Ted Cruz speaks on the Senate floor about the insanity of the immigration "reform" bill.

How do we go about getting Sen. Cruz' picture added to the Websters dictionary next to the words 'statesman' and 'patriot'?

I only voted for him due to the Heller case. He appeared at the time to be a strong 2A supporter.

He has exceeded my wildest expectations - so far!

I like to hedge my bets. :biggrinjester:

For that matter, we should clone him 544 times. That would cover SCOTUS & POTUS. :rolll

Ted Cruz was born in Canada. So according to Article II, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution, he's ineligible to run for President.

Oh, and his explanation of the Amnesty Tax is a huge eye opener.

His mother was a US citizen. Cruz is eligible for POTUS.

:tiphat:

Wow, what a great speech and wow, what a horrible bill. GO Cruz! Hopefully, someone gets their head out of their behind and stops this nonsense. Indefensible is being nice.

Yeah... Moments like this are why I can never run for office. I'd consider it my solemn duty to so insult and offend that bill's supporters that they'd be unable to avoid assaulting me, and then I'd be in the hospital or dead, and neither of those options really appeals to me (though, if I could guarantee the former outcome rather than the latter, it might be worth it to get all the senate democrats arrested).
I am not a lawyer, nor have I played one on TV, nor did I stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, nor should anything I say be taken as legal advice. If it is important that any information be accurate, do not use me as the only source.

Ah, yes, you are correct. My bad.
