Let me start
this off by saying, like most of the people on the left, I believe that Ted
Cruz is a U.S. citizen. I have not heard anyone on the left speaking out in opposition
to the legitimacy of his citizenship. The few people that I have heard say
anything about it are saying the same type of things like I am about to say.
Where is the OUTRAGE from those on the right?
When
President Obama was first elected, the Tea Party Republicans were almost
foaming at the mouth about his birth certificate. They were saying “He was not
born in this country, he was born in Kenya.” They said he was not a citizen
because he was not born in this country. They argued that even though his
mother was a citizen he was not because he was not born here. They demanded to
see President Obama’s birth certificate because it would PROVE that he was not
born here. Once the President posted his birth certificate online they said
that wasn’t the right form. They wanted to see the long form version not the
short one. After he posted the long form version they then said it was a fake.
Fox (NOT) News even had experts on showing how the documents could have been
forged. There were so many of them and they were so loud that they were given a
nick name, The Birthers.
It is funny
how things come back to bite you in the ass. The Birthers would pretend to be
upset when anyone said that the REAL reason they were against President Obama
was because of his race. They would accuse the left of race baiting. Now they
have one of their own gearing up to run for President in 2016, Senator Ted Cruz.
Senator Cruz is an outspoken Tea Party favorite who was born in Calgary,
Canada. He also produced his short form birth certificate but there was no
OUTRAGE. Like President Obama Senator Cruz’s father was foreign born. Unlike
President Obama, Senator Cruz really WAS born in another country as stated on
his short form birth certificate.
If it was
not about race then where is the OUTRAGE from the Birthers. The number 1
problem they pretended to have with President Obama was that he was not born in
America (even though he really was). Senator Cruz is unable to pass the bar the
Tea Party set for President Obama but they support him anyway. If it was not
about race then why not hold Senator Cruz to the same standard they held
President Obama to. I’ll give you one guess. They kept saying they were not
racist but the rest of America knew the truth. If it was not about race then
what was it about? They don’t want to be called racist but they act like
racist. If it was not about race then why was the guy born in America (Hawaii) considered
foreign and the guy born in another country (Canada) considered American.
Where is the
OUTRAGE from the Tea Party and the Birthers? You don’t hear it because Senator
Cruz looks like them. It was never about anything other than race. I know
people that tried to defend the Tea Party and Birthers, saying that it wasn’t
about race and that Obama should just show his birth certificate and school
records and get it over with. I wrote a blog post called “Obama’s Papers” where
I said he should not show anything. I’m not going to put anyone one the spot
but I wonder if those people that defended the Birthers before still think it
was not about race. I wonder if they still think the Birthers are not racist.
They should just fly the confederate flag and be proud of who they are. Stop
trying to hiding who you are. We can clearly see you.
