Ted Cruz Ping! Ted Cruz Ping! Full Title:
Matthews Interviews Ted Cruz on ‘Hardball’, Presses Him on Chuck Hagel Scrutiny, Bush v. Gore Decision
Don’t these miserable enemedia sons-of-biches understand that the more that they go after these people, the more that we will SUPPORT them?!?!
Cruz is fearless, well prepared on a wide range of topics and unshakable.
Can’t wait to see him at the debate Aug 6.
I stand with Ted
Wonder if Chris will be as tough on Hillary or Whomever the libs pin their hopes on?
I hope Chrissy didn't get too much spittle on Ted.
I have yet to find anybody who gives a sh*t about anything Pissy Matthews says about anything. He is a stammering, alcoholic embarrassment.
I would almost watch MSNBC to see that...almost...
Don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone ruffle Cruz’s feathers. Not sure it can be done...Reading this reminds me of the interview where the guy kept asking him about his stance on gay rights and Cruz finally asked him why he had such a fixation on sex...calmly and with a smile...I can’t remember the rest but it was classic Cruz, he pretty much hammered the guy without a harsh word and never raised his voice, calm as could be.
That’s why both Democrats and Republicans are scared sh!tless of Cruz in a debate. I don’t think anyone but maybe Trump can keep up with him in a debate...and Trump would have a hard time. Cruz comes to the table with a ton of facts in his head, never gets flustered, keeps his cool...and he’s really intelligent. And don’t fool yourself into thinking Trump is not just as smart...
There's nothing I like about the creep. He constantly interrupts and he's more partisan than even Steppinalloverus.
I'm don't consider myself to be a violent person but if I happened across him in a dark alley I'd really have a hard time resisting the urge to kick his a$$.
Can’t stand Matthews but just a little gentle advice to Ted, don’t be critisizing a veteren with 2 purple hearts when you’ve never served yourself.
First, as noted, the finding against the recount Gore demanded [specific, cherry picked counties and not the whole state] was not smacked down by just the conservatives. The decision was 7-2, not 5-4 as so many people often claim.
Second, the 5-4 ruling of the court on the specific question of whether the recount could be done within the safe harbor limitations of the Constitution was a very narrow finding. As we now know, it would not have mattered even if the court had permitted a statewide recount.
Third, and by far more important, the Conservatives on the court were not the hypocrites; the liberals were. In the opinion, the Conservatives did not make their argument on the basis of the Fourteenth Amendment: the two concurring liberals and weathervanes O'Connor and Kennedy did. But the two dissenting liberals made their argument on the basis of states rights. Neither of the two "states rights" champions on the bench had ever founded a decision in Federalism before Bush vs. Gore, and they have never so ruled since then.
Hypocrites on the Court? Yes. But not Rehnquist, Scalia, or Thomas.
Fourth and finally, the US Supreme Court did NOT actually make the final determination of when the recount had to be completed or under what circumstances. They remanded that decision to be made by the Florida Supreme Court, which finally got the message that they were not going to be given unlimited leeway in thwarting the will of the voters of Florida. But it was ultimately a decision made by the Florida Supreme Court as to how to wrap up the case.
Gore, realizing that he could not win if the recount went beyond his four favorite counties, threw in the towel at the state court at that point.
There was a real chance here to explode a number of Hissy's favorite liberal myths.
So, in your opinion, Hagel’s service entitled him to accept a $200,000 cash gift from a foreign government without the least bit of criticism or investigation?
Hagel could take lessons from the Clintons on taking foreign money, and Cruz is right. In both cases, we should be very concerned as to where the money comes from and why it was given. So far, the Clintons have managed to change the subject to how unfair it is for people to want information on why they (the Clintons) got the foreign money and why Sec of State then did their bidding.
Thanks for posting the transcript and your comments, SCP!
I don’t believe my TV knows what MSNBC is...
If you've read Clinton Cash or just remember their shenanigans from the last time around, you know this entire family is a bunch of criminals. Clearly they've sold influence, and in some cases that influence either has, or will eventually be detrimental to the United States.
Hillary will try to play the victim card to avoid responsibility, and shouldn't get away with it any more than Hagel did, even if his excuses were better.

I seem to remember a large cash “gift” from China to Clinton when he was POTUS that resulted in China getting a lot of high tech data that has moved them into being a world power.
