Nathan’s a piece of work, Vet. He doesn’t think Cruz is smart.
He could have said that in one sentence. He writes like he’s getting paid by the word.
It looks as if Yale grads are envious of Harvard grads!
Which I'm sure he is. What college student already thinks he knows so much that he must write a book? I have a bad feeling we're going to be hearing his name in the future. I wonder if he's part Native American? LOL
Just another young leftist diatribe.
Did Nathan just admit he has ED?
It did sound like he may have decided to bail on law and was thinking of using his degree as a ticket to Weinerville.
Yeah, he could be a Weiner or Wasserman. He’s shrill, verbose, into tautology and ideology, says all the right things (’goodthinkful’), brimming with lefty cant, win at any price zeal, but not in a courtroom apparently.
I’ve never understood why so many, usually Democrats for some reason, get these high dollar Ivy league educations, then they go into politics where you’re qualified when you learn to count.
George Orwell described the perfect Oceana party member in his 1984 book: short, fat, beetle-browed men who scurried about like bugs, always squirming.
He’ll do well in politics.
Nathan looks like he’s about 20 and finally managed to get a girl down to her panties last night before she sobered up and ran away.
The dork is strong in that one!
His first hooker took his money after kicking his ass, and it was his cousin, the family tranny.
Of course, a chorus of people from Cruzs student years has vouched for his brilliance. No less a heavyweight than Alan Dershowitz has commented on Cruzs precocity at Harvard. Now, one could somewhat unkindly argue that Dershowitz, too, has in his career relied on peoples confusion of credentials and bluster for depth of intellect. More to the point, though, is that the evidence put forth doesnt support the claim. Nobody doubts that Cruz has the gift of gab, and can be formidable in an argument. But sophistry is not philosophy, and being the loudest, most driven, and most shameless guy in the room does not necessarily make one the brightest. <<
A nationally renowned legal scholar says Cruz was precocious at Harvard...then the “author” forgot to illustrate why this was untrue. Indeed he gives that Cruz has the gift of gab, and is formidable in an argument. Two very large elements in anyone’s assessment of IQ...except the “author”. The author must have missed the class on logical fallacies, as most of “writing” is not to any journalistic standard I am aware of...oh, it is a Salon Story, can you still get 10,000 shares for a buck?

“and yet Ted Cruz does not in his life ever seem to have taken on board a single challenge to his worldview”
With this comment Nathan Robinson loses all credibility, as well as any chance of appearing to have an intelligence worth mentioning.
Here’s his first article at Huffpo from ‘08. No wonder they love him.

Upon inspection, I would say young Nathan is long on opinion, but short on fact.
Yes, they are called people of conviction and do not fall for the Marxist agenda of the Ivy League schools.
You have to say this in a 1948 movie accent:
“Why Mr Nathan, I’m so confused, Mr Cruz is smart, now he isn’t smart ... I may just have to use my own mind.”
(dramatic music)
I know a Harvard law grad who is so conceited he wrote not one, but two autobiographies about himself after getting out of law school. Although the rumor is that he may have gotten someone else to write the books for him and then pretended he wrote them.
Cruz Filibustered for how many hours and NEVER ONCE resorted to reading out of the phone book????? And the whole time was engaging and pleasant to listen to...
Yet the “Genius” Obama loses his teleprompter and sound like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omHUsRTYFAU
Did Obama EVER Filibuster in the Senate Chamber when he was a senator from Ill-Noise? Or did he just vote present and go on a Speedo “Man panty” raid at the DC bathhouse?
Ummm no to the book. Nathan must not be doing well in class if he has enough time to write drivel
