Ted Cruz... I knew he was a liar but...

Holy Guacamole.. I am listening to him on MSNBC and I have heard at least 50 lies in the last 10 minutes. Lies Not just about Hillary but he is lying about Trump and Boehner.. I can't stand Trump or Boehner but Ted is lying about them sooo carelessly. It's an insult to his supporters intelligence IMO.

“Lucifer in the flesh,” Boehner said, according to Standford Daily. “I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.”

It's called being cynical. He knows his supporters are fucking idiots.

We've watched conservative ideologues use snake oil to supplement their conservative argument for 40 years.

Now the argument is pure snake oil. These people aren't conservatives. They are snake oil salesmen who see a market to be tapped for their own power and wealth.

They'll say anything because they know they will get away with it.
