Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz is lashing out at Marco Rubio and Donald Trump on immigration while facing New Hampshire voters for the first time since his Iowa caucus victory.

Cruz charged that Rubio led the fight for "amnesty" for immigrants in the country illegally. He also said Trump didn't do anything to fight immigration reform as the debate raged on Capitol Hill in 2013.

Oh, AuntB, don’t confuse the Cruzbots with facts. Their ST. Cruz is - infallible.

>> “Trump has led the way on illegals/immigration” <<

Utterly absurd!

Every position Trump offered in 2015 was taken from an earlier position of Cruz’.

That is clearly documented.

And he did this by using deceipt (lies) by signaling his support of the legislation in order to get his 'poison pill' amendments passed.

Jeff Sessions says "Ted Cruz was on MY SIDE and fought this legislation all the way through".

Trump's immigration plan is a blatant ruse. He is a long time whore for the cheap labor express who has stood on his right to screw his workers out of their contract for twenty years. He is a proven abuser of the working man and you trust him.

lol....Cruz wasn't talking about illegals until Trump took all the heat and wouldn't back down.

That is simply not true.

If I show that you are lying, will you leave the forum? I can easily find a half dozen posts that show you believe what Trump has promised.

AuntB, you can’t be that stupid!

Things Cruz had to draft for Bush cannot be called his own.

You ask us to believe that Cruz was telling the President what the position was to be. Was George W. Bush just a flunky following Ted Cruz’ orders?

Get real!

Notice how Cruz “lashes out” at Trump and Rubio by attacking their policy positions, while Trump attacks Cruz because his speech was “far too long, rambling, [and] overly flamboyant”?

It’s substance vs. bluster, folks.


Policy positions? Like the Cruz campaign poll tested “Trump is a NY Liberal” smear? Is that the policy positions you refer to? Sorry, Cruz is dishing out as much as he’s receiving.

AuntB offers no facts WRT Cruz.

She lists the position of Bush when Cruz was a staffer for Bush, and attempts to make us believe that Cruz, not Bush was in charge.

I realize that you are not cognitively gifted, but even you should be able to see the folly in your assertion.

Megyn Kelly: "The record supports you." [Cruz: "Anyone here illegally is permanently ineligible for citizenship."] "It was a poison pill." "You do have a consistent record on that; I will give you that; we did look back on it."

Sunday night Luntz was on interviewing a young caucus voter who said she was originally for Trump but turned away from him and became a strong Cruz supporter. But she said that after watching the exchange between Megyn and Cruz about immigration during the debate she turned away from Cruz because it appeared he wasn't being honest with his reply to Kelly. She said she was now a Rubio supporter and will never change.

Of course Luntz never pointed out to her that Megyn Kelly admitted Cruz was correct and telling the truth about the issue.

The whole segment appeared to be a set up to promote Rubio anyway, but still...

The "New York Values" 'smear' (as you call it) was based on Trump's own words, and his own prior positions.

If Trump thought the G of 8 bill was suicide, why did he call for just temporarily sending the illegals home, then bringing them back with amnesty?

Are you running interference for deceiver Trump?

Trump later confessed that he cannot run his resort hotels without those illegals. He said that he loves them.

Luntz’ job is to hand over whatever propaganda Fox requests.

He is completely without honor.

Former legislators can enact nothing whatsoever.
