Ted Cruz is better than Obama
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz walked out of the memorial service for Nelson Mandela during Cuban President Raul Castro’s speech, according to reports.
“Sen. Cruz very much hopes that Castro learns the lessons of Nelson Mandela,” said a Cruz spokeswoman, as quoted by ABC News. “For decades, Castro has wrongly imprisoned and tortured countless innocents. Just as Mandela was released after 27 years in prison, Castro should finally release his political prisoners. He should hold free elections, and once and for all, set the Cuban people free.”
The Texas senator, who is of Cuban descent, was part of a congressional delegation that traveled to South Africa for the memorial service on Tuesday.
President Barack Obama sparked criticism for shaking hands with Castro as he arrived.

Re: Ted Cruz is better than Obama
Once again, it's all about Ted Cruz, isn't it?
Did he also walk out when the Chinese VP spoke? No human rights violations there, no siree.
He knew in advance who was speaking...drama queen.
As for the hand shake....and also, this is to Cruz and his little performance (really, who in SA even knows who he is, unlike OBama, his stunt was red meat for his followers). You go to someone's "Funeral" of your own free will, you don't stir shit....Obama (like POTUS's before him, GOP and Democrat) shook hands at an event they were both invited to.
Really, it's not that hard.

Ted Cruz has as much chance to be president as the grandmaster of the KKK or the head of the Arayan brotherhood!

It's like we're lurching back to a time when diplomacy was a four-letter word. But yeah, I remember how upset the republican were when Bush was kissing up (literally) to the Saudis. Good times, those.
Re: Ted Cruz is better than Obama
Oh FFS - while attending a ceremony honoring a truly graceful and courageous statesman, our President behaved like a statesman. He behaved with the kind of dignity one should be able to expect from a world leader and head of State.
Castro was in a line of national leaders. It would have been unbecoming and obvious to skip Castro and move on to the others. A handshake doesn't mean "I love you and all is forgotten", it simply means "I am civil".
What the fuck is wrong with you idiots blasting our President for being dignified when a guest in another country?
Have we really become a nation whose only political interest lies in reporting on and responding to natural and often times insignificant gestures or actions? Seriously - a handshake, a raised eyebrow (Michelle), a selfie?
It's fucking ridiculous and I hate you all.

WRONG delusional ChristNUT! No extremist views here. I actually look at the evidence and the evidence shows not a single historical character was a contemporary or even mentioned Jesus existed!

Come on - try to come up with something solid for debate instead of shouting the same thing over and over, without backing up anything you say. Step up to the challenge, because your "proof" has been lies so far, like Tacitus "claiming that Hercules was real". That was a crock, wasn't it, RATTrules? You just made that up. If you "look at the evidence" like you claim, you'd know that what you said was bullshit.

Re: Ted Cruz is better than Obama
Pay attention, fuckwit - YOU stated that Tacitus claimed that Hercules "was a real person". You claimed this repeatedly and loudly, while mocking it over and over and over. However, inconveniently for you, Tacitus never claimed anything of the sort. Tacitus actually claimed that the troops in Germania sang songs about Hercules before going into battle to bolster their spirits. You lied (again). You lie a lot, RATTrules. Shouting about something else to try and change the subject won't work.RATTrules wrote:WRONG dickhead! Neither Tacitus or Josephus were even ALIVE when Jesus allegedly lived!

Go on, crank up both the font size and bullshit some more. Watching you trying to avoid every single direct question while trying to save face is fucking hysterical.
Maybe you can answer this one without wriggling like the little shit you clearly are: you mock Christians, relentlessly, claiming that they are all idiots. How come you are rooting for Obama and Clinton? Both Christians, or hadn't you figured that out yet?
Come on, sparky - try one straight answer in your life. Go for it.

Re: Ted Cruz is better than Obama
No Christian apologist for centuries ever quoted the passage of Tacitus – not in fact, until it had appeared almost word-for-word in the writings of Sulpicius Severus, in the early fifth century, where it is mixed in with other myths. Sulpicius's contemporaries credited him with a skill in the 'antique' hand. He put it to good use and fantasy was his forte: his Life of St. Martin is replete with numerous 'miracles', including raising of the dead and personal appearances by Jesus and Satan.
His dastardly story of Nero was embellished during the Renaissance into a fantastic fable with Nero 'fiddling while Rome burned'. Nero took advantage of the destruction to build his 'Golden House' though no serious scholar believes anymore that he started the fire (we now know Nero was in his hometown of Antium – Anzio – when the blaze started.) Indeed, Nero opened his palace garden for temporary shelter to those made homeless.
In short, the passage in Tacitus is a fraud and adds no evidence for a historic Jesus.

Hollywood's Burning,
You fucking NAIVE RETARDED MORON! I see you are too chicken to respond! Someone as fucking stupid as you who thinks scripture by fools who believed in talking snakes and unicorns is evidence!
1.No one seemed to have noticed Jesus in his time.
2.The Gospels were not written by eyewitnesses. Even gospel writers NEVER saw an earthly Jesus!
3.The gospels are entirely fictional, pure myths.
4.What we now call “Christianity” existed long before Jesus’ time. It was derived from earlier “scripture” and more ancient myths.
5.Paul, writing earlier than the gospels, clearly spoke of a “spiritual” Christ. He knew nothing of a real, live human Jesus.
6.There is no agreement at all concerning this putative historical Jesus’ looks, lineage, biography, character, moral worthiness, or even his central message.
OWNED as always!
