Looking for one concrete reason for the pejoratives about Dewhurst.

Doo Hurst lies about Cruz in that Chinese tire manufacturing campaign ad.

Get the facts.

Truth: This lawsuit has not impacted even a single American manufacturing job. In the 1990s, long before Mr. Fishman filed the lawsuit that David Dewhurst is trying to use to to smear Ted Cruz, Fishman moved his entire mining tire manufacturing to China. Fishman decided two decades ago to use Chinese labor, not American labor, to manufacture tires.

Jargon, not judgement.

The ad - which only came out last month — tells the story of a company owned by an American, Jordan Fishman. You can hear Mr. Fishman’s story in an interview with Matt Patrick, here, https://www.youtube.com/v/6FMmEdLNDm0?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0

Mr. Fishman manufactures tires in China, but his distribution and sales are/were in the US. The parent company had employees paying taxes in the US. http://wp.me/p1FiCk-CA

The jury found the Dubai and Chinese companies “liable” for theft. Again, the Sarasota newspaper covered the results of the trial, and the judge’s affirmation of the jury’s verdict, in 2010. http://www.heraldtribune.com/article/20100728/ARTICLE/7281018?p=1&tc=pg
