D.B. Hirsch is a political activist, news junkie, and retired ad copy writer and spin doctor. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Real news. With snark, invective, and lots of links. Guaranteed behaving badly.

Now who’d have thought that this Canadian son of a Cuban evangelical whack-job would turn out to be a lying sociopath?

Yellow journalism?
Fact checking?
Don’t even bother.
If Ted says anything, it’s yellow cake and it’s designed to go nuclear over nothing.
If Ted opens his mouth, fact checking is a total waste of time.

“I was joking.”
Then your whole campaign has been a joke, because your followers believe everything you say, and you’re making them look like fools.
Will you apologize? Or will you say tomorrow that the IRS has 250,000 agents? I’m guessing the latter.

I think he’s jealous of Left Wing Facts and wants there to be Right Wing Facts that say the opposite. It’s kinda like antimatter or some sort of parallel universe where everything is the opposite of ours like a photographic negative. In such a world, Cruz would stand a chance of being right on various issues.

The GOP considers what they want to be facts – even if it don’t fit in reality.

maybe – if you total them all up since 1917?

Like Rush he was only joking till he gets caught

Darn those pesky things called facts!
What he was probably thinking to himself “my voting base doesn’t care, they have short term memories, as long as I blame Obama, and use the ‘fear card’ about our boarders I’ll get the votes….ha…my voting base doesn’t even watch this show!”

Teddy’s been spewing so much spin in a feeble attempt to “clarify” his previous inane comments that even HE has become a tad dizzy.
Perhaps he should simply pull “pull a Newt” and indignantly declare that ‘anybody who quotes me is a damned liar’.

Canadian born Cubans don’t have much of a sense of humor, especially when they know their folks helped to put Castro in power.
so, they LIE.

What a moron…typical gopee…don’t confuse him with the facts as he KNOWS them to be…Texas edition

He clearly says a bunch of 2 syllable words and people call him brilliant, seems like without the gullible, cruz would be in a rear view mirror by now.

he only said that because of the current political atmosphere.
he was only joking.
he didn’t mean it, like Mitt would have -not- said.

Truth finally comes out from this Ass’ hole!
jybarz April 12th, 2015 at 8:00 am
Hahaha! He tripped himself big time!

WTF is Sara’s big fat –
BUTT-
that’d be a whole different bout, wouldn’t it?
somebody give us a run down, please,
we got Ted
Rand
Romney (’cause the left side of his mouth said ‘no way’)
Ricky’s about to make his move if he doesn’t get caught dancing in an airport restroom stall,
Nikki and Lisa (impeccable DU! {means a lot to me} considering the Alaskan half governor quitter picked by John McCain’s crew) being held in reserve.
Murkowski/Clinton too close to call
