Ted Cruz Wants To Bomb ISIS Until 'Sand Glows In The Dark'

Republican presidential candidates are trying to outdo each other on who will murder ISIS the best.

Here's Senator Ted Cruz doing his part to fill the role of the new Marion Morrison, while giving a speech to Cedar Rapids, Iowa on Saturday.

Cruz: We will utterly destroy ISIS. We will carpet bomb them into oblivion. I don’t know if sand can glow in the dark, but we’re going to find out. And we are going to make abundantly clear to any militant on the face of the planet, if you wage jihad against the United States of America and try to murder innocent Americans, you are signing your death warrant.

Somebody please tell the Senator that the United States has dropped so many bombs on ISIS that we're running out.

The U.S. Air Force has fired off more than 20,000 missiles and bombs since the U.S. bombing campaign against ISIS began 15 months ago, according to the Air Force, leading to depleted munitions stockpiles and calls to ramp up funding and weapons production.

As the U.S. ramps up its campaign against the Islamist terror group in Iraq and Syria, the Air Force is now "expending munitions faster than we can replenish them," Air Force chief of staff Gen. Mark Welsh said in a statement.
