Lots of Tea Party people liked
Ted Cruz’s filibuster to oppose Obamacare. Remember when he read Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham?
But more recently, there has
been some unnerving news about Ted Cruz. It’s bad enough that Glenn Beck
seems to have gone off the rails with extreme statements and behavior, but now he is claiming
that Cruz is the anointed priest, the “Fulfillment of Mormon Prophecy.”
Gateway Pundit has the video of
Beck claiming that “This is the Priesthood Rising!”
Earlier reports described Cruz’s
“dominionist” father Rafael Cruz who “indicated that his son was among the
evangelical Christians who are anointed as “kings” to take control of all
sectors of society, an agenda commonly referred to as the “Seven Mountains”
mandate, and “bring the spoils of war to the priests”, thus helping to bring
about a prophesied “great transfer of wealth”, from the “wicked” to righteous
gentile believers. The YouTube video is here (h/t Conservative Treehouse).
Conservative Treehouse (a pro-Trump blogger) discusses the widely held perception that Cruz is a
Washington “outsider,” when in fact that elaborate position masks the fact that he is a classic political “insider” and part of the GOPe (GOP elite) network – and has
been all along.
This blog previously posted why
there are problems with Cruz’s eligibility as a natural born citizen.
This is all scary stuff, even
if Cruz drops out of the race. Gov. Kasich cannot win enough delegates
mathematically, so that leaves two alternative scenarios: [1] Donald Trump goes
into the July convention with enough votes to meet the new rules of 1,237 delegates
(he is presently at 678, Cruz at 423) as well as winning 8 states with a majority
(not plurality) of delegates, or [2] the first vote is inconclusive, and the
GOPe heads for the backroom to engineer the subsequent vote(s).
