Gawker--National Enquirer has uncovered Ted Cruz's extramarital affairs?

Say it ain't so! According to Gawker, ol' Ted has had five extramarital affairs including one with Katrina the Bullet Lady Herself...

“Private detectives are digging into at least five affairs Ted Cruz supposedly had,” claimed a Washington insider.

“The leaked details are an attempt to destroy what’s left of his White House campaign!”

The ENQUIRER reports that Cruz’s claimed mistresses include a foxy political consultant and a high-placed D.C. attorney!

The buzz focuses on Cruz and Tea Party activist Katrina Pierson. Pierson is a former consultant for Cruz’s United States Senate campaign and is now the national spokeswoman for businessman Donald Trump’s presidential campaign, which makes this a particularly uncomfortable situation.

FDR had affairs, too. So did MLK.

I know there is more hypocrisy with cruz because of his theocracy goals. But, I still am against bringing down politicians for this and not for reasons that affect the entire nation.

The character and integrity of a president matters at least as much as what they say their policy positions are.

Republicans love ramming their right wing Jesus down our throats while they get so much side action it makes Democrats look like St. Francis.

They're hypocrites who deserve to be whacked over the head with this. Republicans talk the Jesus talk but they all walk the Ayn Rand walk!

I doubt anyone will care if Cruz is the target of the same type of attacks that he has been responsible for.

Second - FDR, JFK, Bill Clinton. IN the White House. Clinton - BEFORE the White House, too.
I would imagine not many want to go there.
