Conservatives, doesn't it bother you that Rafael "Ted" Cruz's father fought for Fidel Castro?

What percent of liberals are gainfully employed? Your name is reality, care to explain how you propose to pay for all the liberal ideas? Just print more, right?

So, a guy who took up arms against a corrupt dictator (Batista) on behalf of a guy who, at the time, portrayed himself solely as anti-Batista and not at all communist (Castro) is to be condemned? Especially when he later opposed Castro when the latter revealed his true colors?

I think Ted Cruz is a bit of a wingnut, but there's nothing his dad did that anyone, liberal or conservative, should find shameful. The guy is an American success story, and given how much he and his family suffered at the hands of the Castro regime, it takes a pretty gutless punk to suggest he was somehow a follower.

he telling everyone that his family had to leave Cuba because of the persecution by Castro. Like most boat people from Cuba they were running away just to get more freedom.

Does it bother you that the Democratic party was all for slavery and the Republicans actually freed them...

So you think that sons should be held liable for the sins of their fathers? How liberal of you.

Off topic: Why do you call republicans "conservatives"? They are purposely trying to rebrand themselves to avoid associating themselves with Bush and failed republican policies, despite being the party that gave Bush a 75% approval rating in his last year in office. They are embarassed by their own party affiliation, hence the "tea party, conservative, libertarian" off shoots. I wouldn't give them the satisfaction of helping them to promote their rebranding effort.

It should bother them that he is probably the best they have to offer for 2016. Cheers!

Do you honestly think that has any relevance?

I'm not going to hold Cruz responsible for what his father did.

not as much as it bothers me that Obama was taught by his dad how to hate and destroy the USA, and apparently Obama was a good listener based on the destruction he is causing today.
