The religiosity was unabashed at Cruz’s “Rally for Religious Liberty,” an event intended to help him harness frustration among religious conservatives, a key bloc in the Iowa caucus. Cruz’s state campaign chairman, Matt Schultz, went so far as to portray the Texas senator as God’s top choice for president.
“We need someone who will go to Washington and throw the money-changers out,” he said, comparing Cruz to Jesus himself. “God raises special men and women to protect his people, and I believe this is one of those moments in time. ... Ted Cruz is that man who God has prepared for this moment in time.”
Okay first, according to conservatives, God picked Ronald Reagan, then George W. Bush, followed by Sarah Palin, and now Ted Cruz.
Seriously which one of you pissed God off?
Are those FSM tendrils coming out of his nose?
ReplyDeleteIt is satan's testicles hairy gonads, Johnson and anus that you see.
DeleteProof positive that there is no god...then again, god being the sadistic sonofabitch that he his, it might be entirely possible that he foisted a blasphemous asshole like Cruz on the general public.
ReplyDeleteMaybe so. However, the natural conclusion is that God also chose him to fail miserably to demonstrate how God feels about fucking assholes.
ReplyDeleteThe more these people come out of the woodwork, the more people are going to have to stop believing in any gods.
ReplyDeleteYep. It's like the Rapture dates that have come and gone for so many years. It just makes god-botherers and the whole religious nonsense look even more insane.
DeleteWhat manner of entity would elevate Sarah Palin to the national stage? Unless God is a grumpy old career politician with an ego problem, then mere mortal old fool John McCain did it.
ReplyDeleteA different mere mortal old fool sired Ted Cruz, too. No gods were necessary.
I have to wonder if these idiots even believe the bullcrap that spills out of their cakeholes. It's not hard to see that Sarah Palin uses religion for a purpose- all her life she has used it to divide and exclude and persecute. I very much doubt that she ever had any real faith, given God never uncrossed her eyes.
I think Ted Cruz may just be insane and egotistical enough to believe he has been chosen by God. From what I've seen, his arrogance and self-righteousness is overwhelming.
DeleteWhen will these asswipes learn?
ReplyDeleteGod does not pick politicians, he only decides which football team will win.
And who wins Grammys'.
DeleteAnd who gets all the money.
DeleteWhere is that bolt of lightening when we need it????

ReplyDelete"Beware of false prophets who come disguised as harmless sheep but are really vicious wolves." Matthew 7:15
"For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and omens, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect."
ReplyDelete—Matthew 24:24 and Mark 13:22 NRSV (1989)
If there actually were a God, people like Ted Cruz would have been struck by lightening a long time ago.
ReplyDeleteanchor away........ahoy. yep. the weather was bad on that birth day in Canada. lightening and flashing everywhere. Scary to say the least ))))O((((
DeleteIt's actually spelled "lightning".
DeleteTypo, sorry.
Deleteditto
DeleteI guess God and the rest of us will just have to agree to disagree.
ReplyDeleteGod's so jealous: what he couldn't have done with a bunch of microphones and a head-full of Brylcream!
ReplyDeleteI guess that pokey old fisherman/carpenter Jesus will finally just have to retire from the main stage. He still can go off and lecture people about how they're supposed to love each other, if they bother to listen.
Watch out, world! God's got a new favorite son!
“We need someone who will go to Washington and throw the money-changers out,” Schultz said, comparing Cruz to Jesus himself.
ReplyDeleteThe money-changers Jesus spoke of were in the CHURCHES, right? -- not in the government's buildings.
Separation of Church and State: read the constitution much, you guys?
Ted's crazy father likely started that rumor. He rips off txpayers with his tax free church. Time to investigate. Where is Ted's mother? Is she hiding in shame? Someone said she gave up her US citizenship before he was born. If that is true, we need to know about it.
DeleteThe money-changers Jesus spoke of were in the CHURCHES, right?
DeleteWell, the courtyard of the (one and only) Temple, actually. One had to have the right currency to pay the temple tax and to purchase sacrificial doves and other critters—hence the perceived need for money-changers.
"Separation of Church and State: read the constitution much, you guys?"
Delete-------------------------
Hell, they could read their precious Bible; "render unto Caesar, etc. etc.).
Of course, they have no more read the Bible than they have the Constitution.
God sure is a fickle joker!
ReplyDeleteWith lousy taste! Of all the DECENT people in this country, why Rafael??
DeleteHey, wait a cotton pickin minute. Where is our sara in this satanistic photo. after all........her god chose her as the leader of her own little world too. It is the same one as teddy!!!!! both untramanurers for evil doers and loons.
ReplyDeleteGod? Why would she want Cruz? She's got better taste than that.
ReplyDeleteQuick! Someone let bristol and $arah know the repugs in Congress want to introduce "freedom of religious" bill that will allow employers to fire women who have children but no husband.
ReplyDeleteGod also told Michele Bachmann to run for Pres. I think the evidence is too compelling to ignore - his channel's been hacked.
ReplyDeleteOT

