I guess on this point we must agree to disagree. I do expect people to say what they mean. Especially Cruz, a lawyer and a debater, should be able to carefully parse his words almost reflexively. If I catch myself generalizing I correct myself. I think there is a place for generalities. but on National TV or in front of a roomful of cameras his comments were perhaps better phrased more precisely unless he was looking to have a sound bite to play at a later date.

On another note whether Trump is right or wrong in the instance linked below he was careful not to generalize and had sources he thought adequate to support his conclusions.

Yes, we'll have to agree to disagree on this.

Believe it or not I defended Trump's Mexican remark, pointing out that he used the qualifier, "some"...although he waited until his next sentence which really muddied the waters.

Wouldn't take the time to defend him now.

Or did I just do that.
