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.
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.
Follow the money ...
? 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.
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.
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.