God told me to tell Ted to go ---- himself.
ReplyDeleteCruz screws!
ReplyDeleteThis is what I hear, (with my super duper hear all ears) Rafael say, God chose me to be God, er... I mean King, er... Pres., oh hell, as usual, I don't know what I mean, but it's good to be King. My Dad said so.
The last presidential election had three candidates who claimed god compelled them to run. So either they are full of hubris or god is screwing with them....
ReplyDeleteMeghan in PA
I would diagnose them as mentally ill and a continuation of the insanity.
DeleteI thought jeebus had to come back through the clouds on a firey steed before he made his presence known on earth??? And threw the money changers out of the TEMPLE one more time...
ReplyDeleteSounds like Raffie has skipped a step.
I think we should nail him to a cross...the swastika.
ReplyDeleteI think God is a trouble maker.
ReplyDeleteTed Cruz and his father are aligned with the New Apostolic Reformation (NAR), the same group that supported Rick Perry in 2012 and from whence cometh Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteIn 2009, NAR leader, C.Peter Wagner, said the decline of Japan’s economy was due to new Japanese Emperor having sex with the Sun Goddess, a demonic being.

According to Donald Trump he should be deported.
ReplyDeleteUp to this point, the media has kept Cruz out of their 'religious' category in which they've placed Huckabee and Carson, in spite of his attendance at these sorts of rallies since his campaign for the Senate. It will be complete negligence if they continue to do so.
ReplyDeletePerry, Walker, and Rand should also be considered fundamentalist candidates.
God's laughing his ass off!
ReplyDeleteCorrection: God is laughing her ass off!
DeleteI wonder how long Cruz will be able to keep dear old dad (crazy ass god botherer) muzzled? Because once that clown escapes, Cruz will have even less credibility than he does now.
ReplyDeletecorrect. Can se get a statement from mr cruz sr please?
Deleteomg, I meant Rubio. A previous post about Cruz being nice looking but too bad a repub. Gracious, really I meant Rubio.
ReplyDeleteI guess I wasn't really paying attention when I had a post here a few days ago.
Gast!
Yo, Ted, Cher made that headdress "work", on you, it just looks silly. And blend the eyeshadow, you know, like the pros.
ReplyDeleteThe article is a must read, folks. The poor christian art gallery turned wedding venue owners got fined for not serving a same sex marriage, and, alas, were so persecuted, they shuttered their business. Reverand Saeed is held hostage in Iran, supposedly because he was "converting" people to christianity without knowing Iran's stance on preaching the gospel, and we got a "bad deal" because our non christian nation's tax money isn't being used to rescue the Reverend. Of course he doesn't realize the "Deal" wasn't between just two nations, and why doesn't the church that sent him on his mission not use their money and resources to "rescue" the reverend?
Cruz is going to washington to toss out the money counters! LMAO. Bless his white silk panties!!!
Thanks, Gryphen, for your choice of photos, the self appointed "chosen one", as he imagines himself in that Grandpapa Addam's noggin of his.

Thom Hartmann shares a story that Cruz' father Rafael Cruz indicated that his son was among the evangelical Christians who are anointed as "kings" to take control of all sectors of society, an agenda commonly referred to as the "Seven Mountains" mandate.
