To recommend someone and to actually vote in a conformation, is really pushing the lie. Cruz had nothing to do with Roberts becoming a Justice. As I said, Freepers loved Roberts for all of the times he did stop the leftist’s ideas. But your tactics is what is done by the left.

I think there was nothing wrong with Cruz having recommended him. It was said at the time that he was a stealth candidate because so little was known about his conservative /liberal beliefs.

It becomes an issue because Cruz has been repeatedly stating that he is the only candidate in the 2016 election that can be trusted to make conservative supreme court nominations. One of Ted’s problems is that he gets folk’s backs up, which is what he has done in this case. He certainly could have talked about all the things he would look for in a judicial pick and looked very creditable, but he wanted to attack Trump, and in doing so, he succeeded only in making himself look foolish.

I never said Ted voted for Roberts.

He did support him and bring him into the Bush “family” though.

Did you read the link I posted with Ted’s oped pushing Roberts?

I think it is reasonable to question Ted’s judgement on someone he knew and worked with.

Freepers only knew what others, including Ted, said about Roberts. None of of knew and worked with him.
