Is Dana Milbank one of the Washington Composts many leftist columnists really a girly man or do you think hes just pretending?
"Finally, Senate Republicans are standing up to the bully who terrorized them the past two and a half years and theyre finding out he isnt so tough, after all. After Cruz on the Senate floor Friday called his fellow Republican, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.), a liar, his GOP colleagues have moved swiftly to shut down his antics. They voted in large numbers to renew the Export-Import Bank (McConnells scheduling of the vote, opposed by Cruz, is what prompted Cruz to accuse McConnell of lying) and they thwarted Cruz and his sidekick, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Utah), on poison-pill amendments to the highway bill..."
A bully who terrorized Republicans? How did he do that, exactly? By threatening to wipe entire nations off the earth, like Iran has done a country John Boehner et al. are more than willing to negotiate with? Or did he perhaps create a little army of radicals who are ready and willing to behead anyone who disagrees with the dear Senator from Texas?
Why no. Of course not. All Cruz did was standing up for conservative principles. Thats it. He was elected by the people of Texas; they wanted him to actually behalve like a principled conservative
and thats exactly what he has done.
Apparently, thats enough nowadays to accuse someone of terrorizing and of being a bully. In the real world, where real men live, the entire notion is laughable, but Dana Milbank lives in the Washington bubble so he actually thinks that nagging and whining like a disgruntled little girl makes people sympathize with him.

Standing up for what you believe in = Bullying Behavior
Shouting down and silencing those who disagree with you = Standing up for what you believe in.

Ted Cruz really does terrify the democrats and probably more than a few elected republicans.
Real people not so much.

Pathetic.
Ted Cruz told the truth. If that's so tough to take, it must mean there are some embarrassed people out there. Too bad.

So calling people out to follow through on implementing legislation they were sent to Washington to do and not buddy up with lobbyists and big money donors is now called bullying? Dana, time to stop inhaling that bad air in DC full of lefty and establishment myopia, and get out there amongst the people of this country to find out the truth that what y’all are doing in the nation’s capital is making Americans lives miserable.
