As Ted Cruz vowed to investigate and prosecute Planned Parenthood while speaking at the Iowa State Fair today, a silent protest that was visible throughout Cruz’s speech reminded Republicans that payback is coming on Election Day 2016.

A sign was visible over Cruz’s shoulder during his entire speech that said, “1950 called. They want their workplace policies back.”

Here is an edited clip featuring the sign from USA TODAY:

Cruz joked that Hillary Clinton was a “wild-eyed socialist who has policies that are dangerous for America and the world.” The woman that visible holding up the sign that protested Republican positions that reinforce gender inequality in the workplace, along with millions of other men and women would strongly disagree...................

1. Kick and Hell yes recommend!

One woman who was holding one sign sent a powerful message. Women who believe in gender equality are always there. They are watching, and on November 8, 2016, those women and men who are fighting for progress will be voting.

Cruz sucks!

Kick. Kick. Kick!

Our rights! Women's rights!

Thank you riversedge!

3. Iowa rocks!

4. I don't know who was holding that sign...

,,but I LOVE her!

[chknltl]

5. KnR

To these brave women of Iowa

[LiberalElite]

6. Hillarys a wild eyed socialist?

Then what's Sanders? a little red book waving Maoist?

[Hekate]

7. That "Commie" tag will come to Bernie as soon as Hillary is destroyed by them....

Anyone in the Bernie camp who truly believes he is immune from the dreadful lies and slurs of the GOP has simply not been involved in politics very long. It really does not make me happy to say that -- I like Senator Sanders.

[LiberalElite]

13. He's getting lies and slurs aimed at him right now eom

[Nevernose]

17. Democrats could nominate Jesus

And Republicans would call him a hippy, a coward, a commie, and a Middle Eastern terrorist.

[MiniMe]

8. I always learned in school that if you weren't born in this country, you can't be President

Yes, I am a birther on this issue. If Obama had been born in another country (other than the US) I would feel the same way.

[awoke_in_2003]

15. Don't forget US properties...

McCain was born on a US military base, which made him eligible (although a frightening thought)

[MiniMe]

16. True, but Canada isw not a US property

[awoke_in_2003]

19. I know...

I just wanted to expand on what you said. I don't see how the Cruz thing is flying.

[MiniMe]

20. IOKIYAR

[Nevernose]

18. My wife was born in a Japanese hospital

Even her birth certificate is entirely in Japanese. Both of her parents were active duty US Army, which is why they were in Japan. Should SHE be disqualified?

(Ted Cruz should be disqualified because he's a crazy asshole, IMO, although I'm unsure of his birth circumstances)

9. What's so bad about "socialism"?

I would make them eat that word if I was a Dem candidate.
To Republicans, Democracy = Socialism.

10. This part at the link says it all for me:

Ted Cruz threw the word liberty around a lot during his speech, but it is clear that when he speaks about liberty he doesn’t mean freedom for all. Cruz like the rest of his Republican colleagues is most concerned about liberty for millionaires and corporations.

The Republican definition of liberty remains straight out of the show Mad Men. Rich white males have all the liberty, and the rest of the country is a blind spot to be ignored.

The whole GOP is Ron Paul:

11. K&R

[Gothmog]

12. Carnival Cruz is having issues

[central scrutinizer]

14. Hey, leave 1950 alone!

I was born in 1950!
