Sowell made a mistake with Cruz, but Sowell has been fighting liberalism effectively for longer than Cruz has been in politics. We cannot afford to throw him under the bus for one mistake.

I completely agree that Sowell is a true warrior for the conservative cause. I found it very curious that he had a “slug” of articles last week that were critical of Cruz. I was stumped as to why Sowell was attacking someone who seems to be fighting on the same side.

I'm not throwing Dr. Sowell under the bus, I am, however, correctly taking him to task for writing commentaries against Ted Cruz that can only be called sacrificing conservative ethics and principles for the historically failed strategies of the GOP-E.

I have enormous respect for Dr. Sowell's past efforts; but his latest editorials leave me believing either that he has changed, in a dramatic way, from being a stalwart conservative to somewhat mushy conservative, or he was never what I thought he was.
