Cruz Retreats To Fox News To Offer A Little Contrition For Cancun Trip | Talking Points Memo

Think so? He managed to get a police escort to the airport in the middle of a weather disaster. Jumping a line of mere mortals is child’s play for Raffie.

Obviously a mistake.

To someone with a brain and conscience, yes.

That aged particularly well.

I know a right wing guy whose brother committed suicide some years ago and when I offered my condolences he explained best as he knew how: He was weak.

They all wanna be like T****, you see. But to be like T****, you have to have ZERO conscience. ZERO shame. NONE. And only true sociopaths are like that.

Like Giuliani.
Perhaps like Hawley.

Whether or not Cruz is a true sociopath, we shall see…

Yeah, that kind of crap I’ve heard. They said it to the Israelites after the complaints about no straw to make the bricks with.

I use it often with my kids. :smirk: Coincidentally (or ironically, as Alanis Morissette might put it) I picked it up from a Texan I work with. He’s one of those guys who’s got a thousand of them. I love those guys.

Maybe it’s because I’m an animal person and I already considered Ted Cruz slime.
But one of things that bothers me most about all this, is that they left their dog behind to fend for itself.152231424_10157820997957023_7982281623484045884_n

When the person who wrote that got out of their car to check, a security person at Cruz’s home indicated that he was caring for the dog. I don’t believe the pet was left to fend for itself.

Thanks- at least Cruz cares about his dog. Redeemable?

“In my, er my kids’ defense, it wasn’t even the nicest resort and they didn’t even have an infinity pool, and the tacos weren’t definitely not bueno, and I forced my kids to drink the local water, and I think one of them got a little sick. That’s almost as bad as what happened to my great great fellow Texans.”
