I didn't think ANYBODY could irritate more than GWB... boy was I ever wrong.

Ted Cruz makes me nauseous. I can barely stand to see him, let alone hear him.
He's like one of those moronic characters on a sitcom that you love to hate.
And down the drain we swirl.

He enraged me.

When he came on the TV with his lies about why we needed to invade Iraq -- invoking 9/11 and manipulating the fear, grief, anger, & patriotism of the American people in the wake of he national tragedy he didn't lift a finger to prevent -- I wanted reach through the TV and throttle that lying sonfabitch

His lies, arrogance and cocky demeanor in the face of thousands of deaths caused by his total incompetence - I can't believe I didn't have a stroke. I loathe him.

I had to back away from all news, even on DU for about 4 months.

But I have to admit I'm backing away again because of all the crap from the Republicans against President Obama. It's distressing to see how cavalier and careless they are with people's lives and even with the planet itself.

Cruz's sophomoric histrionics and irritating voice are far worse than any performance by Bush and the lies are absolutely disgusting. He is indeed nauseating.

...and that is a very low bar that Cruz slithered under.

And this man holds degrees from Princeton University and Harvard Law School?

If I had a say so at those Institutions of "Higher Learning",
I would recall the diplomas given to Cruz as defective,
and not a reflection of the standards of these institutions.
