You see a callous politician who doesn’t give a shit about his constituents. They see a guy who should be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Republicans: Ted Cruz Is a Hero for Flying to Cancún as Texans Freeze to Death
James Wright
Xavier Clark
i agree.. he is a hero and every texan should blow him and lick his balls for 5 or more generations into the future because without him there would be no freezing at all.
Josiah King
He's not a hero, but Beto isn't either. My family did just fine, even with the power having been out for 48 hours. That's what Texas is supposed to be all about - rugged individualism. And a bunch of limp wristed transplants found out that they couldn't handle a couple of utilities being out, and immediately clamored for more government.
The only way I'd vote for Beto is if he was personally pedaling a bike for a generator while my power was out.
Caleb Young
Yippeee kaiyeee! You'all is just like 'dem Texans who came back from the Civil War to nothing and rounded up stray cattle from the mesquite brush and drove them thousands of miles to market. Meanwhile, your claim to fame is yelling up the basement stairs to tell your mommy to "hurry up wit' 'dem dagnabbed tendies, I'm hoooonggggry!"
>Keep rollin', rollin', rollin'
Though the streams are swollen
Keep them dogies rollin', rawhide
Through rain and wind and weather
Hell bent for leather
Wishin' my gal was by my side
All the things I'm missin'
Good vittles, love and kissin'
Are waiting at the end of my ride
Oliver Green
>My family did just fine
translated from typical republican, this meaans "if it didnt happen to me, it never happened".
Kevin Harris
Not my fault if thousands of idiots choose to live in cheaply built apartments and then end up getting shafted because they're not allowed to fix anything themselves or even have a backyard where they can run a grill to cook food, boil water, etc. What the fuck was Cruz going to do about it anyway?
There is this thing called personal responsibility, and that does mean planning ahead for when things don't go well. I did it. Why couldn't they?
Austin Peterson
1. Not everyone has access to the same resources you do
2. Not everyone can live "self-sufficiently" and rely on the government to provide basic infrastructure
3. see Item 1.
Leo Adams
Well they should leave texas then. This is a state for the rough and tumble, the country boys who survive. We do things different down here. Dont like it? Leave it. Maybe tell all the california transplants who flee their shithole to this great state to never come here in the first place
Isaiah Miller
>We do things different down here.
You do things real dumb.
Connor Cooper
Which cow down at the holding pen you fancy tonight, Maverick ol' buddy, Bossy or Bessie? I got my eye on Clarabelle, she lookin' mighty fine!
