9/11 WIDOWER INVITES CRUZ TO LEARN ABOUT 'NEW YORK VALUES'
ABC 7 CHICAGO ^ | 16 JANUARY 2016 | JENNIFER HANSLER

Sept. 11 widower James Smith knows something about New York values. Smith's wife, Moira, was killed in the 9/11 terrorist attacks. She was the only female law enforcement official killed that day.

When Smith, a retired NYPD officer himself, heard about Ted Cruz's "New York values" remark earlier this week, he took to Facebook to invite the Republican candidate to the Big Apple.

"I was disappointed by your disparaging remarks about New York values somehow being different from Iowa and New Hampshire values," Smith wrote. "I invite you to come to the National 9-11 Memorial and Museum and see for yourself, and perhaps learn something about, the values of New Yorkers."

He told the moderator that NewYorkers would not understand it. That was a stupid comment for somebody as intelligent as Cruz.

Sad that so many are so stupid. NY values are Cuomo and DiBlasio. You know, liberals and communists.

“I hope Cruz recovers.”

There is nothing to recover to. Cruz needs to go all in against Trump, not NewYork or NewYorkers.

Actually it benefits Cruz a number of ways much more than it damages him, its a strategic advantage that Cruz put in place to both expose Trumps liberal core, and help boost Cruz in the South. Its Cruz moving his chess pieces closer to check mate. Its time Trump is vetted thoroughly, every Democrat donation, every word.

If you can’t win on the issues, create one.

islam and its followers are to blame for 911. Kill them before they kill you.

Yes, of course. Because only New York first-responders run into danger. All other first-responders must be cowards in comparison.

That is what he may have intended to refer to, however, that’s not what he said. As a debater, he knows how important words are. That is why this will not go away....nor will the NBC issue.

“So you support DiBlasio and Cuomo”

Dumb move. So he attacks the entire state because of the politicians it elects? Does Cruz hate the US because it elected Obama?

Cruz sounds like an ungrateful immigrant biting the hand that feeds him. Reminds me of the story about the refugees in Germany rioting because of the slow wifi.

Well, you might as well throw in every major city in America.

No?
