Cruz just lost me!
I’ve read that obummer can do this and obummer can do that with the new agreement.
he’s doing what he wants already anyway.
I’ve done a lot of reading and I think the bill is not nearly as damning as some say it is, with all due respect.
why would Cruz suddenly reverse course on all he believes in to vote for this bill? it doesn’t make sense. he still has my vote.
He is doing the RINO rounds.
I'm betting he won't go near Mark Levin right now.
Levin would give him Hell over giving more power to Obama.
Bottom line: NO ONE has a right to say “misinformation” or “you’re jumping to conclusions” when we’ve seen neither the information nor its logical conclusions.
I don’t want to be talked down to. I just want to read the dadgum bill.
I am so disgusted here lately, the republicans committing suicide for Obama, my own rep included. The Japanese lobbying ex-congressman for the trade agreement smacks of the worst corruption. JimRob for president and Sarah Palin for vice president, nuff said.
I’ve been a Cruz guy, have Cruz sticker on my car, on my shoppe window, on my wife’s car, and mention my enthusiasm for him on my FR profile page. But this is big and this is upsetting. Jeff Sessions is the worst public speaker in the Senate but he is sincere on this and Cruz appears too flippant. Cruz should look hard before he leaps again on this issue.
If there is misinformation, the fault is with the secrecy, not the Internet.
As for Cruz, he committed to it in April and now he is stuck. I wonder if he had even read it yet. I seem to remember that he only read it around the middle or end of May. If he made a mistake he would be wise to admit it now and not later. If he thinks he has not made a mistake, he would be wise to blame the secrecy rather than everyone else. He would still lose on issue but he might not also lose in the character department.
I say that while maintaining that overall he has very good character. Everyone can be wrong. This is too important for him to mess up on it. If a flaw is showing through I would say that Cruz can sometimes decide something too soon before he has all the facts. I suppose, again, everyone can be guilty of that, but he had better correct it and correct it fast. He is smart and can figure out how to do it without too much damage to his campaign.
I trust Sessions over anyone in D.C. at this point in time.
My only problem with Cruz is that he still thinks the Constitution matters ... it does, but he thinks he can save us. It has to be Re-Instituted from bottom to top.
Me... I’m jaded, old and experienced... just hopeful.
TT
When Cruz votes for this abolish-the-borders bill, he loses me.
Another juicy nugget from the article:
“Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY)93% is the only 2016 GOP presidential candidate who not only read TPP text before taking a concertedly clear public position on the matter, but also the only 2016 GOP presidential candidate in Congress who voted against the TPA.”
Thank you Senators Sessions and Paul.
Moving Cruz 5 places down on my list. Oh I will still vote for him if he wins nomination, but he gets no support during primaries. His rich benefactors are pulling his strings.
Lots of dust in the air now. If we can’t convince you, we’ll convince you that you’ve been fed misinformation—that durn Internet!—and are confused between the two bills, or something.
Maybe so, but if Obama is for it tells me that no good will come from it.
Back when I was young and there was not political correctness, "misinformation" was called a lie.
Cruz is turning out to be a disappointment. Too silent on key issues, now seeing true colors of him supporting undermining the US, immigration, etc. Confirms his previous positions in favor of amnesty. I’m afraid he’s playing us for fools. I have donated substantially to his campaign. I think I want my money back.
Ted Cruz Ping!
