[EarlG]

Ted Cruz says America is best when ‘she is lying down with her back on the mat’ in terrible New York concession speech

1. Did he suspend his campaign?

[forest444]

20. God, I hope not.

I like my Republican conventions like my steak: the bloodier, the better.

[turbinetree]

35. This "convention"......................of the grand poohbah's.........

and they and I mean "they" will be dancing around with pitch folks and speaking in blathering tongues, and all of them, and I mean "all" of them with clown suits on with the addition of with pointed little hats sitting on there pointed heads.......................and just think.........................REP.Paul Ryan, yep, Represenative Paul Ryan, has that classy sound of words "Representaive", from Janesville, Wisconsin and even his side kicks, the entire right wing racist legislature,(Federal and state) all of the right wing justices ( the same ones that are suppose to be equal under the law------------right) , and there newly elected corporate bought Justice Bradley, are going to be standing behind this leader and he, is going to be the head hypocrite, leading this racists show------------------------------Hell maybe the Koch's, Mellon, Popes, Scaife, and lets not forget good old Mittens, and all of the other hacks of hypocrisy will show there face, and the public can see it live, with there pointed lttle hats on...............................for starters

Honk-----------------for a political revolution Bernie 2016

[forest444]

42. Well, it would certainly be cosmic justice.

And provided no one is killed, I for one relish the thought.

[lastlib]

65. I think we should set up a small pool......

Which candidate's delegates will start the riots?

My money's on Cruz's.......at 9-7........

. . .

[brush]

54. No wonder his name is rumored to be in the DC Madam's phone book

[christx30]

58. No kidding.

Did he mean "America"? or Amanda?

[brush]

59. Now that made me laugh out loud. Good one.

[1StrongBlackMan]

2. LOL ...

[whereisjustice]

3. If this site is about progress why feature Republicans?

Very strange. Every picture of Trump and Cruz just gives them credibity and exposure they don't deserve. Marketing 101 ... Graded F.

[Hekate]

21. Comprehension of Mockery 101.... Graded F.

SMH

[RiverNoord]

28. I triple-read the post just to make sure I had it correctly...

Major fail, there .

[whereisjustice]

74. Really? You want Trump and Cruz plastered here everyday? WTF? Democrats can't market their

own vision because smarmy self-satisfied conservatives in the Democratic Party think there is no need to push the positive values of LIBERAL thinkng.

No they cower behind images of Republicans afraid to discus their own values with no more intellectual ideas and vision than to "say" see we aren't as bad as those guys.

Seriously disturbing turn for the worse in the Democratic Party. Cowering behind Wall Street to pave a path forward.

Who are the heroes and champions of the working class? You'll never learn about it here.

[RiverNoord]

32. And now that I think about it, even phrased as it was likely meant to sound,...

does our country really have to have its 'back to the wall' for it to be at its best?

I think it would have sounded worse if he hadn't mucked it up so brilliantly. Apparently the assertion is that when our country is in generally good shape, on the whole, we're... so-so. But when we're in serious trouble (the last time we were in really, really serious trouble was probably the Great Depression), we're tops.

Which runs utterly contrary to... um... our entire history?

But whatever, Republicans don't expect their politicians to say things that actually make sense.

[robbob]

49. Exactly what I thought

...kind of like, "Our country is at it's best when we are recovering from a major catastrophe; elect me, and you will get to see what I mean..."

...over and over...

[christx30]

22. Really? Because I think a 30 second ad

featuring nothing but Cruz's face would be a great anti-Cruz ad.

[elljay]

25. Also a great natural laxative. nt

[RiverNoord]

33. lol

Maybe with the addition of:

"THIS GUY?"
"SERIOUSLY?"

on the screen...

Now that I think about it, that might be the perfect anti-Trump ad. Every single anti-Trump ad - just a lot of pictures and videos of Trump being himself, with those words on the bottom of the screen.

[MyOwnPeace]

43. Marketing 101:

"Keep your friends close - and your enemies closer."

