Cruz kind of looks like a blowhard to me.  Like what Jessie Jackson would have been like if he had ever actually gotten elected to something.

Ehh, possibly-- but with less rhyming & whatnot.

And less Cocoa Butter.

They have both read Dr. Seuss in front of a large audience, though :hmm:

And as a Latino, how does that make you feel?

Given that I have Mexican family in Texas, I'm not all that keen on it. Thanks for asking.

He wasn't there again today
I wish, I wish he'd go away...

I may stand with Rand, but I cruise with Cruz  :cool:

I was impressed how he voted against aid for Hurricane Sandy victims, and for aid to the Texas town that was blown up by a fertilizer plant.

:yawn:

Don't forget, Cards game starts at noon Central.

I guess you didn't know about that one :lol:
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

I am pretty sure you have brought that one up before Raz.

And Derspeiss will forget it by the end of the day.

Valmy, so you don't see this as having any real affect on things down there? I'd hoped that all of the support she received by Texans during the filibuster might translate into something real for her.

I think it might so I find it interesting.  I just do not think it likely.

It will certainly get my wife excited.  I predict Wendy Davis campaign stickers and pink shoes in my near future :bleeding:  :lol:

That's be one hell of a kick in the teeth to Republicans, losing Texas' governorship. They might actually start jettisoning the Tea Partiers then.

Someone has to teach those MEN :angry:
Yep. Those men in particular are definitely in need of an education. Well said. :)

Her dad did make pretty good hamburgers.

Their new fries are good.

Wendy's is actually one of my favorite fast food places and the one by my house is either being demolished or remodled.  TEH HORRAH!
