Will the scumbags at NYT investigate and publish his academic records?
Oh my. DT is one hundred million more gotchas ahead of Cruz. DT is so low info he will be easy to take out now that Teddy is making his move.
That Cruz noted the loans on his personal disclosures in 2012 suggests there was no nefarious attempt to hide them. Far more likely that as Frazier claims, this was a simple reporting error. No special loan terms were granted, so it’s not as though Cruz was given special concessions because of his wife’s job. Further, as the NYT reports, the loans have been paid down. While the NYT story is technically accurate, it’s not a super secret exposed! piece by any stretch. It might appear so for those unaware of Cruz’s long-standing Wall Street connections, but that’s about it.
From legal insurrection.
I am really glad he borrowed that money and became senator and is on his way to being 45.
Puny, you don’t belong on a conservative site such as this. All of your attacks are regurgitations from the left.
I just realized that someone else already posted this thread, but for some reason they used a different title than what the article was (so I didn’t see it). The original thread is in the breaking news section, in case you need to change its title or not.
Everyday Americans get loans to start businesses, to do everything. The fortunate ones are successful and can pay it back. I can relate to that. I can’t relate to the limo liberals.. No matter what party they run with.... People who love the bright shiny lights.. Especially when there is a camera or a mirror nearby.
The Slimes must’ve gotten the all-clear to launch in on Cruz.

Maybe this will get the ball rolling on all the candidates getting a full vetting by the media on financial issues...or Hillary at the very least.
Where is this Democrat rag’s anal exam of Hillary’s campaign funds? She and her HINO fixed their “mistakes” of not filing income reports from thei money laundering “foundation” by filing amended forms and not a peep from the NYT. Ted Cruz should file his amendment and tell the Democrat media to pound sand. There should not be a different standard for Republicans than for Democrats.
Sen. “Goldmann Sachs” Cruz is a lying scum
who voted for SECRET ObamaCARE because he had
a financial reason ..... beyond his wife.
It does not bother anyone that Goldman Sachs is in on this? I love Cruz, but GS is the sleaziest bank on Wall Street and funds most of the globalization of America.
Pray America wakes
This seems like a non-story to me. The main reason I’m posting to this thread is to have access to the salient points that make it a non-issue IMO namely:
The Times sensationalism is just that; this WAS reported in numerous places, just not every “I”’was dotted or “t” was crossed. Anyone thinking there’s a “gotcha”’here should ask themselves, “How good at hiding this info were they (the Cruzes) if they reported this info virtually everywhere else but on one form?” It seems more likely to me that it was indeed a simple oversight.
This was known information for quite some time. The Times is recycling garbage in a nakedly desperate attempt to discredit Cruz.
Some seem to be making hay out of the fact that during his Senate campaign he was saying how he and his wife were sacrificing much and going down to their last penny to fund the campaign but yet they really took out a loan to do it. So they were “lying”. This is patently uncharitable if not inaccurate to say because really, why does anyone take out a loan for anything? Because one doesn’t have the money to do what is desired, duh!
The fact he (they) took out a loan only shows MORE how they were “down to their last penny” not less! And as another pointed out, while they were repaid some of the loan by the campaign, not all of it was repaid and even as the Times documents, they are still on the hook for at least $500 G’s. So it’s actually a net loss for them.
Did they take out a loan? Yes. But they did so because they are responsible people and didn’t want to just dump all their money into something that could fail. Think if the campaign hadn’t been successful. Or even now that it was successful. Either way, if they hadn’t taken out the loan, all the money their children need to live off of would be gone. At least this way they would still have money in the bank if things went south! It’s responsible behavior, to be commended and not chastised.
And who cares if it’s from Goldman Sachs. It’s still a loan that they are responsible for. Get back to me if the loan suddenly “disappears” for no reason at all. Then you might have a case for improper transactions and such. Until then, all this is is a big nothing burger. Courtesy of the Times.
When have FReepers been so willing to work with the Times anyway; to smear the most conservative candidate to come along in literally decades?
Something stinks, like stale French fries. And it’s not Ted Cruz.
Ted goes down a notch in my book. GS is the dirt bag of the industry. God knows what they think Cruz owes them.
