The Cruz question was only posed, IMHO, so that Sowell could have a foundation for this resounding conclusion.

Sowell just warned, in starkly clear terms for an elite public persona, that Obama is on the Hitler trajectory.

I think you nailed it. That's exactly what has happened.

I wish my hero Thomas Sowell, whom I hold in the highest political regard of all men living, top spot, would speak out as forcefully against functional Democrats like Romney not only fraudulently taking the mantle "Republican," but being legitimized by party leadership instead of being kicked out on his ass for the phony he is. THAT is the problem. THAT is the dynamic forcing the 37% split.

Either that or Sowell has sided with the GOP-E, and I think they are big government, and that big government is socialist.

And the socialist camp is the camp that produced Hitler who was leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party....Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei...NA..ZI

Travis, Sowell didn’t need to use Cruz in the way he did to make the point that Obama is on the fast track to becoming a dictator. Sowell’ s suggestion that by taking a principled stand he will ultimately be personally responsible for Obama’s ascendancy to tyranny is probably the stupidest and most irresponsible thing Sowell has ever said.

Sowell should instead have pointed out that McConnell broke his oath not to cave to Obama and send him a clean debt bill, and Sowell has the temerity to call Cruz on the carpet for refusing to go along with McConnell’s treachery.

This article is utter nonsense and I think someone has infected Sowell’ s previously brilliant mind.
