[nadinbrzezinski]

7. National Enquirer

Ted Cruz issues with lovers.

[Kittycat]

38. Gotcha. I saw NE, assumed Northeast

Thanks.

[riversedge]

8. I assume National Enquire

[WhiteTara]

2. Okay, what does NE stand for?

Inquiring minds and all that.

[nadinbrzezinski]

[Kittycat]

39. I don't follow CNN, but caught all this last night on Twitter.

Here's my summary of what's about to go down...

@tedcruz Stars in TV movie on life of #JimmySwaggart "I Have Sinned: A Story of Love Sex & #busTED" #cruzsexscandel

[Kingofalldems]

5. National Enquirer

[WhiteTara]

10. Thanks and glad to see it has legs and will

haunt Ted.

[malaise]

12. As I wrote elsewhere

Cruz didn't give a damn about lying re Carson dropping out so I don't give a damn if this is true or false. Fugg all of them. They are all lying RW scumbags

[WhiteTara]

18. He may not care, but I'll bet voters will

and will tell their neighbors and friends and it will circulate for some time, hopefully damaging him all the while.

[oberliner]

25. He has two young daughters

If this whole story turns out to be false then that is absolutely not cool.

[Jim Beard]

48. Bill Clinton had a daughter too

[FLPanhandle]

3. This has been a great day

Rarely does the republican circle firing squad provide so much entertainment.

[malaise]

9. The only word to describe it

delish - these people shouldn't lead insects

[MANative]

6. I'm guessing you're referring to the National Enquirer article? n/t

[malaise]

23. Good guess

[oldandhappy]

11. trash journalism on the news!

forget refugees, economic inequality, president on the road, voter problems.

keep a watch out for bunnies everyone!

[malaise]

15. Cruz made this possible

by responding and blaming Trump.

That said you're correct - it is a sad day but this is freaking hilarious- they cannot sink lower.

[oldandhappy]

26. agree

I figure Cruz started this latest rumble with his post of Trump's wife. Hard to imagine either one of them delivering a sane state of the union.

[RKP5637]

28. Yep, it all started from Cruz and/or his henchmen, and now he blames Trump. These guys are

wackos at their best! We must look like F'en fools to the world with idiots like this rising to the top for nomination by the R's.

[malaise]

32. Yep but notice that the media begin the story with Trump's sideby side pics of

the wives - they have ignored the truth that Cruz first posted the naked pic.

They are worse than frat boys

[RKP5637]

37. Yep, they really are, and this is for the presidency of the US. What a

pack of F'en fools.

[Kaleva]

42. It was a PAC, and not Cruz's campaign, that ran the pic of Trump's wife

Trump mistakenly thought it was Cruz and he, in retaliation, threatened to spill the beans on Cruz's wife.

Trump shouldn't have responded an this would probably have died but in responding the way he did, the Repubs look like cast members of very bad and poorly budgeted reality tv show.

[malaise]

43. Thanks

I'd be lying if I didn't say this is delish!! Let them self destruct.

[Kaleva]

44. I really hope that a majority of voters now realize neither of them is fit to sit in the Oval Office

[malaise]

46. Neither is fit to lead fleas

[BillZBubb]

51. No, it was cruz, he just covered his tracks better on his slime this time.

[anamnua]

13. I wonder if the old LBJ 'let the bastard deny it' trick is being used. nt.

[malaise]

17. Looks that way

They all make up stuff - this time they're doing it to their own

[spanone]

14. the entertainment value is stunning!!!

[malaise]

20. Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Hahahahahahhaha

[Lint Head]

16. I've been laughing about it all day. It really has been a

Good Friday!

[malaise]

21. DUzy literally

[Warpy]

19. IOKIYAR

Besides, the poor man needed an outlet while his weakling of a wife refused to pray harder and snap out of her so called depression.

It's all her fault, you know.

And for the humor and/or reading impaired,

[malaise]

22. Ha

[TexasMommaWithAHat]

24. Cruz Missile Crisis works for me.

[oldandhappy]

27. smile

[RKP5637]

29. Wow, good one!!!

[malaise]

35. Hahahahaha

I stole this version from the Twitter folks who brought it to DU

[napkinz]

36. someone came up with this ...

[jonno99]

30. Between our side & theirs, I don't know which is slinging (or dredging up) the most mud.

This whole campaign season is like watching a slow motion train wreck - of both parties. You know you should look away, but in many ways the chaos is a thing of beauty - and turning away is just.not.possible...

[Kingofalldems]

34. Both parties? Democrats have been quite civil

and have debated issues.

[malaise]

41. You cannot be serious to compare the Democratic Party with this desgusting juvenile desplay

of vulgarity and bad taste ReTHUG candidates.

[enid602]

31. cruz

Who would have thought that someone who eats his own boogers during a presidential debate would be such a babe magnet?

[malaise]

40. You win the thread

[TexasMommaWithAHat]

45. Gross. I just ate!

[Kaleva]

47. He's a hunka-hunka-booger eating man! Women swoon in his presence.

[malaise]

49. Tweety is tearing them all a new one

and he included Rubio and the small fingers ' you know what I mean'.

He says refs must call no more.

Here comes Chris Hayes - the incredible new depth of the GOP

[Jnclr89]

50. The National Enquirer Broke the Tiger Woods Affair

I always thought the NE was for crap, and I remember when they broke the Tiger Woods affair story. I though BS it's the NE. Plus I was a huge TW fan.

Seems I was wrong. Since then, they've been pretty accurate on these type of stories.

[snagglepuss]

52. I forgot about TW. Remember how long before anyone believed it?

The John Edwards story was also a real shocker. I wonder if they have ever got one of these kinds of stories wrong?
