Cruz: Mandela Will Live In History for Defenders of Liberty

WASHINGTON, DC -- U.S. Sen. Cruz, R-Texas, reacted today to news of former South African President Nelson Mandela's passing:

"Nelson Mandela will live in history as an inspiration for defenders of liberty around the globe. He stood firm for decades on the principle that until all South Africans enjoyed equal liberties he would not leave prison himself, declaring in his autobiography, 'Freedom is indivisible; the chains on any one of my people were the chains on all of them, the chains on all of my people were the chains on me.' Because of his epic fight against injustice, an entire nation is now free.

"We mourn his loss and offer our condolences to his family and the people of South Africa."

From one freedom champion to another, this is inspiring.

Speech Cruzer gave at CUFI rally in support of Palestinian Freedom Fighters brought the evangelical crowd to their feet.. and hands.

I heard President Obama didn't order flags at half when Margaret Thatcher died. But when Nelson Mandela, the famous communist, died, President Obama ordered flags at half for 10 days. Personally, I don't praise communists when they die. I don't praise Hugo Rafael Chávez. I don't praise Mao Tse-Tung. I don't praise Nelson Mandela. That's my style. If Ted Cruz likes communists or will just say anything to become President, that's up to him.

Obama has a love for Communists.

Bayard Rustin (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayard_Rustin) was an American leader in social movements for civil rights, socialism, pacifism and non-violence, and gay rights. He was born and raised in Pennsylvania where his family was involved in civil rights work. In 1936, he moved to Harlem, New York City and earned a living as a nightclub and stage singer, and continued activism for civil rights.
...

Rustin became an honorary chairperson of the Socialist Party of America in 1972, before it changed its name to Social Democrats, USA (SDUSA); Rustin acted as national chairman of SDUSA during the 1970s. During the 1970s and 1980s, Rustin served on many humanitarian missions, such as aiding refugees from Communist Vietnam and Cambodia. He was on a humanitarian mission in Haiti when he died in 1987.
...

On November 20, 2013, President Barack Obama posthumously awarded Rustin the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

To be fair, younger Cruz (Rafael Cruz Jr) does not come across as a hardcore commie though.. at least not in public appearances and based on what he openly says.
