"Liar, liar, pants on fire!" The schoolyard bully that would be
president, Donald Trump, now daily reaches such new lows of sophomoric
language and behavior that even seasoned political watchers who have
"seen it all" are shaking their heads. He's being so childish that it
would have been no surprise had he added the "pants on fire" part to his
tantrum against Ted Cruz Saturday night.
If the stakes weren't so high, it might be amusing to watch the Donald
have his temper tantrums: from the bright red face, to the dagger stares,
to the wagging finger and explosive yelling, I half expected Mr. Trump to
spontaneously combust during the South Carolina debate. In his attempt to
lure Evangelical voters - many of whom are NOT doing their homework - the
Donald became irate with Senator Cruz after Cruz exposed Trump as a
supporter of Planned Parenthood, the now notorious seller of baby body
parts.
Trump, sexist that he is, knows he can't cast Cruz a sexist. Trump, after
proudly slurring minorities as a course of habit, knows he can't call
Cruz (a Latino) a racist. So, the Donald has settled on a sordid slur to
bludgeon the most honest, trusted candidate in the race: Liar.
Conservatives don't fall for the "sexist" or racist" labels. The question
is: Will they fall for the "liar" label?
It's the oldest trick in the political war-game book: call someone a name
equated with disgusting behavior and that becomes the headline. Name-
calling has always been the liberal ace-in-the-hole for seducing the
drive by media and low information voters (to quote the great Rush
Limbaugh). But God help us if conservatives - Christian conservatives -
don't wake up and see the "liar" label as the playground slur that it is.
We've seen this before.
Senator Cruz is running on a sterling record of advocacy and achievement
of conservative principles. He is one of the few in our lifetime who has
done exactly what he said he would do after being elected and sent by the
people to take a seat of power in Washington, DC. From fighting against
the unholy alliance of Rubio/Schumer that attempted to grant blanket
amnesty to millions of people who have broken American laws and, many of
which, are now feeding off the backs of hard-working immigrants and
Americans who play by the rules; to challenging the Washington cartel of
the "Good Ol' Boys Club" that is the Republican Establishment, Senator
Cruz has exhibited both courage and integrity. He fights for truth; he
fights for the Constitution, he fights for freedom.
When Establishment GOP types unite with hot heads like Trump in name-
calling in order to defeat an honest, fearless man like Senator Cruz it
reveals something I wish every Evangelical and conservative would see:
Senator Cruz must really be the Ronald Reagan of the new generation.
Reagan was hated by the liberals and held in disdain by the party power
mongers. But the voters saw through it. The decent men and women who were
desperate for limited government, lower taxes, a strong national defense
and a country based on the rule of law did their homework. They looked at
the principles on which Reagan stood and his record as Governor of
California, and they were able to see through the slurs and the name-
calling. They showed up at the polls in droves and voted with knowledge
and confidence and elected Ronald Reagan in one of the biggest election
landslides of all time. Because they did their homework, because they did
not buy the ugly labels at face value, they ushered in a new American day
and restored our country to its place as "A Shining City on a Hill."
Do your homework. Go behind the name-calling. Look at the records, the
history, and consider the maturity of the candidates. You owe no less to
freedom and future generations than to study before you cast your vote.
When conservatives do their homework and then vote for the tried and
true, Ted Cruz will become not only the GOP nominee, but the President of
the United States. Freedom, opportunity and civil society will see a new
day in America.
We can do this. We must do this. Will you?