This has often been attributed to Sun Tzu and sometimes to Niccolò Machiavelli or Petrarch, but there are no published sources yet found which predate its use by "Michael Corleone" in The Godfather Part II (1974), written by Mario Puzo & Francis Ford Coppola: "My father taught me many things here — he taught me in this room. He taught me — keep your friends close but your enemies closer."

[whereisjustice]

75. But you don't promote your enemies in full page photos on your site every day...

a seriously stupid idea. Gives cover to the conservatives who do not want change in within their own party.

You don't understand how the media desensitizes people to Trump and Cruz. Facism is being promoted as a legitimate alternative to Democracy today. Something that parallelizes the worst movements throughout world history.

We get Trump and Cruz 24/7 as it is. Why come here to see them again EVERY FUCKING DAY?

Further more it speaks volumes to the lack of imagination and vision of the Democratic Party who cannot build a brand the that promotes a party that would benefit the working class because it might alienate Wall Street who views the working class like meat for the market.

On the one hand people complain about US school systems and then we beat down anything outside the status quo.

Sorry to be so harsh, but that warrior bullshit is overrated cliche used as an excuse for doing the wrong thing at the wrong time.

[onehandle]

4. Does anyone seriously believe that Hillary cannot defeat these clowns? nt

[RiverNoord]

34. It won't be Cruz. It'll be Trump.

And yes, I'm very concerned about that match-up.

Wide public perception of both of them is very similar.

Sadly, he'd have the advantage on the question of 'says what she/he means' (even if what he means only lasts for a few minutes, then disappears into the strange and disturbing graveyard realm of 'things Donald Trump once thought made sense.')

[gordianot]

5. Who is willing to take advantage?

[liberal N proud]

6. No Ted, that was your mistress

[47of74]

7. Yeah.

LOL

[NewJeffCT]

12. that's what I was thinking

Is this the sequel to 50 Shades of Grey?

[47of74]

8. Was Ted thinking of having sexy time with 'Murica then?

[Spitfire of ATJ]

10. He would flip her over for that.

[Spitfire of ATJ]

9. Was this written down for him?

[UtahLib]

11. The musings of a putrid mind. eom

[Hekate]

23. Have you seen the excerpts from that bill he wrote in Texas to ban sex toys?

He goes into SUCH graphic detail.

Back in the old days some conservative groused that as regards porn or the obscene "I know it when I see it." Well Ted, we see you.

[Akicita]

13. So Ted's got a thing for Lady Liberty. Now it makes sense. He talks about her all the time.

[PatrickforO]

14. ...lying down with her back on the mat...and what?

Getting fucked by Wall Street, the MIC and big multinational corporations while being held down by fundamentalist 'christians' and John Birchers?

I don't think we'll be at our best until we cast off the fetters of neoliberal capitalism and neoconservative empire. When we have a government that upholds our interests and advances positions and policies that promote social, economic and environmental justice and takes a leadership role in creating a worldwide economy that operates based on human need instead of human greed, THEN we will be at our best. A light on the hill.

And you know what? Don't sit there and tell me I'm some kind of unicorn because that's bullshit. This is the way our government SHOULD, and how our lives SHOULD be. Instead of saying, "Oh, that's a pipe dream," stand up and demand it!

We the people are the ONLY thing of which the billionaire parasites are afraid. Let's drive them all back under the rocks with the rest of the squirming maggots.

[tclambert]

26. And cooing, "Oh, Teddy, your hands are so much bigger than Donald's."

[appalachiablue]

29. +5

[RiverNoord]

30. I'm leaning toward 'the idiot accidentally said what really meant for once in his sad, shameful...

political 'career.''

Just like Trump mentioning his 7/11 trip while the towers fell...

I think something like 'Get American Up off Her Back' would be a suitable bumper sticker retort...

[Jamaal510]

15. ...

[IMG][/IMG]

[louis-t]

45. What's this guy's name? Johnny...

Can't remember.

[Jamaal510]

67. Johnny Bravo. nt

[louis-t]

71. Talks like Elvis, right?

Only saw it a few times.

[Jamaal510]

73. Yeah,

he talked like elvis (saying "hoo-hah!" all the time), and he used to hit on every woman he saw.

