Ted Cruz’s dad rails against ‘pro-murder’ progressives: Christians need to take America back!

The father of Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (R) went on an anti-progressive tirade last week after being asked about the issue of abortion, and called for preachers to take the “Christian nation” of America back from secular humanists.

“The blood of 57 million babies is crying out to God,” Rafael Cruz said during an interview with bishop E.W. Jackson. “Just like the blood of Abel cried out to God. But you know, what we need to do is turn the tables on the progressives.”

Progressives use phrases like the “war on women,” Cruz continued, but “the real war on women” is the abortion of millions of female fetuses.

“Fifty-seven million women are walking around with the emotional scars of abortion, that only Jesus can heal. That’s the real war on women, we need to turn it on them. When they talk to you about the ‘right to choose’ who chooses for that baby? We cannot acquiesce to their rhetoric.”

then what does that make them for constantly beating war drums, supporting the death penalty, and blocking the path to universal health care?
