Dewhurst Again Cites Chinese Firm in Targeting Cruz
After a rocky appearance at the Republican state convention this weekend, David Dewhurst came out swinging against Ted Cruz, suggesting Monday that Cruz doesn’t have the character to become a U.S. senator.
Once again, it was Cruz’s involvement in a patent case — pitting a Chinese company against a U.S. inventor — that drove Dewhurst to unload on his opponent. Dewhurst dipped into his vast personal fortune to finance TV attack ads on the topic before the May 29 primary, but the lieutenant governor still wound up in a runoff with the former Texas solicitor general.
Now Dewhurst ...

I don't buy a thing that comes from Dewhurst's mouth...he's lock-step with Rick Perry who has already screwed Texans with 11th hour legislation passed in 2007 stripping water and mineral rights away for that Trans-Texas Corridor atrocity...which still continues, but piece-meal so voters don't realize the bait and switch...

i think Dewhurst is just pissed because Cruz has a private sector job that pays his salary, as opposed to government titty baby Dewnothing...i could be wrong, but i don't think so...

It is really a non-issue. Cruz was doing his job with the law firm that employed him. It's not as though he PERSONALLY sued the American party.

Memo to Dewhurst - TEA party votes - Get your votes out or suffer the consequences Dick Lugar did and Deb Fischer accomplished proving strength, money and organization of the TEA Party. Dewhurst, you are fighting big money influences out side Texas who want control of the Republican party. Ron and Rand Paul who openly voiced their bigotry and prejudice by saying, “The revolution is working, we have infiltrated the Republican Party, and we will convert the Republican Party to defenders of liberty.” Because it is hard to differentiate between one who uses the (R) or the (T), and as such to better serve the people of Texas, I suggest voting for the one with the (D) behind his name. Vote straight Democratic Ticket!

Dewhurst looks mor pathetic and desperate every time he opens his big mouth. If he was smart he'd keep it shut and try to ride his name recognition to a victory.

Dewhurst just keeps digging the hole deeper. Doesn't he understand that this whole Chinese thing has been exposed as a lie of gargantuan proportions and every time he slams Ted the more determined we are to keep the lying little spook out of Eashington?
