    Lying in front of the house/senate is also a crime. Are we gonna prosecute Ted Cruz?

    A Ted Cruz discussion without NoStop It? This is heresy!

    I just don't have any respect for Ted Cruz, and I'm really not interested in anything he has to say.

    It's not like the guy is here 24/7, there is no doubt he will be here eventually.

    But anyways I don't really think a good discussion will come from the thread. Ted Cruz committed terrorism in the senate, I can't give the dude fair consideration after his actions that directly damage the nation in many many ways.

    I love Ted "LOL" Cruz. He's the poster child for the stereotypical "sleazy politician" especially with that stupid smirk he always seems to have on his face.

    Lol no one even remembers that honestly, maybe you since you have a biased. It wasn't a big deal and was what the 18th time it happened? If it's such a big deal I'm sure you're familiar with all the other 17 right? Oh you aren't.....

    The US had it's name dragged through the mud twice in the fall, once by Barack Obama and his idiotic handling of "that time he ran his mouth about a red line with regards to Syria"*, and once by Ted Cruz, who is more opportunistic fraud than patriot.


    *note: I was extremely reluctant for Obama to strike Syria and still don't want him to. He basically talked himself into a corner and needlessly put our credibility on the line. That sticks with him too. His handling of the entire affair was inept.
    In general, a lot of us around the world really don't see them as being in any way related; starting another international war (or assault, or strike, or operation, or whatever people want to call it) is not something most people see as a good thing. So him abiding by common sense pretty drastically reduced the negative opinion as a result.

    Politicians like Ted Cruz, on the other hand, are consistent reminders of how messed up the US can be, and an unstable US is far more troublesome to consider than a US that decides to back down on threats of military action.

    well, with countries like Russia under Putin and china that changes. it of course doesn't ring with countries that are allies of the US.

    And those countries are likely to think poorly of the US no matter what. So it really doesn't matter what we do.

    As for the topic, nothing will come of it, much like that gaggle of senators who claimed President Obama was "threatening the Constitutional System." It's political grandstanding for his own benefit.

    well it's them acting on what they think is where we should be concerned. this issue with the Ukraine being the center piece. I highly doubt america and China will ever come to blows with each other, but I'm not feeling the same for Russia.

    If they act on the basis of our statements and not on the basis of our factual strength they're in for one hell of a short war.

    well THAT part I'm not worried about as much as that can possibly have a domino effect and drag other countries into it. if the heads of state all over the world don't lose their shit and start acting recklessly then yea lets star spangle their ass.

    When lumped into that group George Bush looks like a genius.
