Or what the people want the government to do, with the decisions made by those they elect.

What a dork chump Ted Cruz is. I love this answer he gave when asked what kind of music he liked.

So on a question asking about music, he evoked 9/11 saying he was a classic rock fan until 9/11. Then and ONLY then did he switch to country music because he didn't like the way the rock genre responded to 9/11 (how the hell does an entire genre of music you like offend you?) THEN he switched to listening to country music because he realized, and I quote, "these are my people."

Whip 'em out boys... Ted's already felating everyone for votes.

That was great. For a Harvard guy he is a real ****ing moron. Now that he is running for president we will really get to know what an azzhole he is. I like classic rock, I'm glad he switched.

In which case "the people" are more or less the rulers, at least those that they elect are.

That's how it should be, lobbying and money having a major part in politics has changed that, unfortunately.

It just says something about his character, and the democrats are divided, more so then the modern GOP. Defending Ted Cruz is hilarious, but I cannot garner respect for you after some previous remarks you've made which illuminate one of the problems with this nation.

I'm not defending Cruz. I'm laughing at you guys.

For what? I'm not the one who wants to increase defense and take away food stamps from millions of children.

I don't see why anyone has to stop fighting for what they believe in because you want them to.

Did I ever state that? I stated what my opinion is of the political reality. They know the vast negative consequences that will happen if they repealed the ACA, and they know the negative political ramifications greatly outweigh the positive. They will use the "repeal Obamacare" card for one more campaign cycle, then it will run its course. Hell, you essentially already see Ted Cruz moving away from it now..

You can't even keep on topic.

I'm not surprised you don't know why I'm laughing at you.

I'm still waiting for the "for what" and yes, it's relevant to bring up comparisons when one says they're laughing at me without saying why.

The government should inspire innovation, and it should help its poorest citizens, I truly hope you're a troll trying to make the right wing look bad.. If not, people like you are the reason this country is so backwards.

I'm the reason your philosophy that is rooted in slavery hasn't completely consumed this country. I'm the reason this country has any freedom left. Do inspire to be more than a sheep to the collective will, and for the love god, learn the importance of individual will.

If you want to help the poor and needy then you have something you find important and should see it happen. It is not my duty to see that your desires come to bear fruit and it is not in my interest to spend my money on whatever desire you dream up. The government has duties and one of those is to act in the peoples defense. They have no duty to make sure you have food on your table of to make sure you don't die or whatever illness you might have.

What's the matter? The insurance he buys isn't doing enough for you? Not hitting the proper "ridicule quotient"? Now you feel the need to dig even lower and talk about his choice of music? Next thing you know, you'll start talking about his underwear.

Oh...wait...people only care about what underwear Democrats wear. Oh well, I'm sure you find something equally banal to try to spin against him.

Let me apply some Republican logic to this... "SEEE!!!!! I hate him so looky how divisive he is!!!11!!!!!"

btw... he's the dork that talked about his music. Sorry if showing what he said offended you.

Like him wanting states to control gay marriage, his restrictions he wants to place on abortion.. it's not hard.

I'm talking about socialism. I'm talking about how it actually works in the real world outside of the dreams of some bum that couldn't even support himself.

For going to such lengths...for bringing up such inconsequential things...for trying to spin such things to ridicule a person you don't like.

And then...for veering off topic because your efforts are failing.

Yeah...I'm laughing at you.

Yes, I'm a bum who can't support myself, obviously. In the real world, countries with socialist policies and democracies work amazingly well, socialist states usually do not, as the ones in existence lack the proper democratic processes and stability. I would love a democratic socialist state, but I will attest to socialist leaning policies, which work.

And you refuse to address points made against you, instead talking about how "amusing" the others side is while not addressing it in any intelligent way. 10/10
