Excellent response, Sen. Cruz.

But always remember the admonition about using care in wrestling with pigs.

“If for no other reason I respect Ted Cruz for maintaining his composure while being interviewed by someone bearing the sensory equivalent of John Belushi wearing a wig.”

Thanks for the laugh to start off my week.

When Candy asked Cruz why he didn't use the tactic of allowing ObamaCare to fail - then doing an “I told you so” - Cruz should have said that he's trying to help Americans from having to live with that life threatening failure.

Candy sees it all as just politics... she doesn't care that real people are going to be hurt by this... for her a ‘crisis’ is just a terrible thing to waste...as it is for all elite democrats.

How does anyone watch that show? Behind the interviewee is that hypnotic moving graphic. I can’t even pay attention, and I usually hang on to every word Cruz says.

Anyway, she is a lightweight compared to him. she must have hated doing that interview.

Her people and the dems have been blackmailing her for years to spin for them. It must come as an uncomfortable surprise to find him so far removed from blackmail

This is a network that hired Ashleigh Banfield, for gods sake.

I'd never watch that show, but this clip is worth watching.

He slammed her every leading question, and then some.

By the end she was exasperated. AND it was on CNN for the left to see.

And why does she still have a job after her debate against Mitt Romney?

It is simple: she helped Obama out of corner. “Candy, get the transcripts” is evidence the debate was rigged. What other explanation could there be? If she was being fair, why would she need transcripts that would supposedly support Obama? Why would she need transcripts at all?

“Never did like all that ‘omnibus’ crap.”

I agree. That omnibus stuff makes bills so big that they have to be passed to see what’s in them. Which is how we got where we are now. When the devil is in the fine print and the bills have thousands of pages of fine print guess who winds up catching Hell, it isn’t the politicians and lawyers who write the crap.

When ever I hear the name, Candy Crowley, I have visions of news rooms around the nation with people jumping to their feet and high fiving when Candy and Obama pulled off their "Check the Transcript" gotcha game on Mitt Romney.

It must truly have been seen as a milestone flash point for the electronic journalism community.

I disagree.

I think there has been some serious Communist indoctrination.

Blacks...women...the disabled. They miss no angles.

But the hypnosis...it is aimed at the general audience...

But the hard-core left only hears her insult. It ignores Cruz.

Think "Invasion of the Body Snatchers"...but it ain't their bodies which have been snatched. It is their minds.

And they are incapable of getting it.

I milked a Jersey cow as a boy. She was sweet, gentle and affectionate. I believe you owe the entire species an apology for the comparison to Candy Crowley.

Oh, I agree.

It will be a faint bell when they, or someone close to them, is faced with a triple increase in their monthly health premium.

........agreed, even though I still love Sarah, Cruz is just a steamroller..........he’s the Babe Ruth of politics, meaning he knocks it out of the park like no other!

I pray he is the nominee in 16 and the prez in 17. Single handedly, he can save the LIV’s from themselves and US with them.

Whatever the outcome of the Shutdown of 2013 may be, it has been turning Ted Cruz into a major political rock star whom the Democrats will not be able to free themselves from for decades.

Every day as thousands of Americans respond with shock and awe to the revelations of how extremely high their new healthcare premiums will be under ObamaCare, they will be turning to Ted Cruz as their savior.

Obama needs to get out of this mess he’s created just as he needed to extricate himself from his harebrained plans to bomb Syria, because as long as he and Harry Reid adamantly refuse to negotiate an end to the Shutdown, there Ted Cruz will be on the Sunday talkshows every week representing the ever-increasing multitudes of newly shocked and awed anti-ObamaCare Americans. But, unfortunately, Vladimir Putin is not here to save Obama from himself this time.

The standard excuse for politicians voting for pork is that it was a package deal and they HAD to vote for it. The dems are making it abundantly clear that the ONLY kind of meat they process is sausage. The line-item veto that every President in the world has wanted, because it allows only GOOD stuff to be passed, is right there for Harry Reid to use - and he refuses. He will ONLY process sausage.

Because he’s a crooked weinie-head.

And anybody who can’t see that is.... well, about as crooked as the weinie-head Candy Crowley who orchestrated a PR stunt during a Presidential debate in order to push an official lie/perjury about the deaths of 4 Americans in Benghazi.

Oh I love Sarah too. I wish she hadn’t been tricked into running with McCain. She excited the base but McCain was such a rino that Sarah caught the blame by the other rinos for him losing. Truth is without Sarah, McCain would have gotten less than 30% of the vote.
