I watched most of Tuesday’s debate and listened to the rest driving home.
Here are the two zingers that I thought were noteworthy.
======
The first was Ted Cruz on illegal immigration
After ranting about how insulted he was that some folks say he’s anti-immigrant, he quipped:
“When the mainstream media covers illegal immigration they do not see it as an economic issue, but I can tell that for millions of Americans watching this [debate] at home it is a very personal economic issue.
Things would be reported differently if the jobs being threatened by illegal immigration were those that hit a little closer to the pocketbooks of disinterested parties.
I will say, the politics of it would be very, very different if a bunch of lawyers or bankers were crossing the Rio Grande.
Or if a bunch of people with journalism degrees were coming over and driving down the wages in the press.
Then we would see stories about the economic calamity that is befalling our nation.”
Nicely put, Ted
But, my overall favorite was from Rand Paul.
