“Cruz is a Zealot, and has turned into Obama’s and Hellary’s alter ego. He may be turning into one of those women who hears the devil say drown your children.”
There certainly are very dark forces at play in the whole Cruz-Beck-Carly-GOPe alliance, and Beck is inadvertently warning those who will listen about how “desperate” they are.
To: Rational Thought
You deliberately posted an article which has been debunked by the Cruz campaign and the facts. Mike Carvin was Boehner’s lawyer, not Ted Cruz. Just because drunk Boehner says it, doesn’t make it fact. I doubt Boehner can remember what happened almost 20 years ago.
A quote from the Cruz campaign: “It is false and misleading to describe Ted Cruz as having been ‘John Boehner’s lawyer.’ When Cruz was a young lawyer, his boss (Mike Carvin) was hired to be Boehner’s lawyer in one case. Cruz worked as a junior associate on that case, but he doesn’t remember even meeting Boehner, much less ever having had a substantive conversation with him.”

Poor example of “journalism”.

Exactly, who would have believed the day FR would side with Boehner.

Why confuse folks with facts? It is odd, though. I remember when Boner was unpopular on FR. Now his opinion of Cruz is significant. Seems to me one might as well ask if Hillary likes Cruz.

More like did research and drafted briefs as part of a team. No way was he lead council and the face of the firm. You know this how? Cruz has a life long history of making himself front and center of all things. I do not like Boehner any more than I like Cruz... But Boehner does not have a history of lying. When Boehner took that gavel from Nanny Pewlouise, Boehner flat out said he was NOT changing Nanny Pewlouise's rules. Cruz on the other hand distorts everything.

Nothing deliberate about it.
It has been widely reported that Cruz was Private Counsel to Boehner. Boehner has confirmed.
Guess it comes down to whom you wish to believe.

The lie will persist that Cruz is lying.

I doubt Boehner can remember what happened almost 20 years ago.One would think Cruz could remember a big shot Washington DC guy from the Hill. But then he couldn't remember he was Canadian. I remember 20 years ago. I remember 40 years ago. I remember shaking hands with LBJ and seeing his belly button as he was out on his ranch working on the irrigation system. I remember Nixon and JFK. I remember eating breakfast in my highchair and watching Truth or Consequences and To Tell the Truth... which Cruz can't seem to do.
