That's right. Ted Cruz to be on Leno tonight. Looking forward to FReepers comments as they are always informative and many are very humorous at the same time. Buckle up FReepers. I'm sure that Ted and Jay will keep us both informed and entertained.
Stay tuned or set your DVRs (NBC). This should be great. Go Cruz!
Hopefully, this is posted early enough to give FReepers time to plan on watching or recording. I will do both :)

Heh. I’ll bet Jay treats him well.

[mylife]

Excessive grunting?

OOOahghhhhh!

[onyx]

He’d better treat Ted Cruz like a hero!

[mylife]

We shall see.

My money is on Ted being unflappable.

[onyx]

Thanks so much.
I can’t see anything. I’m fortunate to be here.
I don’t dare mess with this computer.

I honestly can’t remember the last time I watched NBC anything.........Probably in the years category.

[sickoflibs]

Got it on.

Man network TV has a lot of commercials.

I haven’t watched it for years.

[GeronL]

bump!

we are glad you are here!

[onyx]

You guys were good and loud.
Hear you cheering for Ted Cruz!!!

[mylife]

Good singer or bad singer?

[onyx]

LOLOL.
Same here!
I watch Law and Order occasionally.

[Jane Long]

Same here. Leno looks old!

Ted got a loud applause when Jay said he'd be on the show....Yay, FReepers!!

[onyx]

Aw, thank you so much, GeronL!!!
I’m happy to be back here.

[Jane Long]

Well, Jay just described Ted as “one of the most polarizing” figures in DC. Where’ve we heard that before?

[onyx]

I’m watching this Asian laughing horse.
I must be behind...LOL.

[RonDog]

I think Ted can handle that.

Of course. Seator Cruz did a VERY GOOD job tonight. :)

It's just that he could have come across so much BETTER,
if Jay wasn't constantly on the attack.

Jay's FIRST question to Senator Cruz set the tone:

"I've been reading a lot about you lately, and they describe you as
'aggressive, arrogant, and abrasive.' Accurate?"

And, it went downhill from there.

It seemed like just a matter of time until Jay asked him,
"So, have you stopped beating your wife?"

[The Cajun]

“Jay walking” is uhhhhhh, kind of pukish, imho.

[onyx]

UGH.

Did you all boo Jay?

[onyx]

I reckon Jay will kiss Christie’s ample rear end.
