[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mostly I think Cruz is an idiot because I'm sure he would not have handled his speech this way if he had had a clue as to what is going on with Arab Christians.[/quote]

Oh, I don't think he is an idiot. I am not a Cruz supporter by any means but I think he is far from being an idiot.

He may have alienated a few Arab Christians [b]who may well never have voted for a Republican [/b]but he does solidify his credentials with evangelicals as well as Jews quite apart from those the Republicans who think that Israel can do no wrong.[/quote]

I feel like Jeff posted this just for me, to fill me with glee.  Thanks Jeff!  As a liberal Arab Christian, these types of stories are just a delight.  You cannot get more conservative than this group.  Never mind gay marriage, they wouldn't mind if it were illegal for heterosexual couples to live together before marriage.  They'll eat up any bs about poor people not paying enough taxes or being spoiled because they have cell phones and tvs.  I mean, Ted Cruz could have absolutely just talked about any other topic, including any domestic issue, and they would have eaten it up.  Instead, he went in with no prior knowledge, or having done any research, about who he was talking to.  This was definitely a failure on his part, because he could have at least talked about his support for Israel in a more diplomatic way.  Even with everything happening, Arab Christians do still have solidarity with other Arabs, if only because we have so much else in common other than religion.[/quote]
