A lot more about Senator Cruz at the link.

NewsMax has to be radically excerpted

[Secret Agent Man]

liberals compliment you when you have no chance of winning. ex. solo Cruz. they know you can’t implement your beliefs so why not appear magnanimous.

" He has to qualify among the brightest of the students.""

Does that mean 0bama was not?

Wow. Dershowiz is kinder than McCain about Cruz.......SHOCKED..../s

[Gene Eric]

Dershowitz has made a handful of objective comments despite the political tide. CNN is responsible for the scheduling.

[oldbrowser]

"They're talking about how the government has to pay its debts, how it has to secure the credit of the United States . . . Nobody, in a million years, would have contemplated the power of Congress to shut down the government to create doubts about our credit-worthiness," Dershowitz said.

Is he kidding? They were talking about killing tyrants if need be. The shutting down of the government was exactly what they had in mind.

Goes to show who's the bigger man.....

[Cringing Negativism Network]

I actually was in the minority here, in that I disagreed with Ted Cruz on Obamacare.

But I’m all for him in every other regard.

Now. There is a Republican healthcare bill in the house, which they did not pass. Yet.

Just saying...

for cruz timing didn’t matter. one guy in the democrat controlled senate. they can afford a few platitudes, they were never going to have a problem there.

Former economic adviser to President Barack Obama, Austan Goolsbee, appearing on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity” on Tuesday, said much the same thing about his former Harvard classmate.

“I think Democrats would make a big mistake to underestimate him,” Goolsbee said. “I think he’s very smart.”

[RedMDer]

Cruz does understand the dangers of Socialized Health care and he fights to save us from it.

Alan Dershowitz can be a fair man at times, even if he is a liberal.

[Bluestocking]

In all the years Barack Obama has been in the public eye, never once has a former professor of his made a statement praising his intelligence or abilities as Alan Dershowitz has done for Ted Cruz.

The Clintons also have never been publicly praised by any of their former professors at the Yale Law School or their undergraduate colleges.

In addition, neither Obama nor the Clintons ever served as Supreme Court clerks — a great distinction — as Ted Cruz and Mike Lee have. In Washington, Ted Cruz is Gulliver among the Lilliputians, and he proves it more and more each day.

[skeeter]

He's also complimenting Cruz because the GOP establishment is publicly trashing him.

Stupid RINOs.

[GOPJ]

Dershowitz’s - for better or worse - is totally his own man. He says what he believes - period. Sometimes he stands with liberals, sometimes with conservatives...

Forty six Senators talking serially on a range of issues could have slowed down, or stopped a hundred bills that mean something to individual Democrats but nothing to the leader. McConnell, however, does not have it in himself the ability to lead an insurrection.
