeping the Law.  Did you ever notice that God references 4 women in Jesus's lineage that ALL don't belong there by Old Testament Law?  Ruth was a Moabite and shouldn't have been allowed in a temple much less the bloodline of God.  Tamar seduced and slept with her Father in Law.  Rahab was a prostitute.  Bathsheba an exhibitionist who bathed nude so King David could see her.

You hate Trump because he had more than one wife?  Then you had better hate King David and Ronald Reagan.  Dislike Rubio because he was likely gay?  Then Cruz can't be any better declaring that he's fine if his daughter is.

If you are a Christian, you are saved by GRACE and nothing else.  There isn't a single Bible character God used who was the Billy Graham or Mother Theresa of their day.  But he DOES look at the heart.  Reagan hated abortion and even expanded it in California.  But at least he could explain why he changed and didn't try and excuse his past decisions.  He owned up to them.  The only thing I've heard Cruz say he made a mistake was being arrogant on the Bush campaign.  Sure he said he could do better on tithing, but then he LIED to the Christian reporter saying it only happened when he was "newly married man."  The truth is that long after he was "newly married" his entire reported GIVING (much less his 10% tithing) was only 0.86%.  (Mitt Romney, who most evangelicals despised gave between 20% to 30% in any given year.)

Do you want a candidate who is transparent with who he is, or one that is continually crafting a false image to deceive people?

And it's worse.  Much, much worse.  Ted has been working with Mitch McConnell, including funding the NRSC - who he castigated and castigates as RINO's - from his own PAC since he got in office!

You’ll note Senator Ted Cruz never once campaigned for a conservative challengers to incumbents in the 2014 mid-term campaign races – nor did he ever discuss the absence of a federal budget now the republicans were in control of both the House and the Senate.
While publicly railing against what he called the DC Cartel, a group he was bound to assist from his prior pledge to them, he worked to deliver their goals nonetheless. 

And NOW we find that a shadowy SuperPAC, with millions from unidentified donors is run by the former attorney for Mitch McConnell and attack ALL Cruz competitors.  One of the big donors behind this? German born Peter Thiel founder of Paypal with DEEP CIA/FBI/DARPA ties.  Thiel was one of the first investors of Facebook and as biggest shareholder in Palantir, is deeply enmeshed with government at all levels including the Obama White House.  Anonymous uncovered efforts by Thiel's company to "spread disinformation" about journalist Greg Greenwald's work.

Up until two years ago, Cruz would wax poetic on the legal justification for everything from an anti-abortion Constitutional amendment to ...whatever.  It was his calling card as an originalist, Constitutional lawyer who had argued cases before the Supreme Court.  Just look how articulate he is in discussing the ObamaCare, Gay Marriage and Judicial retention rulings and Constitutional Amendments.  

But just like in the interview above he said "I'm not interested in trashing other Republicans," and now castigates his opponents daily - he also reverses course when it comes to his true eligibility.  In October of 2013 he was asked if he can run for President since he was born in Canada and at that time had STILL not renounced his Canadian citizenship.  His answer?  "I won't get into the legal arguments."

Now WHY would someone with such experience, legal brilliance and superb communication skills NOT take a chance to address it?

I submit it's because he ALREADY KNOWS the truth.  

He knows the John Jay and George Washington changed the first draft of the Constitution to strengthen the qualifications for President from someone merely born in the US to anyone, to someone who has to be born in the US to TWO CITIZEN PARENTS.  He knows the Immigration Act of 1790, which his campaign and operatives tout to allow foreign born citizens to be considered "natural born citizens" was not just amended BUT REPEALED, and replaced with the Act of 1795 that makes it clear foreign born citizens are NOT "natural born citizens."  We even have the ORIGINAL House of Representative notes that explains why they thought foreign born candidates like Cruz, or US soil born candidates without two US citizen parents like Rubio and Valarie Jarrett - were unconstitutional.  He knows that there have been a myriad of SCOTUS cases that EXPLICITLY address the issue.  And he knows most of America, even most of his Christian followers, will buy his lighthearted dismissal the same way Obama followers did.

You feel there is no other alternative but Cruz?  Great.  Support him.  But please spare the rest of us your sanctimonious lies that he doesn't have some very, very serious issues.

At LEAST do us the favor of obtaining DOCUMENTATION of his US Citizenship.  Since 1919 the Federal Government has required a Consular Record of Birth Abroad, to be filed by the US citizen parent (with the child appearing before the US immigration official).  So forget "natural born citizen" for a minute.  Since Ted was born in Calgary, he could at least prove HE came here legally, and followed the rules that millions of others have had to claim their CITIZENSHIP honestly.  That would be a good start.
