Unbelievable....Ted Cruz wants to abolish the IRS

HIS ad ran on CNN a few minutes ago giving an 800 number to call If you want the IRS abolished...

...nobody else in the ad...just him.....I found that shocking.....don't think I have seen another Senator make an ad that was not for reelection.

Couldn't understand the blip about who paid for it..

Anyone else see this on CNN?

Just saying "flat tax" over and over again doesn't fill in the gap.

Ted Cruz knows jack shit about being a United States Senator. Even dim bulbs like McCain understand that.

12. Saying the words of his Koch masters, and getting the Alex Jones vote.

This stuff is all over the country. They have been saying for years that the IRS and Federal Reserve are an international plot by the evil banksters.

So many people of some many persuasions have fallen for it, that it's an article of faith in the new religion.

Cruz and the baggers just getting more honest and telling us the Koch brothers message. No taxes ever on the rich, let them take over, pay them directly.

The IRS is the enforcer of the tryranny of socialism. To kill the statist, communist and illegal government, 'starve the beast' and 'drown it in a bathtub.'

That's why the media is in high gear preaching fear of governent tryanny. People don't know what true fascism is. When the government of the people is bankrupted and gone once and for all, the rich and corporations have nothing in their way.

Don't vote folks. Don't get involved. Let Charles and Mitt make all those decisions for you.

Really, no one here at DU saw this coming at all?
