'We need a hundred more like Jesse
Helms in the U.S. Senate'
~Ted Cruz~
Ted
Cruz LUVS Jesse Helms - Why not, they're both American
White Supremacists.
On Rachel Maddow's Show a little history about Ted Cruz's
Idol Jesse Helms.
"If you had any doubt on whether or not Cruz was a
Bigot, your doubts can now be extinguished.
Ted Cruz is the personification of BIGOTRY. (Just like
The Late Jesse Helms)
What is so baffling about this, is the FACT that Ted Cruz
is so PROUD of it!" thethinkingblue

'We need a hundred more like Jesse Helms in the
U.S. Senate'
By Steve Benen

Nearly 11 years ago, then-Senate Majority Leader Trent
Lott (R) noted that his home state of Mississippi
supported Strom Thurmond's presidential candidacy in
1948. "If the rest of the country had followed our
lead," Lott said, "we wouldn't have had all
these problems over all these years either."
Given that Thurmond was running on a segregationist
platform in 1948, Lott's remarks were not well received.
Indeed, the Bush/Cheney White House quickly abandoned him
and Lott was forced to give up his post.
The incident came to mind yesterday after listening to
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
The Texas Republican spoke yesterday at the Heritage
Foundation, appearing at an event named after the late
Sen. Jesse Helms (R-N.C.), where Cruz was quite effusive
in his praise.
"I'll tell you something ... the very first
political contribution I ever made in my life was to
Jesse Helms. When I was a kid, I sent $10 to Jesse Helms,
'cause they were beating up on him, they were coming
after him hard and I thought it wasn't right, and at the
time my allowance was 50 cents a week," the Texas
Republican said. "I am willing to venture a guess
that I may have been Jesse Helms' single largest donor as
a percentage of annual income."
Cruz also recalled a story about when a young Helms
received a campaign donation check from John Wayne. He
explained that, according to the story, Helms figured out
how to get in touch with Wayne and called to thank him
for the support.
"Apparently Wayne said, 'Oh yeah, you're that guy
saying all those crazy things. We need 100 more like
you,'" Cruz said. "The willingness to say all
those crazy things is a rare, rare characteristic in this
town, and you know what? It's every bit as true now as it
was then. We need a hundred more like Jesse Helms in the
U.S. Senate."
Is that so.

ALL THOSE CRAZY THINGS?
What
is happening to America? It use to be, when NUTTY people
would say outrageous things, people would dismiss them as
batshit crazy. Now, their insanity is taken as something
reasonable and should be, not only listened to but
followed. SAY WHAT? thinkingblue
