Blah, blah, blah. People who were in the fight I trust.
I trust words from the Horse’s mouth itself. Seeing is believing.
Believe what you see with your own eyes and hear from your own ears, not some article written by a journolist.
Bookmark for later. Thanks for posting it.
Between the two, this issue is a wash.
Credit to Isara, thanks.
Trump/Santorum 2016!
Both strong on illegals, both born in America of 2 US citizens.
Got it. Cruz with good record evil. Trump with no conservative record or intimate knowledge of conservatism and the constitution... the second coming.
Now I understand the source of your hatred.
Um, that’s SENATOR Sweater-vest to you! Show some respect son!
*snicker*
I was there. Sessions also said that Cruz was so wound up some of the others actually began to wonder if Ted was anti-hispanic.
Horowitz has been dissembling on this topic from the beginning, refusing to accurately depict Rubio/Santorum’s argument for what it was: not an accusation that Cruz “implicitly” supported legalization (which he then confuses even before with Cruz’s definition of amnesty), but an explicit accusation that Cruz supported legal status for illegals, albeit after the border was secured.
As for Sessions, not even Sessions was talking deportation during the Gang of Eight fight (nor was anybody else on the right), nor is it true when Sessions says that Cruz was with him “every step of the way.” Cruz opposed Sessions on H1Bs, voting down his amendment that would have limited legal immigration, and then responding with his own amendment to expand H1Bs by 500% for the stated purpose that the bill would more likely “pass the House.”
These videos/interviews/articles all miss the primary point: That legal status for illegals after border security was the mainstream position of GOP conservatives, even Rush Limbaugh, during the fight.
This certainly doesn’t make them RINOs, just not leaders capable of shifting the window of discourse where it needed to be.
This is what happens to supporters of an unctuous, arrogant, bombastic man whose appeal rests solely on his ability to cater to the baser emotions of the simple-minded masses.
Combination of Elmer Gantry (without the booze), Huey Long (without the sweat and southern accent), and George Wallace (without the wheelchair).
