Ted Cruz will not be beholding to the libertarian/liberal Koch brothers or anyone else that does not put America first. David Koch also supports homosexual "marriage" and abortion.

Good on TED CRUZ.........

[cripplecreek]

I’d rather get rid of the federal sentencing guidelines.

[Lake Living]

Perhaps this is the reason no ad time has been purchased by the Cruz super pacs - Koch brothers influence (?).

[skeeter]

I predict the Koch Brothers are about to be transformed into heroes of the left.

“Ted Cruz will not be beholding to the libertarian/liberal Koch brothers or anyone else that does not put America first. David Koch also supports homosexual “marriage” and abortion. “

At the end of the day, the Koch Bros. are as bad for America as is George Soros. They can take their megabucks and find a way to shove every last one of them up their own a$$es!

At this point, being rejected by the Koch brothers is an endorsement.

There no such thing as a fiscal conservative/social libertarian. When you divorce morality from society, fiscal conservatism goes down the drain as well.

Fiscal conservatism is a moral position.

(article:" Cruz came out against the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act (S. 2123) on the grounds that the legislation,
which will retroactively reduce the sentences of thousands of federal prison inmates, could lead to the release of violent criminals,
some convicted of using weapons while engaged in other crimes."

The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act (S. 2123)
ignores that many charges of violence were overlooked in order to plea to a lesser conviction
thus speeding up the process of conviction and sentancing.
Retroactive re-sentancing doesnt make sense !

“We are disappointed that some members, including Senator Cruz, who have supported the need for reform and been strong supporters of the Bill of Rights, did not support this bill.”

So easy for people like him and his bosses to say, when they live in the most secure neighborhoods in the country, surrounded by well trained, funded, and more importantly staffed police departments, and are surrounded by a massive personal security apparatus. These people aren’t affected by the crime wave. They are so insulated from all of it, so none of it is a real concern to them. However, let one of them suffer the same fate as the Petit family did in Cheshire, Connecticut and I’d bet my last $1 that they’d singing a different tune.

I love Cruz, but agree with the Koch brothers on this. Reform is needed.

Can't agree on everything, can't hug every cat.

It’s also retroactive law, which is prohibited by the Constitution.

[FourPeas]

Cruz is right. Barry’s already letting out scores of violent felons. More will only make the situation worse.
