    This “end timer” Cruz doesn’t think there will be any”Jews” left on this Earth after the Rapture…they will have been “converted or killed”…Now THAT is Chutzpah….

    Chutzpah is a Hebrew word meaning audacious and is not, has never been a “New York term”. Perhaps Ted Cruz should refrain from making stupid remarks in an effort to keep him from being thought of as a fool.

    Having read all of that, I think we can still just conclude that this POS is a racist and insulting my state. BTW, I’ve lived my entire life here and have not really had an occasion to use the word, but did repeat it a number of times and was LMAO at Michelle Bachmann’s pronunciation of it a few years ago.

      OK, Cruz will always be an ahole but having lived in NYC for a bit and traveled the rest of this country, I kinda agree that chutzpah is a NYC area saying…being Jewish hardly matters.

        I live in WNY. I never hear it. I am sure the concentration of Jewish folks in NY City has something to do with it. We, generally speaking, have a much higher percentage of Irish (me), Polish, Italian, French and so on than Jewish folks living around here.
        Choot spa we will never forget!

        I live in Connecticut and we say it here, maybe it is a northeast thing.

    I will not get any Jewish votes, Sam I Am,
    I will not get any Jewish votes in the rain,
    I will not get any Jewish votes on a train,
    I will not get any Jewish votes in a car,
    I will not get any Jewish votes in a bar….

    Teddy has a lot of chutzpah to insist that he isn’t a bigot.
