    Default pO' ted cruz gets dissed Texas Senator John Cornyn refuses to endorse Ted Cruz



    Cornyn, the Senate majority whip, told CNN on Wednesday that he is “not going to get involved in any primary races, particularly with my colleagues in the Senate.” That echoes what Cruz said in 2014, when he promised to stay out of Senate primaries — including Cornyn’s.

    Cruz is facing the prospect of a serious challenger after he upset some Republicans by expressing no support for presidential nominee Donald Trump in July at the party’s national convention. U.S. Rep. Michael McCaul of Austin, who has been urged to take on Cruz, has not ruled out a run.

    As he has done before, Cornyn distanced himself Wednesday from efforts to draft a Cruz challenger, telling CNN he is “not recruiting anybody.”

    Cruz’s refusal to endorse Cornyn in the 2014 primary has contributed to speculation of a frosty relationship between Texas’ two U.S. senators. Cornyn went on to win decisively, beating former U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman of Friendswood and six other minor challengers.

    Cruz has not yet publicly commented on the buzz about a 2018 primary foe. But in a fundraising email last month, Cruz alluded to McCaul not ruling out a run and warned that the Republican establishment was seeking someone to challenge him.
    "There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

    Sounds like a lot of hot air from Bill. This is totally meaningless.

    cornyn needs to spend his vacation in a submarine with screen doors.
    A sad commentary on we, as a people, and our viewpoint of our freedom can be summed up like this. We have liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans, yet those very people look at Constitutionalists as radical and extreme.................so those liberals and conservatives, Democrats and Republicans must believe that the constitution is radical and extreme.

    We have the intellect to imagine the finality of our own demise but do not have the sophistication to overcome our survival instinct and accept it.
    Solution? Magical thinking and childish promises of everlasting life.
    Ergo, religion.

    rac·ist
    rāsəst/noun
    a person who believes that a particular race is superior to another.
    Ask yourself honestly if this describes what you believe to be true.
    If the answer is yes, you are a racist.
