If the opinion polls are correct, Sen. Ted Cruz will be shown a thing or two on Tuesday by the New York voters he’s been insulting by going on about fellow Republican presidential contender Donald Trump’s “New York values.’’
Everyone knows what values he meant, Cruz says. We sure do. Cruz meant freedom, respect, diversity and striving. But he disdains those values when it means gays are free, women are respected, and immigrants strive. Unfortunately for Cruz, those all-inclusive values help build prosperity — and win national elections.
Here are some of our New York values:
Hard work. If you can do the job, you can have it. Thee same goes for a house, an apartment, or even a cake for a same-sex wedding. Offices and entire communities are better off because they’re open-minded to diversity. You can make it here — as long as you can do the work.

We don’t have any values here.
Anybody who opposes New York Values is a traitor. Mr. Trump needs to round them all up and deport them on day 1 after his inauguration. He should gather the names now so that he can punish them as soon as he is in office.
Why? because we refuse to accept faggotry, to toady up in diversity to the same Islam that brought down the twin towers? To give up our guns?
I quit reading right there.
Deport me? Hahahahahahaha! My ancestors were here in the 1600s and I married a gal from a MUCH older family. You want me out of the US? Come in the fall, pack a lunch, bring lots of friends--and we'll hang Christmas lights on your frozen corpses.
You who won't allow an oil well to be fracced but expect the rest of us to heat you! You want to tell us about hard work?
Getting closer to Valve Closing Day.
Actually, he didn't. His name appears twice on that paperwork, the same as anyone else from the Attorney General's office. Cruz was not the attorney of record on the case, and as solicitor general he was busy with other matters.

Just another Trumpism, worthy of Mr. Pecker's rag.
The late great Justice Scalia and Trump both grew up in Queens, New York.

Has Cruz stated that he was just following orders and he disagreed with the law?
What do you mean "just following orders? (Or is that another attempt to trap him with twisted words? "Just following orders" is a mite notorious considering the things that has been used as an excuse for).
He didn't work the case.
What part of "not his case" eludes you?
He didn't even sign off on it, his name appears on the Attorney General's Office letterhead, right along with everyone else who had a title in the office.
Read the Brief why dontcha?--or are you allergic to facts?
That doesn't mean he approved of the case, nor that he had anything to do with it. He was the Solicitor General of Texas at the time, and the attorney of record who signed the paperwork would have handled it.
Lots of great people came from NY and other liberal hell holes. I hate NY and NYC it’s called an opinion. I’m not a fan of liberal, progressive areas period.
Trump epitomizes everything bad that people say and think about politicians. No. Actually, he is much, much worse. An arrogant, narcissistic, ultra-ambitious, power-mad and dishonest, greedy sore-loser. And those are his good points.
If you will notice, Ronnie Earle’s name is also on that document. A Democrat POS if ever there was one. But funny how these Trump fans don’t have a problem with folks like Earl. No, the only smears worth doing are the ones against their non-Democrat opponents. Telling, isn’t it.
Oh, very.
New York has been supporting the southern states for years.
Did Cruz just do file the case because he was ordered to by the Gov or did he believe it was a good law. It’s a simple question. It was very well his case originating in his office.

I always considered NY state a sucker for supporting Southern Welfare states.

IS Earl running for president?Why would someone no one ever heard of be an issue?
It’s an area irrelevant to national politics because they vote the same no matter who the candidate is. Granted, Trump could be an exception because he’s a different breed, but if Cruz is the nominee, he’ll get the same number of northeast electoral votes whether he pisses on their legs or spends 4 months exclusively campaigning for their love. It’s been baked in since 1992 and isn’t going to change 9/10 times.
You maybe right for the general election, but you have to win the primary first. If you want to crap all over a certain part of the country, do it after July. This was a stupid and avoidable.
