Crud

  Ted Cruz is an intelligent person, highly intelligent especially in relation to other GOPers. His political offense is based on a divide and conquer policy. His approach is to literally throw gasoline onto the fire in the hope that the ashes somehow blow towards his constituency and in that process sow more seeds of confusion which leads to more dividing and conquering. We are becoming familiar with a commonly used Cruz tactic which is to simply accuse his opponent of the very thing that Cruz is intentionally doing. Here Cruz blames Obama for inflaming racial tensions knowing full well that this same Cruz statement inflames racial tensions. It's both a curious and miserable thing to witness someone like Cruz who has left any sense of conscience or consequences far behind, and what is particularly scary is that he may never have had either.
