Yeesh!

And don't even get these guys started on the ancient Greeks.<br /><br /><i>Hey, they've had almost 8 years to get used to Barack, Rafael should have been easy!</i><br /><br />Except that the Repubs are trying to appeal specifically to that subset of Americans who have <i>refused</i> all these years to get used to "Barack". Anyway, "Rafael" would be too confusing for them to spell -- "Ted" is probably the most challenging name they could manage.<br /><br />What a ridiculous man.

Never mind Chaucer and Shakespeare."<br /><br />Well, yes, of course, but the devices have to do with S.E.X. and P.L.E.A.S.U.R.E. and that's more of a threat to panty-sniffers like Cruz than poisoned drinking water. Face it. If you're a Ted Cruz looking to ingratiate yourself with that crowd, always choose to go after anything to do with people's genitals. That's always a vote winner.<br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-47250935466887580062016-04-15T16:58:38.996-04:002016-04-15T16:58:38.996-04:00Dave, Cruz's name in Wiki is listed as Rafael ...<br />Dave, Cruz's name in Wiki is listed as Rafael Edward Cruz. I Eduardo is Spanish (and Italian) for Edward. "Ted" is a nickname, as we know, for Edward. Don't know why he dropped "Rafael," his given name. It's beautiful and noble.

A majority of Americans don't like his thuggish, crass "telling it like it is."<br /><br /><b>"Seventy-eight percent of Americans, “including most Republicans, see the Republican race as discourteous”, according to a new poll by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.<br /><br />“Only about half as many — 41 percent — say the same about the Democratic campaign.”<br /><br />More bad news for Republicans in that the poll found that people disapprove of sexist statements in public, and find vulgar language and bigoted comments to be inappropriate. There goes Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, and sadly even John Kasich.<br />The thing is, people really don’t want to hear leaders say this stuff in public. “More than 80 percent say remarks and jokes about race or about gender and sexuality are unacceptable. There is less condemnation for these types of comments made in private, but more than 6 in 10 regard them as improper there as well.”<br /><br />In an analysis of the poll, the AP posited, “There are deep cultural roots to Americans’ dislike of rudeness in their leaders.”</b><br />Shaw Kenawehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08637273000409613497noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-46282964355218906532016-04-15T16:21:50.165-04:002016-04-15T16:21:50.165-04:00Hey... if his name is Rafael Eduardo... where is T...Hey... if his name is Rafael Eduardo... where is Ted from?<br /><br />The nickname for Rafael is Rafa and for Eduardo, it's Lalo...<br /><br />I wonder why he uses Ted?<br /><br />Dave Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16777087329254991970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1883838569462983439.post-82165853876582307432016-04-15T12:43:26.281-04:002016-04-15T12:43:26.281-04:00Blue... you're too hard on them.
At least for...Blue... you're too hard on them.<br /><br />At least for me, I tend to take the charitable route on the war(s). Did they lie? No, of course not. They were just wrong, and that alone should DQ them from another chance. I mean, what else can it be? Either they did lie, or they were wrong on every strategic decision leading up to the war. Since I want them assume good intent on the Dems, I must believe that for them. Ergo, they just blew it, with tragic consequences.<br /><br />On the water, I can see a pol thinking he was saving money, and blowing it. I am sure the GOP folks in Michigan hate the fact that kids will forever be tainted by their water. Again, good intent, but once again, tragic consequences.<br /><br />More than anything, it is empirical evidence of incompetence.<br /><br />As for sex... well, not much we can say about that. Their stance is frequently informed by their religious interpretations of the bible. I may not like their conclusions, but if they want to inject their faith into the political arena, and demand others acquiesce to those views, they should not squabble when us more liberal evangelicals cite other parts of the Bible and expect the same. Stuff like love your neighbor, welcome the immigrant, sell your possessions and give to the poor, etc.<br /><br />November will tell... that's for sure.
