Steve Benson for October 14, 2013

Cruz is the #1 candidate – among Democrats!

Too bad this isn’t anywhere near true.

You know, they have medications and treatments for delusional disorders now. See your doctor for more information.

Oh. Sorry you probably live in one of those states that won’t allow the Medicaid expansion.

Good bye 2012 early front runner Michelle, hello current front runner Ted. Embracing either one of these candidates says a lot about the depth of the party.

Will Boehner negotiate with the President and Democrats and lose his speaker position or will he hold with the extreme of the Republican party and damage the world economy? { as a twist of other commentors, the Tea Party are Republicans In Name Only}

Huh?…. The meds arn’t working Benson…!

Only the most moderate candidate (from either side) will have a chance at winning in 2016. I doubt Cruz will get past the first few months of the primaries. The extremes of both sides of the political spectrum do have a place in our government, but neither should be considered a viable leadership position. The extreme opinions should be listened to and used as the basis of political negotiations while working for a compromise, but should never be considered “gospel” and not used for an all or nothing stance.

I love the way cognitive dissonance manifests in the far-right-wing when it is clear that Cruz is leading a party of one and has utterly failed in his nonsensical attempt to defund Obamacare. MStevenson tries to blame the media AND liberals.Enoki just pretends he doesn’t understand and slurs Benson. Or maybe he is projecting and HE needs his meds renewed.

Cruz 2016! LOL!

One of your better posts! The one about Columbus day. See, you can be reasonable and tolerant, and even human, after all!!

Still no response from any of the birthers on whether Rafael Cruz is constitutionally eligible to be president of the U.S.

“Except it’s not Columbus day. It was Saturday, October 12.”It shouldn’t even be a holiday. What did Columbus “discover”? An already inhabited land.

Cruz and Palin in ‘16, a ticket that’s already been punched.

Go for it. None of the tea party voters have any savings anyway, nor do most have jobs. They have nothing to loose when the economy crashes.

Well…. neither do the Democrats have any job. The Democartas I see here have EBT cards, welfare checks and live in section 8 housing

Your neighbors in the project, Nancy?

Was there a ‘yes’ or a ‘no’ in there somewhere?

“It’s a silly question. Why would anyone give it credibility by answering it?”-Yeah, I guess it must be silly. Or maybe birthers are too embarrassed to give an honest answer.-Kind of like when Fox “news” viewers are asked whether the government shutdown is a good thing or a bad thing.
