Cruz: 2012 Disclosure Should Have Noted Goldman Sachs Loan
The Texas Tribune ^ | 1/13/16 | Patrick Svitek

Posted on 01/13/2016 7:44:54 PM PST by proust

DORCHESTER, S.C. - Responding to a report that said he did not disclose a loan from his wife's employer during his 2012 U.S. Senate campaign, Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz called the issue a "technical and inadvertent filing error" that he will fix if necessary.

I wish I had a 97% success rate investing in stocks and bonds, much less something high risk.

Add that to his support of Eminent Domain for his personal projects and Donald Trump is a paragon of morality!

And you’re trying to damage Trump supporters with your post.

Hmm, using tactics you accuse others of doing.. That must be one of the rules for radicals....

Inadvertent is nothing but weasel-words used by someone that can’t Man-UP to their shortcomings and mistakes. Why does Cruz use that word?

To slink away from responsibility. It’s a black spot.

I’ll stick with Trump!

So because Levin ranted and raved about it, and because the “NY Slimes” covered it, that makes it untrue?

Does Mark realize that Cruz admitted it was true? Does Mark not realize what Goldman Sachs is, and what it does? Does Mark not realize that GS was Obama’s #1 donor in 2008? Does Mark not realize how the Heidi Cruz-Goldman link stinks to high heaven?


Levin was sweeping this under the rug for Cruz because he knows it harms Cruz’s outside the GOPe candidacy campaign facade. Levin all but endorsed Cruz on his show tonight. He’s far from objective on Cruz these days.

For someone who rails against the “Washington Cartel”, Cruz sure does a lot of business with them. Now I’m curious about his donations from Washington Cartel fat cats. Let’s see if Cruz’s actions match his rhetoric. Given his flip flops on immigration and trade, I’m certain they don’t match.

Unfortunately, the more time goes on the more clear it becomes that Cruz is not all he seems. He has carefully constructed this “Principled Conservative” non GOPe persona while in reality behaving like a typical career politician, IMO.

That poster is a DC establishment troll.

He has switched sides more than Cher has wigs over the years.

He is more likely a Jeb bot

You are making up those stats. He had 3 Casinos and all three filed bankruptcy.

Apparently that is perfectly legal. Ethics could be debated, but legality could not. But hey, if Trumpsters want to make big deals out of nothing about Cruz, there is a treasure trove of questions that could be asked about Trump and his dealings. All while we should be spending time taking about conservative issues and persuading the American people that the left is WRONG!

Did you know that Trump rolled in 110 million dollars of PERSONAL DEBT in to one of those bankruptcies?

Just imagine if this was about Trump! LOL

The Cruz hypocrites are displaying collective projection complexes of enormous proportions. The nasty name calling, the vulgar insults, and the hypocritical postings must make Teddy so "proud" of them.

Naw, just pointing out reality and what should be obvious to Trump Supporters, but apparently, the level of emotional support for Trump is too much to ask Trump supporters to stick to their conservative principles.

What sort of special deal do you think he got here? Pretty much none as a loan against one’s life savings (in a brokerage account) is more or less automatic and even the NYTimes concluded that there was no special deal there.

His wife does work for them (not a crime so far as I know), and almost certainly has to keep her accounts with them from a compliance perspective.

Further the loan was publicly disclosed during his senate race (shown in the link below), but not put on another form. Oh, and how did the NYTimes find this huge “secret”? By looking at his public disclosure forms... yeah, real scandal there.

Finally the loan was against their brokerage account (essentially 1/3 their life savings) in order to run as an underdog in a senate race because he thought it was the right thing to do.

Obviously, YOU have less than NO IDEA what Alinsky’s RULES FOR RADICALS actually says; didums. Yet you and your ilk are experts in those tactics.
