From wiki...

Teddy Bare in private practice...

...While at Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, Cruz represented Pfizer in a lawsuit brought by a group of public hospitals and community health centers who accused the drug manufacturer of overcharging. The Supreme Court eventually threw the case out.[72] Shandong Linglong Rubber Company was found guilty of marketing versions of tires that were based on blueprints stolen by a former employee of a Florida businessman and ordered to pay $26 million to the Floridian. Cruz worked on the Chinese company’s appellant brief. The appeals court denied the appeal and affirmed the jury’s award.[73] Cruz represented drug manufacturer B. Braun Medical Inc. in front of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit after the company was found guilty of wrongfully discharging a former employee. Cruz asserted that she had failed to prove that B. Braun had directed her to violate the law and that she had not presented sufficient evidence that her refusal to violate the law was why she had been fired. The appeals court rejected Cruz’s argument and affirmed the $880,000 award.[73] Cruz represented Toyota in an appeal to the Texas Supreme Court in an statute of limitations case, where a judge wanted to investigate Toyota for contempt after a former Toyota in-house lawyer accused Toyota of unlawfully withholding documents in a product liability case.[74] Cruz unsuccessfully argued the judge’s jurisdiction expired thirty days after the case was dismissed following an out-of-court settlement ...

I don’t see how me posting pictures of them taken in a campaign event setting is “bringing in the kids” when they’re the ones putting them on display, but I respect both of you enough to respectfully disagree.

They don’t want Cruz to win, either. As a matter of fact, they hate Cuz more than Trump because Cruz will use the law against them, not just his mouth.

Yikes. Not sure what other cases are out there, but these didn’t reflect well on him did they.

Thank you.

I was playing off your comment about bringing family members in.

If my wording was too critical, I apologize. I wasn’t intending to give you grief over it.

I wonder what kind of people can so blindly follow someone with such a poor actual record. He stands on the floor of the Senate and recites Doctor Seuss and is branded as a "courageous conservative". He represented the State of Texas in court and presented the Texas viewpoint as he should. He had a large staff to assist him there.

But, it is watching him on the campaign trail that has truly appalled me. He does not reveal a Christian attitude and then yokes himself to nutty Glenn Beck. Then, Romney endorses Katich, and then endorses Cruz a week later and Crus is good with that.

I am praying for America. America needs Donald Trump to become President. In my humble opinion, he has the skills and the good sense needed to bring us back from the brink of destruction where we are now. Obama has done everything to "transform" America into a racist cesspool. Trump will bring everybody together, I trust.

Vote Trump!

You’re saying it better than I generally do, with regard to Cruz.

I agree with your thoughts. I also agree that we need a guy that has proven he knows what he’s doing in the business sector.

I think he’ll do a lot of good for the nation.

Lord knows he’s got very fertile ground.

Without belaboring the point of whether I was right or wrong in posting the pictures, now that they’re the point of discussion, I’d like to add that the Cruz campaign is courting disaster by keeping these kids exposed to the public eye.

I had kids myself and I know that they get cranky and don’t always want to cooperate but in my opinion there’s a problem between Ted and his daughter. I could be forgiving for the time when she didn’t want to kiss him and could write that off to being tired and cranky, but on the other occasion when she’s making the bunny ears behind him shows me that she doesn’t have any respect for how he appears in a public setting. I would be horrified if one of my kids had ever behaved that way in public and she’s done it more than once.

Given the horrid political skills he’s shown these past few weeks, I can only imagine that the reason we haven’t seen worse is because that person never got elected.

He’s certainly not giving me the impression that he’s got a loving family so he ought to do himself a favor and stop using them to show he’s a good family man.

I can’t argue with that.

It doesn’t look good.
