Lyin' Ted gave his word, but does his word mean anything?

[AlwaysWrite]

Listen to the words of Lyin' Ted Cruz, who says, when asked (during a debate) whether he will support the GOP nominee, even if that person is Donald J. Trump.

His answer: "YES, BECAUSE I GAVE MY WORD that I would, and what I have endeavored to do every day in the Senate is to do what I said I would do."

Really?

 

[9andaWiggle]

They don't call him Lyin' Ted for nothing!

 

[MI2AZ]

You do realize that Trump lies just as much.

 

[9andaWiggle]

As do all the others. Yes, I have no delusions that ANY of them are 100% (or even 50%) truthful.

 

[MI2AZ]

Yeah, I meant to add as much as any other politician. Part of the job description, I think.

... which is one of the reasons we need term limits. That way, after lying their way into office, they'd only be able to lie and deceive the American people for a maximum 12 years or so. But even then, we'd just have more slates of liars to choose from.

AND TED SAID TODAY HE WOULD REENTER THE ELECTION PROCESS IF THE VOTERS WANT HIM TO. WHAT!?

 

[9andaWiggle]

By "voters" I'm sure he means "the republican establishment".

I'm not going to capitalize "republican" any more... they don't deserve even that slightest bit of respect.

How about calling them RePUBICans?

... but Lyin' Ted was apparently counting on somehow winning in Nebraska, but that didn't happen.

Only person more repulsive than Ted is Glenn Beck.

Dear Spider:

I'll second that statement.

Here's Lyin' Jeb asserting that he would support a Trump nomination ... "Yes, I would of course. We need to be unified, we need to win."

Dear MI2AZ:

How could Trump POSSIBLY lie as much as Hillary?

Well, I do believe he open his mouth more and wider. But at least his lies are variable from one day to the next.

... but changing and/or clarifying positions on issues is hardly equivalent to statements intended to deceive, cover up and mislead.

Listen to someone who knows Ted Cruz and has fully researched Lyin' Ted ... and why he asserts that Ted is "an insider's insider" and how Ted "works for the enemy" ...

I'm trying to figure out why it matters? Trumps in and Cruz is out.

... but less than two weeks ago, Lyin' Ted seemed to be leaving the door open to get back into the race, and the GOP establishment is still checking into the possibilities of a third-party candidacy.

I'm trying to figure out why it matters? Trumps in and Cruz is out.

+1. This is 100% my point.
