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.”
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.
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.
Won't matter. The lie will persist that Cruz is lying.
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.
