Ted Cruz is donating water to Flint residents. Well, only if they’re pro-life.
What a piece of shit.
Ah yes, children are only worth something before they’re born. After, not so much.
I’ve often wondered when the Father-of-all-Lies gave up the idea of filling the airwaves with campaign commercials. You know, Old Scratch lobbying folks that “I’m still a bigger liar than Cruz!”
We can only speculate that he probably figured out that it would be starting way too late in the election cycle to affect public opinion.
Then again, maybe Cruz will make Old Scratch his running mate to patch up their differences.
Or Leo McKern.
Because he was too high?
Important stuff comes first.
Speaking of abortion, the investigation into the Planned Parenthood gotcha! videos has produced indictments. Against 2 of the assholes behind the videotaping!
Cruz probably figures the pro-choicers drink the blood of infants, so they don’t really need the water as badly.
Further evidence of the leftist conspiracy against pro-life patriots!
I was going to cry foul on this one, because no matter his opinions he is providing water to expectant mothers and their intended babies, even if he is working it for press - until I got to this line:
No. No, donate your own money, if you think you get to decide which are the “deserving poor” spend your own damned money, and then read the New Testament.
That miserable man can’t even do good well.
The water is going to crisis pregnancy centers.
I am aware of what crisis pregnancy centers are. I am also fairly certain they are frequently primarily by pregnant women, and I will not condemn a person for donating clean water to pregnant women.
I will even forgive a person for publicly donating the water. Asking other people to donate to an organization that will donate the water in your name? Nasty.
(I expect there will be lots of pregnant women in Flint who are so conflict about their pregnancies that they just keep visiting the centers, day after day, drinking bottle after bottle.)
He could have donated to the community. Instead, he wants the women to be subjected to anti-abortion propaganda before they get their bottle.
But the water is only going to go to the pregnant women who are going to be visiting crisis pregnancy centers. Not to other pregnant women who will be visiting their regular OBGyn or other clinics.
Steve Doocy had to explain on air to Brian Kilmeade that President Obama can’t run for a third term.
I suspect they can take it; they have been “subjected” to propaganda about what women should do and should be their entire lives. The Flint water is more dangerous right now than easily debunked propaganda.
Cruz has every right to choose what and to whom to donate, just like the rest of us; it’s his money.
Oh, wait …
Yes, I understand that. That is what the article said. I, like the women of Flint, am able to read, evaluate, come to a conclusion, and make a decision.
Not being able to provide enough of everything to everyone, Cruz directed his donation, just like the rest of us do. You may or may not agree with his values, but his donations are directing clean water to pregnant women. I will not condemn him for that anymore that I would support anyone condemning your donations to Planned Parenthood or other non-profit reproductive healthcare clinics in Flint.
I’m willing to write this off as just the generalized stupidity of morning-show commentary, though I admit feeling mild surprise that showed the tweet of Rick Sheridan: “To be honest, I believe [Obama] would beat anybody in the current GOP crop.” I’d’ve thought Fox News’s position would be that such a concept was on-its-face nonsensical, that Obama could not (and never actually has) “beat” a Republican candidate in a fair election.
I’ll make a deal with you then. Obama gets a third term automatically, thus making 2016 a midterm, in effect.
You might have mistaken me for someone who’s pro-Obama. At this point, I’m just recommending the U.S. become more anti-Republican, at least until a realignment leads the less sane elements of that party being jettisoned.
