SCP:
This article should give you some more context and information about the true role of Heidi Cruz when she worked with the CFR. Ha ha ha. Is that what you call it. "Context and information". I call it invective and spin. As regards my posting, once again:
- My posting consists of the exerpted text of the report.
- The only source for it is the report itself on the CFR web site.
- The full report is linked, which will give people the full context.
- Despite the claims of your rebuttal, Heidi Cruz is listed as both a member of the task force, and an endorser of the report. Not everyone on the task force endorsed it. I would think if Ms. Cruz had objections to the majority of it, as your rebuttal claims she would not have endorsed it.
- Dragging the John Birch Society into this discussion is way off target, THAT is the real smear. Very SPLC like. Link any negative comments about your favored candidate to a widely disliked group.
- I am not part of "whisper campaign". I posted the link to Heidi's article and a few of the key conclusions.
- I have nothing to do with "Dewhurst or Addison".
- The article you have linked is pure spin and invective. It is also extremely misleading. It only partially quotes Ms. Cruz. Here is the full Ms. Cruz quote, with the ommitted parts highlighted:
I support the Task Force report and its recommendations aimed at building a safer and more prosperous North America. Economic prosperity and a world safe from terrorism and other security threats are no doubt inextricably linked. While governments play an invaluable role in both regards, we must emphasize the imperative that economic investment be led and perpetuated by the private sector. There is no force proven like the market for aligning incentives, sourcing capital, and producing results like financial markets and profit-making businesses. This is simply necessary to sustain a higher living standard for the poorest among ustruly the measure of our success. As such, investment fundsand financingmechanisms shouldbe deemedattractive instruments by those committing the capital and should only be developed in conjunction with market participants. Heidi S. Cruz
- I'm a Freeper, I'm not being paid by anyone. I've been posting here since 1998, over 15,000 comments, only a few dozen on Ted Cruz.
- In contrast the author of the misleading, invective filled piece is by a paid Ted Cruz staffer. Here is a link to his bio. Which includes this statement:
He has worked as Texas State Director for the Gary Johnson Presidential campaign, as an adviser to the Ted Cruz senatorial campaign and as Communications Director for the Travis County Republican Party.
