"I think we need to consider all options when trying to resolve our immigration problem and what to do with the millions of illegal immigrants already living here"; Mr. Cruz wrote in a five-page memo," offering Mr. Bush some flexibility on what has long been a thorny issue for Republicans. "But, right now, I don' think amnesty is the answer."

I sure wish the slimes had demonstrated this kind of diligent digging on one Mr. Barack (Barry) Hussein Obama (Soetoro) (Soebarak).

At any rate we know know that 16 years ago, While in the employ of G.W. Bush, accommodated his boss. Absolutely shocking and immensely relevant news.

The NYT is desperate to find something negative to write about Senator Cruz. They have to go back to 1999 and then twist the story to try to make Cruz look bad.

Diligent digging—or a gift to them from the Rubio team?

Yeah, well, we had about 30 million fewer illegals then, too.

Up yours, NYT.

So, you’ve found evidence that sixteen years ago, long before he was a US Senator, before he was a Bush administration official, before he was Solicitor General of Texas, Ted Cruz was STILL AGAINST AMNESTY!!

On the other hand, in 2012, trump was critical of Gov. Romney for suggesting self-deportation.

Exactly.

And this is why, even though I love his current rhetoric, I don’t trust Trump.

Yeah, and in 1999 I’ll bet he took a milder tone on Islam. I sure did.

Troll article is a troll post.
