WASHINGTON - Sen. Ted Cruz blasted the "mainstream media" Sunday in an interview on Fox News, but proclaimed the day of its "stranglehold on information" is over...

[Bon mots]

[DeoVindiceSicSemperTyrannis]

That’s real class.

You are not allowed to say that without Trump none of this would have happened now that it has happened. You must pretend that Trump had nothing to do with it and that anybody who supports Trump is an idiot.

Those Jedi Mind tricks do not work on me.

Ted aint dead, Thats’ What I said...

[Starstruck]

How so ? .. Trump has been on the right side for a long , long time ... his record is out there .

LOL. Will you be here all week?

[ichabod1]

So much has come out that I didn’t ‘get’ when he was running for Senate. Surprised Dewhurst didn’t get after some of this stuff. Course the loan didn’t happen until after the campaign started.

[JoSixChip]

Cruz will not go after Hillary on Bill's bimbo eruption and her the enabler. Jeez.

The truth is, cruz is just not a leader because he never has been before. The idea of just dropping him into the POTUS with little to no leadership experience is mind boggling to me.

Dewhurst did

[cripplecreek]

Not by a long shot.

In Texas politics, the Bush family runs the show. Ted had the Bush family blessing, and Dewhurst never really stood a chance.

Remember, Ted helped W win the recount, and Heidi worked in the Bush White House. Whenever Ted comes to Sugarland TX to raise funds, he goes to the country club owned by the Bush family to meet with donors. (Just an example from the suburbs of Houston.)

He was the loudest voice on B.O.’S birth certificate ..didn’t see anyone around here complaining about Trump back then ...

[changeitback440]

Thanks to Trump .Cruz rode Trump’s coattails and even copied some of Trump’s positions , but the ride is over . Cruz is not genuine .

this ^^^^^^^^^^^^

Well, I guess the citizenship thing wouldn’t have been so big for the Senate seat. Also he didn’t have these curious gaps in his otherwise sterling conservative credentials at that time. Even more, we didn’t know John Roberts was a turncoat yet. I would still take him over Dewhurst, even if all he did was give McConnell a little bit of heartburn after one upper class lunch.

I still have no idea what Sarah Palin was thinking when she backed the Carnival Barker.

Maybe it’s because she didn’t have enough of a following to make money from her own incoherent brain diarrhea.

(see, I can do that, too!)

[mylife]

WE all told Dewy to go to hell and the media said we were pissing up a rope.

Lather rinse repeat, I packed a lunch i’ll be here a while

[ichabod1]

Makes sense. But would have to think they’d be rather cold right now after what’s happened to poor Jeb.

[Baynative]

"He defended his opponents against an unfair attack"

Remember, too, that when he stood almost alone in the Senate fighting against Obama's immigration policy he was brutalized by the media, yet he didn't let up. He went across the capitol and meth with house members to organize them and defeat the illegal plan.

[Neu Pragmatist]

I will indeed be here all week ... deal with it

[ichabod1]

That’s funny, now we’re in the process of telling some other people to go to hell, and it seems to be Ted’s turn in the barrel.

[ichabod1]

meth!
