Ted Cruz embraces apocalyptic preachers and anti-gay militants

One prominent end times-believing preacher who is active in the Cruz campaign is Rafael Bienvenido Cruz, who just happens to be the candidate’s father. The Rev. Cruz subscribes to Dominionist theology, a school of thought that says Genesis gives true men of faith the right to seize control of government and run the country by biblical mandates.

Is that vision shared by the younger Cruz?...

GOP Insanity Is No Laughing Matter

The last few months have been a huge gift to comedians and late night talk show hosts, as Republicans are giving them more to talk about than ever before. But beyond the humor is a real threat - one of these candidates could very likely become our next president, and that's nothing to laugh about.

Ted Cruz Finds Someone Dumber Than Himself To Deny Climate Change

This past Tuesday, conservative pundit Mark Steyn was, for some reason, invited by Ted Cruz to testify on climate change at a Senate subcommittee hearing. And, as expected, what came out of Steyn’s mouth was just as ridiculous as anything Cruz could have spewed himself.

Atheist demands court martial for Christian Air Force general

..."Simply put, there IS no more profound clear and present danger to our American way of life than mixing this rabid theology of 'Weaponized Jesus' with the vast weapons of our American military's arsenal," Weinstein claimed...
http://www.christianexaminer.com/article/atheist.demands.court.martial.for.christian.air.force.general/48952.htm

Here is the video he is talking about:
Air Force Major General Craig Olson speaking in uniform at Shirley Dobson's May 7, 2015 National Day of Prayer Task Force event on Capitol Hill, in violation of a slew of military regulations. Members of the military are strictly prohibited from endorsing any "non-federal entity," religious or non-religious, by doing things like speaking in uniform at their events. So this isn't just about the obvious issue of Olson violating the regulations regarding participation in religious events and the promotion of his personal religious beliefs; he's blatantly disregarding a whole bunch of regulations. But the biggest danger of his very public Jesus speech is that it was streamed around the world by GOD TV, handing our enemies like ISIS some great material for recruiting propaganda on a silver platter.