[louis-t]

76. Right, he'd say "Hey Mama!"

[SunSeeker]

16. Cruz makes my skin crawl.

[Iliyah]

17. Oh my

[Fritz Walter]

18. He's lower than whale shit in the Marianas Trench

Not to mention a sore loser!

[Hortensis]

19. What do we call "Freudian slips" these days, anyway?

Creepy and sinister to the Nth. Thank goodness he's terrible at hiding it.

[3catwoman3]

50. We could call them...

...accidental truth telling.

[Hortensis]

55. Yes. It seems likely some truth slipped out here.

Yuck.

[tclambert]

24. The eloquence of Republicans is truly inspiring.

You may feel free to substitute other words in place of "inspiring." Perhaps "horrifying" or "nauseating" or "deserving of contempt" might apply.

[HillareeeHillaraah]

27. Didn't know the Senator was hard of hearing...

Apparently he's tone deaf ~

[ReRe]

31. Well, there you go...

... more or less admitting that he is on that DC Madam's list? And another thing... he says he wouldn't let his little girls go in the bathroom if there might be a trans person in there. If I had two little girls, I damn sure wouldn't send them into ANY public bathroom without their mother or aunt, an adult female. To be so damn religious, he sure has a dirty mind.

[complain jane]

64. They ALL do!

Every religious zealot has something going on behind the scenes.

Not referring to people who are religious here, but only the super-intense overzealous freaks.

[Contrary1]

36. From the linked article:

"The Texas senator fared so poorly in New York that Ben Carson, who dropped out of the race more than a month ago, beat him in one Weschester district..."

[TomCADem]

37. Again, Creepy!

Nt

[CRH]

38. Lucky it wasn't Trump, ...

he would have added … with lady liberty spreading her ...

[NastyRiffraff]

39. WTF??

What does that even mean? Besides showing what Teddy has on his mind.

[MADem]

40. It sounds like TED wants to HAVE CONGRESS with AMERICA!!!!

EWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!

[rurallib]

41. Must have gotten that line from his Madame a few years back

[louis-t]

44. Ahh, how easily the stupid rolls off the tongues

of the GOP.

[yellowcanine]

46. Well that is just weird and creepy, Ted.

[King_Klonopin]

47. HOW DOES HE DO IT ! CREEPIER BY THE DAY ! Sigmund Freud was right. nt

[urbuddha]

48. Hillary would be as bad as any of the Republicans.

She might as well be one.

Bernie or Bust !

[thereismore]

51. I really don't understand why they pretend to hate her so much. She is a big neocon. RIP Democratic

party if she wins.

[Malbrownluna8708]

52. Senator Strange

He is going to blame it on the evil Obamaprompter that he was reading from.

[captainarizona]

53. watch out randy ted.

The republican establishment wants randy ted to force a second ballot and then they will lower the boom on him with his perversion that they have videos and pictures of him to enrage the evangelicals and get them to vote for third candidate.

[red dog 1]

56. He looks a lot like Mad magazine's Alfred E. Newman

What, me worry?

[AllyCat]

57. How can this man be considered a contender for

Anything? Just how? He is dreadful.

[redruddyred]

60. what an unbearably sexy man

i'd like to be his sixth mistress.

[nini]

61. God Help me for this . but I 'think' he was making a wrestling reference

Not saying he's not the creepiest mofo around.. but.

It doesn't make a ton of sense if it's wrestling reference since we wouldn't be at our best if we were down.

Oh God.. I feel dirty LOL

[TheCowsCameHome]

62. That face.........

....a badly-folded Picasso reject...........

[ornotna]

63. Backpfeifengesicht

What a face.

[Ilsa]

66. Every time I see this Pic of the Moment,

I wonder "WTF?", and get nauseous. I think someday his wife will decide he's too perverted to sleep with anymore, and eventually we'll all hear the sordid details of his creepy sex life.

[Lodestar]

68. How revealing. You can be sure what he has in mind to do to this country. n/t

[struggle4progress]

69. ummg ... urp

[47of74]

70. God can't sleep.

Sorry man. This ain't helping.

[fred v]

72. I now think I know why THIS happened
