Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) confronted former Nebraska Senator Chuck Hagel with a clip from his 2009 interview with Al Jazeera during today's Defense Secretary confirmation hearing.
The Secretary of Defense nominee can be heard agreeing with a caller's assertion that the United States is the "world's bully."

Cruz is rapidly becoming my new favorite senator....Rubio is disappointing.
Jesse Helms still my all time favorite RIP.
Ted Cruz carved up Hagel like a Thanksgiving turkey..everyday I am loving Cruz more and more he is awesome
Cruz has been a senator for only 28 days and is showing more leadership than those there for decades. And there’s Mike Lee right next to him. We need more like these two!
I still think that the conservatives should be working on a fast cycle OODA offensive plan to run against the 'rats and media.
Cruz is great and Hagel is an idiot. That is to say, Hagel is a liberal.
YES!!
Senator Cruz should be INVITED to join FreeRepublic as he provides "links" with his statements.
I think I will ask him to autograph my voter registration card I used to vote for him both in the primaries and in the runoff election.
Then I will frame it and hang it on the wall.

I REALLY like Cruz! In his few days in the Senate, he has done more to further our cause than the rest of them in years!
By what definition could Hagel be considered a Republican? What single Republican position does Hagel support?
That’s my Senator :)
Mine, too! What a change, right?

Aparently you missed the memo.
A segment of Free Republic has determined that Republicans, no matter how liberal they are, MUST be elected/put in to office.
Because.
And further, Principle does not matter. Winning matters. So as long as we get Chuck in there, any hell he wreaks is OK. Because he’s ‘one of ours’.
Where did he come from ?
At last a Republican with balls!
That just gets Hagel extra points in the Dem world...
Texas, via Sarah Palin and much to the chagrin of Rick Perry and his Hand picked sock puppet Dewhurst.
Texans picked a good one.
Hold Hagel accountable, Senator Cruz. Make Hagel eat his words!
Good for Cruz. I’m glad I got to vote for him.
