Hmmm.. I dont see Cruz mentioned at all.
Seems he was just an employee in a firm of 1200 that took this case..

Cruz is the attorney of record and is responsible for the delaying tactics and appeal that are being used so the Chinese Commies masquerading as a corporation don’t have to pay the American who won the judgement against them for their thievery.

Sorry you are having such a hard time handling the truth.

David Dewhurst record of accomplishment as a conservative far exceeds Cruz’ five years in the appointed office of solicitor general.

My post was in reference to the judgment of AG Greg Abbott.

A few examples...



Greg Abbott vs. EPA

http://www.star-telegram.com/2012/03/28/3843472/epa-cant-reject-texas-air-quality.html

The EPA rejected Texas' rules on minor new-source review permits in September 2010, saying they didn't meet Clean Air Act requirements. The Texas attorney general, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce and businesses sued the EPA, challenging the ruling.

The EPA failed to identify any provisions of the law that the Texas program violated, the appeals court said. The agency also missed a deadline to rule on the Texas permit plan, the court said.

In a statement, Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said, "The EPA unlawfully disapproved a common-sense Texas air permitting program that fully complied with the federal Clean Air Act and reduced harmful emissions."



Greg Abbott vs. Planned Parenthood

http://www.onenewsnow.com/Legal/Default.aspx?id=1589116

Charlie Butts - OneNewsNow - 5/1/2012 11:05:00 AM

A federal appeals court has blocked an order by a federal judge in Austin, Texas, to resume funding Planned Parenthood.

Texas' legislature voted last year to block use of tax dollars for medical services for poor women for any organization associated with abortion -- meaning Planned Parenthood lost funding. On Monday, U.S. District Judge Lee Yeakel, a George W. Bush appointee, ordered the state to resume funding Planned Parenthood, saying there is sufficient evidence that the law banning the abortion-provider from the state's Women's Health Program is unconstitutional.

But Joe Poyman of the Texas Alliance for Life tells OneNewsNow the state (AG Greg Abbott) appealed that order and won.

"The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals has just intervened and stayed that judge's order," he informs, "and the policy now will go into effect -- meaning that as of today, May 1, the Medicaid Women's Health Program dollars will not go to Planned Parenthood."

The Fifth Circuit's order remains in effect pending outcome of the case.



Greg Abbott Sues Feds to Get Voter ID Implemented

http://permianbasin360.com/fulltext?nxd_id=161492

The Texas attorney general’s office today filed suit against U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice to have the state’s controversial voter ID law implemented without further delay.

“The U.S. Supreme Court has already ruled that voter identification laws are constitutional,” Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said in a prepared statement. “Texas should be allowed the same authority other states have to protect the integrity of elections. To fast-track that authority, Texas is taking legal action in a D.C. court seeking approval of its voter identification law.”





Yeah, I'm going to stick with exactly what I said.

And I threw in a few recent examples of why.

If Mr. Cruz is such a low life I believe Greg would have "corrected" the problem. Apparently, AG Abbott seems to think highly of Ted.

And it looks like other folks think the same thing about Ted.

They say things things like this...

He is the youngest Solicitor General in the United States, and had the longest tenure in the post thus far in Texas history. He is currently a partner at the law firm Morgan, Lewis & Bockius, where he leads the firm’s U.S. Supreme Court and national appellate litigation practice.

Cruz also served as a law clerk to William Rehnquist, then-Chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court,

Cruz has authored more than eighty briefs before the United States Supreme Court and presented forty-three oral arguments, including nine before the United States Supreme Court.

In the landmark case of District of Columbia v. Heller, Cruz assembled a coalition of thirty-one states in defense of the principle that the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms.[12] Cruz also presented oral argument for the amici states in the companion case to Heller before the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.

In addition to his victory in Heller, Cruz has successfully defended the Ten Commandments monument on the Texas State Capitol grounds, the recitation of the Pledge of Allegiance in public schools and the 2003 Texas redistricting plan.[13]

Cruz also successfully defended, in Medellin v. Texas, the State of Texas against an attempt by the International Court of Justice to re-open the criminal convictions of 51 murderers on death row throughout the United States

In reviewing this thread I see you are parroting the "Chinese" story and providing nothing else.



That is not a game changer, champ.

Yeah, whatever sport.

I see there is not a thing you have to refute about what Cruz is up to as a leader teaching the Chinese legal strategy, and helping them get away with their thievery, because you know it is the truth.

And, you know it is Cruz who has been attacking Dewhurst, a good conservative with a lifetime conservative record of leadership, executive experience, military experience, private productive business, and legislative experience.

Ngat, are you still trying to deceive people about Cruz?

Cruz said that he worked on the appellate brief, so he is the Counsel of Record on the brief. He did not argue the case and is not the lead lawyer. The "American Manufacturer" in question actually has his tires manufactured in China and is also appealing the case, so that's 2 more Dewhurst distortions.

Contrast this with the case that Ted successfully ARGUED before the Supreme Court representing a U.S. patent holder against a Chinese company in a case defining the proper standard of intent for inducement to infringe a patent in Global Tech v. SEB, but I suppose filling out those briefs is much more important to you.

You can find other cases at:

You are guilty of doing exactly what you have accused others of here in trying to tear down the other candidate. Dewhurst is a decent man if you can look past his current deceptions and will likely be a Party Line vote which is an improvement over KBH.

Ted Cruz just happens to be the better candidate in this race because he will stand against the party when they are wrong in the politics-as-usual expansion of government.

Oh.

You are offended that after I nicely tried to show you how Dewhurst is the candidate in the race with a lifetime of leadership, entrepeneurial productivity in the private sphere, executive experience in the private and public sphere, legislative experience etc. as opposed to Cruz who has but litigation skills in court, all you could come back with was a groundless assertion of the opposite of the factual qualities of Lt. Governor Dewhurst.

When you did that, it was obvious your mind was made up, and no matter what the reality of the two candidates qualifications and suitability to be a U.S. Senator representing Texas actually are, you were not prepared mentally to be able to reconsider. So, pointing out your cluelessness at that point was a favor to you.

Just consider the irony that your decision to back Cruz is based on your admiration for his ability to frame arguments and litigate them and convince people who are on the opposite side of an argument (I guess we will ignore the fact that at least theoretically a case that makes it to the Supreme Court does not boil down to a contest between you and a group of judges who are on the opposite side of your argument), yet when you are presented with evidence, you are unable to process and consider it, and you claim that the very qualities that Dewhurst has proven throughout his life to have, i.e. leadership, initiative, and being a take-charge kind of guy are the the reasons you are going to vote for Crus who has not proven to have those qualities at all!

If you think calling someone “clueless” is being nice then you need to think long and hard about what being Nice is.
and it isn’t insulting people.
buh bye

Hellooo. Refer to the first post I sent you which was very nice and respectful, then you knee-jerked out your clueless post, which consisted of inane unsupported insults directed at Dewhurst, instead of considering the facts and responding respectfully.

Thanks for letting everyone know what the Cruz Crew is made up of.
