Hope you and your grandchildren are well.

Seems like there was - - I'll ask him.

We are doing well! Loving every minute of being Nana! My boy is nine months old now! And the oldest will soon be five which just blows me away!

Hope you and yours are doing great too!

April 20, 2015 shows Cruz in third place at 11.3%

Still too early to call for anyone and we know the polls have failed us in the past. Most recently, the polls showing us the awesome leader of Israel was projected to lose, but he didn't. He won by a LARGE margin!

"Large Margin" in the "Land of Cruz"

The final results from Israel's hard-fought election show a resounding victory for Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's right-wing Likud party and place him in the best position to form the next government.

With nearly all the votes counted, Likud earned 29 out of parliament's 120 seats and should be able to build a coalition government with right-wing and religious allies with relative ease.

That's about the percent of the vote Cruz is polling in the Hilary matchup - LOL

We are doing well. Another grandchild due anytime. Love buying toys so I can play with them as well. Once an adult, twice a child, ya know. LOL!

Hope he finds his user name. I'm sure it will be located eventually. I actually thought he had two user names. One with an A and one with an S?

MSNBC Political Reporter: Ted Cruz might do unexpectedly well in New Hampshire

This clip has Heidi, his wife, present making comments as well. The reporter said she was the only candidate's wife present in NH.

Great answer on whether it is time for a woman president. He always stays on message.

And in Breaking News, supporters of Ted Cruz are now depending on MSNBC to accurately track the pulse of Conservative America....

The rest of us just hope they accidentally clip the vocal cords when and if Rachel Maddow ever gets her adam's apple removed.

Real news: Trailing Walker, Bush, and Paul in New Hampshire the "Texas Firebrand" is still struggling to catch up with candidates who are not actually running for anything. That is even funnier than depending on MSNBC to accurately track conservative politics.

He posted as Brother Strange. Unique, huh?

You can't find him in members list because he left and he's listed as a Guest now.

Thanks for trying to remember. He actually found what he was looking for where he posted it on FB.

It was Brother Strange - ha! Pretty obvious, huh?

He's set as a guest so that's why it's not in the members list.

Congrats on the new grandchild! Nothing like it at all!!

Yes, obvious. I thought he had another name besides his real name. I think he left and came back under another name? Anyway, glad he found what he was looking for.

Thanks! Thought the baby would be here Sunday, but she is in bed rest holding on for a few more weeks, hopefully.

Sen. Cruz, Rep. Ryan pen op-ed in Wall Street Journal

HOUSTON, Texas — U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, and Rep. Paul Ryan, R-Wis., penned a joint op-ed in the Wall Street Journal in support of establishing trade-promotion authority to strengthen the bargaining position of the United States. See excerpt below, and the full op-ed may be viewed here.

Putting Congress in Charge on Trade
Wall Street Journal
By Ted Cruz and Paul Ryan

But Congress can’t just take the administration’s word that it will drive a hard bargain. We have to hold it accountable, and that is what trade-promotion authority will help do.

Under TPA, Congress lays out three basic requirements for the administration. First, it must pursue nearly 150 specific negotiating objectives, like beefing up protections for U.S. intellectual property or eliminating kickbacks for government-owned firms. Second, the administration must consult regularly with Congress and meet high transparency standards.

And third, before anything becomes law, Congress gets the final say. The Constitution vests all legislative power in Congress. So TPA makes it clear that Congress—and only Congress—can change U.S. law. If the administration meets all the requirements, Congress will give the agreement an up-or-down vote. But if the administration fails, Congress can hit the brakes, cancel the vote and stop the agreement.
