In a fiery opening statement at Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson's Supreme Court confirmation hearing, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) raked Democrats over the coals for their "explicitly racial" treatment of Republican judicial nominees.

Like several of his colleagues, Cruz pledged that Republicans would not turn the process into a "political circus," making pointed comments about how, "this will not be the kind of character smear that sadly our Democratic colleagues have gotten very good at."

Cruz then went on the describe the horrible treatment Justice Thomas endured as a black man seeking the office, as Thomas described it as a high tech lynching. Then he went into how Kavanaugh was treated.

Cruz told the nominee, "Judge Jackson, I can assure you that your hearing will feature none of that disgraceful behavior," Cruz said. "No one is going to inquire into your teenage dating habits. No one is going to ask you with mock severity, 'Do you like beer?'"

Cruz went on to say the Judiciary Committee has a "responsibility to focus on issues, to focus on your record, to focus on substance."

"It's not about race," Cruz added. "We will see Democrats and the media suggest that any senator that is skeptical of your nomination, that questions you vigorously, or that dares to vote against you must somehow harbor racial animus."

Interestingly, Cruz brought up the fact that Senator Kennedy once declined a nominee based on the fact they were a conservative Hispanic.

"The senior Democrats on this committee also filibustered Miguel Estrada, as the staff for [then-]Sen. Ted Kennedy [(D-Mass.)] said in writing at the time ... 'because he is Hispanic,'" Cruz said.

But all of this is lost on democrats because they are the scum of the earth and see no problem on how Republican nominees were treated or the hypocrisy of their past In fact, they probably want them treated worse or maybe even killed.

Watch, Republicans will go after her actual judicial philosophy (based on her case history) and will be called racist, sexist, and a few other "ists" just for good measure.

If Cruz was aware of any sexual assault allegations against Jackson, I am sure he would bring them up

He made it clear that Senator Joe Biden was on the committees that created the term 'Borked', fought Justice Thomas nomination, etc.

Fled Cruz came back from Cancun to be at the nominations? Wow good for him!

Cause who goes somewhere warm when its freezing outside?

 

[Auld Phart]

If Cruz was aware of any sexual assault allegations against Jackson, I am sure he would bring them up

 

[rightwinger]

What actual official duties did Cruz miss doing while he was away during that time?

His duty to care that the people of Texas were freezing and suffering due to power outages

Screw you, I got money, I’m getting the hell out of here…..too damned cold

Screw you, I got money, I’m getting the hell out of here…..too damned cold

He has no actual duties, he's a Elected Senator at the federal level with zero responsibilities for disaster response at the State level, and no power to do anything during said disasters.

What could have been different if he stayed in Texas?

No criminal or professional charges were filed against Senator Cruz

He is only answerable to his constituents for his indifference to their suffering

Why bring up "charges"?

It was a smear attempt, and a pretty shallow one.

Only progs remember this, he will easily win re-election in 2024.

Cancun Cruz doesn't lay out anyone but his own wife, his father, and his daughters................under the bus.

Cancun Cruz doesn't lay out anyone but his own wife, his father, and his daughters................under the bus.

Are you accusing him of spousal and child abuse?

 

[rightwinger]

What could have been different if he stayed in Texas?

Texas could have had a Senator who showed compassion for those in Texas with no electricity and freezing.
He could have shared in their suffering instead of saying ….screw you guys, I got a beach in Mexico with my name on it

It was a “Let em eat cake“ response from a politician

It did not go over well with Texas voters
That is why he got his ass home so quick

Cancun Cruz doesn't lay out anyone but his own wife, his father, and his daughters................under the bus.

Just because he has an ugly wife, a father who killed JFK and daughters who force him to take vacations during a power outage is not his fault

 

[rightwinger]

Why bring up "charges"?

It was a smear attempt, and a pretty shallow one.

Only progs remember this, he will easily win re-election in 2024.

A smear from Texas voters who were outraged their Senator skipped out for a warmer climate?

Cruz did not come running back because Progressives were laughing at him, he came back because Texas voters were critical of his indifference

Compassion and a power outage gets you a power outage.

Only the twitterverse was "outraged"

I don't see his approval numbers suffering due to it.

He doesn’t have very high approval numbers

Cruz’s political handlers got a hold of him in Cancun and told him to get his ass home

Ted Cruz Faces Heat From Texas Voters After Cancún Getaway

The latest surveys, conducted Feb. 19-28, found 43% of Texas voters approve of Cruz and 48% disapprove – a reversal of his standing in polls conducted Feb. 9-18. Pictures posted to social media on Feb. 17 revealed he was traveling to Cancún, which sparked a public outcry that forced him to...

Do you actually take Ted Cruz seriously?
