“For the first time, I am confused as to what Sowell is trying to say.... ?? What is he saying?”
*********************************************************************
It’s not so much WHAT he is saying as it is WHY he is saying it. My take is that a major donor to the Hoover Institute (HI) has gotten to the HI and has demanded that the HI begin attacking Ted Cruz. It’s always amazing to me how far the tentacles of corruption can extend.
The GOPe MIGHTILY fears Ted Cruz because he stands for and is EFFECTIVELY fighting for the survival of the American Republic. And Cruz’ success is frightening those shallow creatures.
The money has gotten everywhere.
But we are bullish, not bearish, on the Tea Party. The GOP-e and Sowell and others think we should abandon the Tea Party because its candidates can’t win. We think we should stick with the Tea Party because its candidates can win.
We both want the liberals out.
But as I’ve said before, it has become a turf war to the GOP-e. We don’t even think of it in those terms. They are shallow and want to keep the power and the money. We are principled.
Also, if Cruz is looking out for himself, it’s because he knows he’s the one to lead us out of our trouble. He believes in his cause and in himself. How else would you want him to act if he believes he’s right? Buy TV ads for the other guys?
