Think of Ted Cruz’s father Rafael as an older, unwiser version of Ted Cruz. The apple did not fall far from the tree.
Cruz Sr. is no stranger to spouting Bible-laced nonsense into a microphone all in the hopes of Teddy gaining attention.
In the past he’s gone so far as to assert that gay people being called “gay” is actually a conspiracy by liberals to make it more socially acceptable. Because gay means happy! Mind. Blown.
Below, he tells a crowd that, “The devil overplayed his hand,” with the SCOTUS marriage equality decision.
He continued:
“You’ve got to realize that that decision was not about homosexual marriage, that decision was a decision against religious liberty. What was the basis for their decision? It was the 14th Amendment. That means they’re calling homosexuality a civil right. Understand me well, if they’re calling homosexuality a civil right, that means that the next obvious step is a homosexual may come to your church and demand to be hired, whether as pastor or a janitor is immaterial, and if you say, ‘I’m sorry I cannot hire you because it violates my religious faith,’ you’re going to be slapped with a civil rights discrimination lawsuit.”
Like father, like son.
