If that's legit, then very nice ... especially the line: "In the future, I would ask that you might keep your efforts to diminish the Bill of Richards north of the Red River."
BUT as far as a new Uncle Ted ... There is only THE Uncle Ted.

Yall.. Hes cousin Ted! Theres only one..
Theres already a thread on this but it is indeed real. He posted it on his official facebook page and has talked about it on TV too. I have high hopes for him for sure. Personally I think hes grooming himself for 2016, hes hispanic so he will get some of that vote and is being a very staunch conservative thus far which will revive the weak conservative enthusiasm we saw for Romney(for good reason).
He is a Canadian by birth, and a Texan by virtue of residence. He has not replied to my many correspondences. Until he does, he remains an untested freshman Senator who likes to take pot shots at more unpopular politicians in the pursuit of distracting his constituents from his true intentions. Never trust a politician; they manipulate popular opinion to attain the favor of special interests they are bought off to obey.

? Please provide information to back up your claims. I know where he was born and much els. In keeping an eye on him, I see what he's doing that is positive. How is he manipulating popular opinion? What do you suppose are his true intentions?
He was born in Canada but to two Americans who were there working so he is a dual citizen, the rest of shortrounds post is pretty well off-base IMO.
Happy to answer your post.
Cruz jumped to prominence two years ago when we never heard of him. He jumped on the Tea-Party band wagon with nothing other than having fought the Federal Government on behalf of Texas.
He was not born, raised or educated in Texas. He's another phony Ivy League transplant.
He did a stint as Solicitor General for the State, but has no true roots to the State.
He is a career public servant (that is, he never earned an honest dollar), and he duped the Texas Tea Party. He is no different from Hillary Clinton who moved to New York to be a Senator.
We are so dumbed down, that we deserve whatever we get.
Just bend over, you will get more of we have gotten time after time.
Ok, so let's say that what you are saying, is true without any exceptions. He is still doing positive things in and for Texas. Why is that a bad thing? He is clearly a very intelligent senator with convictions and the balls to stand for them. Why should that be overlooked? And I wouldn't consider myself dumbed down. I spend most to all of my time educating myself through resources including perspective and debate. I may not be all knowing as I am sure you are not. I'm not the kind of guy that's sits on my ass, careless of what is going on in my country so I don't believe I deserve what is, unfortunately, coming to us.
Ill go with the whole "actions speak louder than words" mantra. I dont think we will ever find a congressman who will embody all the traits we like but thus far everything Ive seen him do is right inline with what I want him to do and more that I didnt even think of like the letter to Rahm. Im just a dumb sheeple though in your eyes I suppose.

Thus far he has earned my respect and support, I like that he has been outspoken and straight forward. From what I've seen, heard and read of him he's doing a great job being the voice of the vast majority of Texans. With that being said aside from the good he's doing now, he's still a politician.
And here is Ted talking to The Committee.

You just gotta love the guy! Go ted! I'm proud that I voted for him!
I'm satisfied that his opponent would have lined up with the other butt sniffers.
