The symptoms of the prion disease are beginning to become so obvious that even some of our more prominent pundits are beginning to notice them. For example, even former Karl Rove life-coach Ron Fournier has noticed the severe lack of Abraham Lincolns in the current GOP presidential candidates. And noted climate-denialist and baseball drone George Effing Will has staked out the bold position that many of these candidates have gone so far around the bend that they've crossed some kind of termination barrier.
It is, therefore, especially disheartening that Cruz, who clerked for Chief Justice William Rehnquist and who is better equipped by education and experience to think clearly about courts, proposes curing what he considers this court's political behavior by turning the court into a third political branch.
The problem, of course, is that, for all his expensive education and lengthy experience, Ted Cruz is a nut. And the larger problem is that the institutions of the conservative movement that has cosseted George Effing Will for his entire adult life, and from which he derives his endlessly mysterious influence as a "thinker," were the places where Republicans first ate the monkeybrains containing the prion disease in the first place.

He's starting to attract some good press. He could not buy a review like this if he had Trump's money.

Like it isn’t already, dipsh**.
The metrosexuals at Esquire are getting the vapours.
Isn’t America wonderful? Even 5th graders can get paid to write political commentary.
Charles “Effing” Pierce is a commie traitor..
No wanna-be tyrants? Good.
Ted Cruz Ping! the author could as well have called all of the GOP candidates "bourgeoisie" and been no less obvious about his own biases and prejudices.
of course, his repeated ad hominems against any and all GOP targets in the article had the same effect.
here's a word of advice for the little nancy boy (Charles P. Pierce) who wrote this article... never go full libtard.

He wrote for the Boston Phoenix (freely distributed hippie-sex alternative weekly) and attended Graduate School at Boston College for 2 whole days.
I figured you fellas would like this one:)
Thanks Mariner!
It’s you, Charles, who’s the ‘nut’, not Ted Cruz.
Cruz knows full well what he’s talking about, and the Constitution, the intent of the Founders, and God are Mr. Cruz’s guide.
That’s a hard concept for someone like ‘Charlie the Tuna’ to grasp, since his brain is ruled by emotion rather than wisdom, and serious thought.
It is too bad that for years publications like Esquire and GQ are almost unbearably liberal, and not even close to being rational.
The Court has made itself into the 3rd legislative branch. Cruz wants to return it to its Constitutional role as the Judicial branch.
The author is the one who is the nut.
A bum's Lupica.
Picked last in gym class for every activity? Of course he was.
That was goofy. “Effing”, eating monkeybrains? What a goofball.
lefty Esquire writer sez, Ted Cruz is a nut...
projection
No third-grade dropouts? No backwoods trouble-makers with severe depression and Marfan’s disease?
