Senator Cruz ROCKS!
Never did like all that ‘omnibus’ crap.
Muy bueno senor cruz.
If only we had Sen Cruz INSTEAD of Romney debating Obama and this fat slob last year, he would have taken that “transcript” and shoved it up BOTH their a*ses!!!
I’ve said it before, but it never ceases to amaze me how Candy Crowley has managed to last this long as an analyst. She is literally the least insightful political “Talking head” I have seen in my lifetime (leaving aside obvious dilettantes like Meg McCain). Her analysis’ read like a high school freshman taking a social studies exam - simplistic, over-eager, and parroting other people’s facts without adding any individual interpretation of their own.
And why does she still have a job after her debate against Mitt Romney?
What Cruz is very skillfully exposing is that the Marxists are trying to advance their agenda at the expense of the various groups of American citizens. And as long as the Marxists don't concede to the Republican bills, more of their self serving dishonesty will be exposed.
So yes, it actually is like blackmail.
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.
Romney, Ryan, and most other Republicans would have dithered and offered some lame comment that meant nothing. Not Cruz -- he calls out every lie they throw at him!
Cruz rules. He believes what he says. He understands how to be Ted Cruz. He can excite the base again and the fence sitters. We have to have a Ted Cruz run in 2016 or this once great nation is toast.
A man is needed, a man is found.
Time for some Cruz control!
CNN will never invite Ted back.
Where's the BUDGET???
Like many of you, I’ve grown weary of hearing most of the pundits and politicians pussyfooting around this subject. With the exception of Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, Mike Lee and a handful of others on the conservative side, none have come right out and said what every THINKING American KNOWS!
The fight over Obamacare is about stopping the unvetted, unqualified, narcissistic megalomaniacal former community organizer and tyrant in the White House from bringing about his “transformation of America”. That phrase was and is code among his dumbed down and/or uninformed supporters for creating a despotic Marxist redistributionist Utopia. That it has failed everywhere it has been attempted and left misery and death in its wake is of no concern to them. The magic Obama can make it finally work.
One element that may puzzle some of you is why more of the wealthy captains of industry and capitalists – who ostensibly have the most to lose – haven’t spoken out in opposition.
Two reasons (there may be more):
1. They believe they will be princes in the new order, their lives of wealth and ease little affected by the distress inflicted on the us down here, the mass of the great unwashed. They really should restudy the histories of those who collaborated with other tyrants who, once in firm control, dispatched those who had the resources and intellect to topple the new “king” once the inclination to do so took hold of them.
2. During the Cold War, the head of Citibank, one Walter Wriston, was asked why his New York based organization continued to provide financing to the tyrants running the Soviet Union and the slave states the USSR dominated. He replied that it made little difference to him what sort of government these nations had and his only concern was “Can they pay their bills?”
The WWII era Norwegians coined a real world name for those folks: Quisling.
Not at all.
Candy made her objectives clear when she moderated the second Romney/Obama debate.
That is the incident where she came out swinging to protect Obama with her "fact checking" falsehood disputing Romney's charge that Obama did not call the Benghazi kilings an act of terror.
Republicans are idiots for allowing known hard core leftists like Candy to moderate presidential campaign debates.

After her pro-’RAT debate fiasco, I didn’t think Crawley would still have a job.
