Oh, how rich!!! And the Twitter comments are genius.

Cruz is very smart, indeed.

Ha!!! Very funny indeed. Here, in the midst of Shakespeare, we quote SLN! Good one.

I went there to see some ads, and bits of content kept getting in my way.

Cruz is a lot smarter than most of his media critics. I’d expect he’ll be permanently banned from Twitter and other social media soon enough, so he’d better enjoy making fools of them while it lasts.

No educated person should need to check this at all.

There are several generations of voters who know nothing about Shakespeare except that he's a dead white male who they should ignore.

The media people are generally dumb as boxes of rocks.

Cruz: "It's reminiscent of Melville in that Mitchell is 'spitting her last breath at thee.'"

Mitchell: "Actually, that's Kahn."

Watching Andrea Mitchell cry the night Hillary lost the primaries to Obama in 2008 was very satisfying.

Andrea Mitchell thinks William Shakespeare is something you order at the bar how some talking heads get a job we will never know.

I don’t think Andrea paid much attention in English Literature class.

She was too busy looking for a rich older man to marry.

This is typical snarky, smugness emanating from the absolute sense of superiority of the new American priestly class.

I’m surpried they didn’t “memory hole” the quote from MacBeth to prove Faulkner said it first. (THose darn hard-copies in home libraries!)

If she didn’t know where the title of Faulkner’s novel came from, it’s a bit of a stretch for her to say she studied American Literature.

Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn, and caldron bubble.
Fillet of a fenny snake,
In the caldron boil and bake;
Eye of newt, and toe of frog,
Wool of bat, and tongue of dog,
Adder’s fork, and blind-worm’s sting,
Lizard’s leg, and owlet’s wing,
For a charm of powerful trouble,
Like a hell-broth boil and bubble.

OK, Ted, now suggest that the hearings are leading into a Shakespearean Brave New World,

“How beauteous mankind is!
O brave new world
That has such people in’t!”

ands wait for Andrea Mitchell to claim that was Aldous Huxley, not Shakespeare!

What should ANYONE expect from a fairly ugly woman who marries a really ugly man-= Alan Greenspan (guess it has to be luuuuv— or is that a quote from High Times?). What’s in a Name? (heh)— a Federal Reserve private bank banker whose name is translated from some Romanian language name which has no translation to it. Compare photos of the two-
she married her twin.

And the other plug ugly— the truly insane Jennifer Rubin. Certifiable and needs professional help.

If they had read Macbeth for content they might not have developed in to who they are... harpies.
