Political right-wing extremist and constant critic of America and Americans, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz recently described his ilk as "the children of Reagan," referring to Conservative icon former President Ronald Reagan.

Quote:
Tea Party favorite Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) told New York Republicans on
Wednesday night to remain optimistic about the country’s future because a new
generation of leaders — “the children of Reagan” — have taken over to lead the
fight for conservatives.

Reagan is probably tossing back and forth in his coffin with these anti-Americans tossing about his name, and using the name of the dead President to endorse their dirty deeds. But it seems to me that this is the response Reagan would have for these imposters:




And then consider this:

Quote:

Conservatives seem to be in such denial about the less flattering aspects of Reagan; it sometimes appears as if they genuinely don’t know the truth of his legacy.

1. Reagan was a serial tax raiser.

2. Reagan nearly tripled the federal budget deficit.

3. Unemployment soared after Reagan’s 1981 tax cuts.

4. Reagan grew the size of the federal government tremendously.

5. Reagan did little to fight a woman’s right to choose.

6. Reagan was a“bellicose peacenik.”

7. Reagan gave amnesty to 3 million undocumented immigrants.

8. Reagan illegally funneled weapons to Iran.

9. Reagan vetoed a comprehensive anti-Apartheid act.

10. Reagan helped create the Taliban and Osama Bin Laden.

After 30 years they realize Reagan is still wildly ppoular with the American public. So they invented a list to say he was liberal and any current Republican is way right of him. lols.

Liberals/prgressive/democrats do this constantly. Anyone or any idea that was positive they claim as their own. Even though they fought against it at the time. Womens, workers, and civil rights are good examples of this. They want us to believe they were for them, even though history proves they were against them.

Difficult as it may be for you to do, try to pay attention to a discussion before responding. It was one of the section leaders of the American Taliban who invoked the name of President Reagan. And, correctly, I've pointed to information which would cause a reasonably intelligent person to know that Sen. Cruz probably flunked his American History quiz in high school.

So please enlighten us....why is Ted Cruz an American Taliban??? Seems like your current administration is closer to the Taliban than Ted Cruz...

Better yet why don't you take a look at the Chicago thugs that are running a wonderful city.

How do you want people to take your thread seriously when you can't even be un bias in the title?

There is no such thing as The American Taliban. Anyone who utters the phrase is an ignoramus.
