I liked Cruz's line about "New York values" ... 

No one on Planet Earth can honestly believe that Ted Cruz was dissing New York over 9/11 ... 


I didn't like it, and I'm a huge Cruz fan. A lot of my friends back in Long Island, good hard-working Conservatives all, were pretty P.O'd about it.

Well....lets just take your point about margin loans.

Obviously, Cruz’s investment account is with Goldman. Mine is with TD Ameritrade. I too have used margin loans but I use them frequently. That loan comes from TD Bank. A Canadian Bank.

All this is smoke and mirrors.

The New York values quip that Cruz used is common in the South and Midwest. has zip to do with 9/11 and predates it by 100 years.

Somebody does not have a sense of humor, or, is full of shite.

I’ll let you figure out which. I already have.

In the Midwest and South of the country, it has been a long tradition to criticize NYC. Do you recall the ads on tv about the battle between the two major salsa companies?

New Yaaawk City!......BOOOOOOO

Midwesterners have been the but of jokes from NYC for years and the payback is well understood.

To make this about 9/11 is like pulling the race card to end a argument.

So, in closing, someone either has no sense of humor, or is giving me a wet willy.

No, Ted was playing good politics by trying to deflect the matter away from himself and onto Trump. Well, after 8 yrs of Obama, America is waking up and Cruz knows it and he let it get to him. It wasn’t just Ted’s words, it was hid demeanor and body language that gave him away.
