Q: Sen. Cruz why are you in favor of tearing families apart? A: “It seems President Obama’s political operatives are out in force today.”

Ted Cruz getting questions from the audience, something about his lack of support for immigrant families? #VVS13

Ted Cruz looks less like a politician and more like a preacher at #VVS13. No podium for him, wandering around the stage.

“Unborn child” is quite the applause line at #VVS13.

THANK GOD FOR CRUZ & LEE @toddstarnes: This is getting out of control! But Ted Cruz refuses to back down to Obama’s minions. #VVS13”
