They Were Not the Only Ones to Die, or Act Honorably

It was reported that Ted Cruz apologized, to all the social conservatives in New York, for his comment last night about New York values. Social conservatives were not the only ones to die on 9/11. They also were not the only ones to act honorably. I imagine a number of the police officers and firefighters who rushed into the Twin Towers and died on 9/11 were Democrats and Liberals. I imagine that a number of the people who joined in the recovery efforts and give their time, money, and blood were Democrats and Liberals. It is very likely that some conservatives who hate Democrats and Liberals are alive today because of the blood donated by Democrats and Liberals.

If you did miss the point, it would be understandable because you are just not looking for something this disgusting.

Was dog whistle for "Jews". So it was odd to see Cruz use it against Trump.
