Via Politico:

Sen. Ted Cruz is responding to the news that some of his GOP colleagues wanted Chris Wallace to hammer him in an interview, with the Texas Republican saying that they are afraid of anything that �changes the clubby way Washington does business.�

�I mean folks can do whatever they want to resist change, and there are a lot of people that have been in Washington a long time that are fearful of change. They�re fearful of risk, they�re fearful of anything that changes the clubby way Washington does business,� Cruz said Monday on Fox New�s �Hannity.�

After an interview with Cruz aired on �Fox News Sunday,� Wallace said he received �unsolicited research and questions� from Republicans after a week of criticism toward Cruz and the strategy to defund Obamacare. �This has been one of the strangest weeks I�ve ever had in Washington, and I say that because as soon as we listed Ted Cruz as our featured guest this week, I got unsolicited research and questions not from Democrats, but from top Republicans who � to hammer Cruz,� Wallace said.

Senator Cruz should know better than to promulgate the unsourced lies of the leftist media.

Jeesh, what a rookie.

Yeah. He should just sit on his ass and leave these stories fester until they are taken as true like Boner and Tippy Turtle routinely do. Great idea. Maybe in a pinch, go to one of Sally Quinns cocktail parties to show the MSM you are really a swell guy.

What bugs you is that Cruz is taking this story line, true or not, and turning it around to destroy the ruling class by calling them out. This is genius.

I can't help but remember how Geo W never responded to criticism. It was his understanding of Jesus' command to 'turn the other cheek' evidently. Right from the start when they gouged out all the W's on the White House keyboards, he remained mum. He refused to go after Bill Clinton's staff animals when they violated the dignity of the office. Bill and Hillary helped themselves to White House items that were supposed to remain. Geo W remains mum.

How'd that work for him? It didn't.

His supporters desperately wanted him to defend himself more vigorously and point out what was false about the lies being spread about him. Not a peep. Recall how "Bush Lied and People Died" ? went unchallenged and what ended up happening is Bush Himself Died while the Dems Lied.
Recall how they castigated him for his slow reaction time when told of the original 911 attack while reading to kids? "eight or nine minutes of lingering" that's what we all heard. If it wasn't true Bush himself never denied it.

So we have someone here with Cruz, who knows when and how to address a situation. Good For Him! Keep it Up!!! He was asked a question and he answered it.

What leftist lies? Cedric you think Chris Wallace is a lying lefty? Any way of proving that? It seems like you are the dreamer here and we know you to be the one who tows the party line every single time.

So really, this knee jerk responding happens so many times, who really takes what you come up with as serious thinking?

The bureaucracy: the new fourth branch of government. The bureaucracy is permanent, unaccountable, unelected and choking us like a weed. The bureaucrat exists, generating nothing of value, using perceived problems to justify his existence.

You wanna believe anonymous allegations, go ahead.

You wanna defend Chris Wallace, go ahead.

You wanna fancy yourself a serious thinker, go ahead.

Soon enough they'll have a vote and other guys will tell us how effective Cruz was in "addressing the situation".

Right now, he'll be lucky if he gets 30 votes.

No, Cruz has actually put his GOP colleagues in a position where they can't do what Cruz wants and still vote to defund Obamacare.

Rookies....

And quit telling me what I'm saying....you've never gotten it right.

This isn't true.

Bush wrote "Decision Points". He also sent his surrogates, Andrew Card and Ari Fleisher out on FOX News to give interviews about what happened while Bush was at the school in Florida. The two of them countered the argument that the president lingered and did nothing. They explained what happened at the school, and what the president learned from Washington and his staff on scene at the school who could tell him what they knew about the attack. He was not reading to the children doing nothing.

That the left hammered on at this is not unusual.

Mostly, I thought there were a few women had lost loved ones who had to blame Bush to make themselves feel better. I doubt it worked for them.

Cruz isn't doing this simply for the votes. He's doing this so that the public will see him arguing against the status quo. He thinks it's worth the political risk.

I remember #StandwithRand.
