Senator Cruz vows to keep misprioritizing discrimination at expense of his party
At a church/state–marrying event in Iowa called "Pastors and Pews," US Senator Ted Cruz (Very Far R–TX) touted his exceedingly and egregiously anti-gay bona fides as a big selling point for his potential 2016 presidential candidacy. The Des Moines Register reports:
Cruz, R-Texas, described the ongoing shift toward legal recognition for gay couples as an "unrelenting assault on traditional marriage," and castigated judges who have struck down prohibitions for "ignoring their oaths, ignoring the Constitution and legislating from the bench."
The issue is one that Cruz said distinguishes him from other potential candidates in what looks to be a crowded 2016 presidential field. While others have de-emphasized or dropped altogether their opposition to same-sex marriage, he said, he would continue to make it a priority.

Ah. What a profile in courage, senator.
No word on what other dead horses Sen. Cruz might make the basis for a 2016 run. But best of luck, Prohibition.
