Ted Cruz did not want to ban dildos, m'kay?

Heard that on the car radio and almost spit coffee all over my windshield.  No, sorry Trump fans, Cruz didn't want to ban dildos.  He was doing the job he was supposed to do as Solicitor General.

And may I make a point here?  Dildos are commodities, not a right.  Texas was perfectly legal in saying "You can't sell those here".  And people would leave Texas or not, to go to some state that didn't ban the sale.

There are still dry counties all over this country where you can't buy booze, or at least not on certain days.  That's perfectly constitutional as well.

Please, please, please, understand:  The Constitution is a list of things that the government cannot do. And it says quite plainly that if it isn't spelled out in the Constitution, then it's left up to the States or to the People.  So buying dildos is NOT a Constitutional right.  Whether or not you agree with the law is one thing, but it's not even a Constitutional issue.  And by making it a Constitutional issue, you open up Pandora's box.

But anyways, in case someone runs up to you and screams "TED CRUZ WANTS TO BAN DILDOS!" now you can set them straight.  I doubt that Ted Cruz even cares about dildos.
