Trump not being more forcefully against Davis arrest, just wrong.
Cruz not being more forcefully against the SCOTUS ruling, just so unfair.
This is what he said on June 29th...
Ted Cruz offered a straightforward check for what he believes is an overreaching Supreme Court decision on gay marriage. The Texas senator and Republican presidential contender, himself a former Supreme Court clerk, said that states not specifically named in the ruling can ignore it.
"Article III of the Constitution gives the court the authority to resolve cases and controversies. Those cases and controversies, when they're resolved, when you're facing a judicial order, the parties to that suit are bound it," Cruz told NPR's Steve Inskeep on Morning Edition. "Those who are not parties to the suit are not bound by it.
States, Cruz said, "cannot ignore a direct judicial order. The parties to a case cannot ignore a direct judicial order. But it does not mean that those who are not parties to case are bound by a judicial order.
My comment on this is that there is nothing ted said here that is not the facts and totally true. This interview was with NPR, and the video is available, but it clear he resents the decision yet because scotus is constitutionally allowed to do what they did in this dispute, they cannot address this directly in any legislative way except by a non effective resolution or something.
The only way they can get at the nub of the problem is to regulate the judicial branch and that is going to be a very long and arduous task politically.
To fix this, We the People! Are going to be required to reassert our own authority and reclaim the powers we gave to the government!
We cannot sit back and blame one congress critter for this!
This problem disease is much deeper in the body politic and has to be excised not by petition or complaint, but by action!
Agreed. Cruz is my choice but with his banishment from the media and GOPe lexicon, it sure is fun watching Trump driving a D9 through their house of cards.
