Truth matters

We are now at the stage of the campaign where The National Enquirer is driving the debate. Their new issue which hits our newstands in Colorado today features five women reputed to have been Ted Cruz's mistresses. I may have to stoop so low as to purchase that rag to see what they have to say, because they have blocked the story in their online website. The left is rejoicing this morning on Twitter.

Why read it? Because the truth matters, no matter where you find it. I want my vote to go to a candidate with solid character. Of course, The Enquirer is noted for one thing: digging up dirt on celebrities. They do it weekly. I remember at least four famous cases where the Enquirer produced damaging evidence against celebrities. One was Democrat candidate John Edwards, who was having an affair while his wife was suffering from cancer. That revelation destroyed his candidacy and political career.

The Enquirer also broke the story about Tiger Woods being unfaithful to his wife.


The other I remember clearly was OJ Simpson. When it was discovered that shoe prints on the scene of the murder of his wife and Ron Goldman were from a rare Italian shoe called Bruno Maglia, OJ said, "I would never wear those ugly ass shoes." The Enquirer then reached into their archives and produced a photo of OJ as a sideline football television reporter walking along in Bruno Maglia shoes.



Remember when Gary Hart was leading in the Democrat primaries, and then The Enquirer showed him with Donna Rice on a yacht named Monkey Business?


I have written here on a fact that I found curious: both The Enquirer and The Globe, the two most prominent supermarket celebrity-destroying tabloids, are rooting for Donald Trump. Trump granted The Enquirer an interview in his gold plated living room, and every week thereafter the Enquirer has produced pro-Trump stories. Is Trump supplying them with gossip rumors to dig up about Cruz? I suspect he is. I want to know the truth: about Cruz, Trump, Hillary, or whomever else becomes a viable candidate.

Ted and Heidi Cruz impressively proclaim their love and devotion to each other often. The Enquirer is calling that devotion into question. I just want to know the truth.
