“Cruz was born in Calgary, Alberta, Canada, where his parents, Eleanor Darragh and Rafael Cruz, were working in the oil business.[8][9] His father, in 1957 during the Cuban Revolution, was a Cuban immigrant to the United States.[10] His mother, an American, was reared in Delaware, in a family of Irish and Italian descent.[9][11] Cruz's family returned the U.S. when he was four years old”
JC Watts?? If that’s who you meant I totally agree. I miss J.C., he was a great politician. :)
Ted Cruz makes John Cornyn look like Kay Bailey Hutchinson!
I still can't believe how those two and the other forgettable idiot from Indiana p*ssed away perfectly winnable U.S. Senate seats. It is almost like the Democrat party paid them enough to take a dive.
Thankfully, La Raza Rick Perry didn’t get his way or Cruz would never have made his way to Washington, he would still be in Texas.
No, LOL, a different football player, JJ Watt. He broke records this season.

Just like JJ, Cruz is going to do his best not to let anything get past him.
JJ’s a really nice guy:

And the colateral damage they caused too, because then ya got the defenders showing that there is many more than one who believes stupid stuff.
There are still more than a few here who claim those should be our model candidates., one recently told me it is *our* fault they lost, if only *we* defended them better they nwould have won, not kidding.
Cornyn has always looked like Kay Barely Republican. What's interesting is that Cruz has shown such bright conservative light that Cornyn has had to move significantly to the right to be seen at all. This is good.
Exactly.
We need 50 more senators just like him.
Every now and then the voters get it right.
Texas and now America is lucky we found Ted Cruz!
Once other real conservatives see they can be real conservatives and survive, they will begin coming out of the woodwork.
Like Japan did at Pearl Harbor, the over-reaching liberals have awakened a sleeping giant with a terrible resolve.
First and foremost Cruz is a strong Constitution loving patriot. He will be the first recognize his lack of NBC.
Cruz does not need to be POTUS to be a good leader.
That’s OK, I’ll be happy when he’s the Majority Leader in the Senate.
He would do more than the last two Republican Gutless Wonders who came before him.
Ok, I feel totally stupid now. lol
I should have known that name. I’m starting to follow the Texans more now, since my Cowboys suck. :)
Didn’t Cruz just vote to let the Egyptian MB have those F-16’s?
Come on... Gov Goodhair really has done a hellofa lot better for Texas than ANY alternative.
The Constitution? I didn't know anyone still believed in following that old piece of paper. [Actually, if Cruz is not natural born citizen, I would not vote for him. I just didn't know he was born in Canada.] Was his father a US citizen when Cruz was born?
BUT, I must add, Perry was wrong on Cruz.
He didn’t have a good political option considering he needed to keep working with Deworst. Lucky he didn’t have much effect on the Cruz Primary.
Sell Out McConnell is up for re-election next year, so he is saying lots of things. He reminds me of a nerd version of McStain.
Senator Cruz watch your back you are in more danger from those in your party that claim to support and have your back than you are from obama, the democrats/media.
