TED CRUZ HAS STRUGGLED SO FAR IN THE TWO REPUBLICAN PRIMARY DEBATES
TO MAKE MUCH OF AN IMPRESSION, BUT SPEAKING AT THE VALUE VOTERS
SUMMIT HE MIGHT FIND HIMSELF A
MUCH FRIENDLIER TERRITORY.
HERE HE IS TRYING TO APPEAL TO THE RELIGIOUS, CHANNELING JESUS
BY PROMISING TO EFFECTIVELY KILL EVERYONE WHO DISAGREES WITH HIM.
>> I HAVE GOT TO ASK, WHAT ARE THESE THINGS?
IS BARACK OBAMA
COMING?
AND WE WILL PROTECT OUR SERVICE MEN AND WOMEN'S
CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHT TO KEEP AND
BEAR ARMS AND PROTECT THEMSELVES?
THAT MEANS THE NEXT
TIME A JIHADIST WALKS INTO A RECRUITING CENTER IN
CHATTANOOGA, TENNESSEE, HE IS
GOING TO ENCOUNTER THE BUSINESS END OF FIREARMS WIELDED BY A
DOZEN MARINES.
WEíLL TAKE ON THE EPA, AND THE CFPB, AND THE
ALPHABET SOUP OF THE GOVERNMENT AGENCIES THAT STRANGLE SMALL
BUSINESSES, AND WE WILL UNLEASH BOOMING ECONOMIC GROWTH.
I WILL
GO TO CONGRESS AND WE WILL PASS FUNDAMENTAL TAX REFORM.
WE WILL
PASS A SIMPLE FLAT TAX.
AND WHEN WE DO THAT, WE SHOULD
ABOLISH THE IRS.
I WILL INSTRUCT THE FEDERAL DEPARTMENT
OF EDUCATION, WHICH SHOULD BE
ABOLISHED, I WILL INSTRUCT THE FEDERAL DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
THAT COMMON CORE ENDS TODAY.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL IRAN BE ABLE TO ACQUIRE NUCLEAR
WEAPONS, AND IF THE AYATOLLAH
DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT, WE MAY HAVE TO HELP INTRODUCE HIM TO
SEVENTY-TWO VIRGINS.
>> I WILL HAVE A
FLAT TAX ñ JEB BUSH'S TAX POLICY, WHICH
IS WORSE THAN HIS BROTHERS, IS PROGRESSIVE COMPARED TO THE REST.
A FLAT TAX, WOULD BANKRUPT US.
>> OR DONALD TRUMPíS, WHICH ENDS UP TAXING LESS THAN THE
FLAT TAX SYSTEM.
I THINK OUR MEDICAL SYSTEM SHOULD ALSO BE BASED ON THE
BIBLE.
>> IT IS THE RIGHT WING THAT PLAYS ORWELLIAN GAMES WITH THE
NAMES OF ORGANIZATIONS.
FAMILY
VALUES, WHICH MEANS WE HATE YOUR FAMILY.
THE GOVERNMENT TENDS,
OR HASN'T DONE THAT NEARLY AS MUCH.
THEY TENDED TO JUST NAME
THINGS WHAT THEY ARE.
EPA, WEíLL TAKE ON THE EPA.
ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION AGENCY, THEY PROTECT
THE ENVIRONMENT.
THE CPSB IS THE CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY
BOARD.
WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
WHAT YOU ARE SAYING IS I WILL
GIVE CORPORATE AMERICA CARTE BLANCHE, AND I WILL TAKE TWO
AGENCIES WHICH REGULATE THEM AND MAKE SURE THAT THEY DON'T HARM
YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AND I WILL CRUSH THEM!
AND THEY ARE LIKE,
YAY!
YOU COULDN'T FIND TWO ORGANIZATIONS WHOSE SOLE
DETERMINATION IS TO PROTECT AND SERVE US.
>> THAT'S WHY HE SAYS THE LETTERS.
>> THAT'S RIGHT.
>> IT WAS AN INTERESTING TED CRUZ.
WE WERE MOCKING HIM AT
THE LAST DEBATE, EVERY ANSWER HE WOULD SAY, I PROMISE YOU.
NOW
HE WAS MOVING AROUND, HE IS GOING TO TAKE ON THE EPA AND THE
IRS, AND MICK FOLEY AT SUMMERSLAM.
>> DID HE SAY THE CPSB?
>> AMONG OTHERS.
HE IS AGAINST COMMON CORE.
I HAVE HEARD THAT
COMMON CORE MATH ACTUALLY PREPARES KIDS MUCH MORE TO
ORGANICALLY APPROACH HIGHER MATHEMATICS, AND MAYBE AS A
RESULT OF THE PREVIOUS GENERATIONS NOT BEING RAISED
UNDER COMMON CORE, IT ALLOWS YOU TO SO POORLY CRUNCH THE NUMBERS
THAT YOU CAN SUPPORT A FLAT TAX.
THAT MIGHT ACTUALLY BE IT.
