When assassins have higher ethical standards than your husband...yikes!

Shonda Rhimes just found her next tv series idea. Changes include heroine having a passionate affair with the kidnapper who’s the jerk with a heart of gold.

she’s also received threats from and been ostracized by some members of her community for reporting Kalala to the police.

Don’t you know that if a former SCt clerk so much as thinks about your matter, he gets to charge a quarter million?

Oooh, I feel you! After he left Texas, he worked in the office of the large DC law firm where I worked. I can’t tell the story because it might out me but within days of arriving he established that he was such a greedy, arrogant, shitty human being that I came home from work and told my husband I wanted to punch that…

I had professional interaction with that scumbag while he was at Morgan Lewis. We hired him as appellate counsel due to his political ties on a big-money case that had gone off the rails. I wrote the fucking brief myself and he billed our client $250k for something like a week’s work, next to none of which was done by…

Wait this is a great story

but here is the thing, if EVERYONE was an asshole at that age, then if someone is noticably MORE of an asshole than everyone else at that age, then it’s saying something.

I know two people who have pasts with Ted Criz—one of his law school classmates and a former law firm partner. The law school classmate is firmly in Team Craig. She can’t stand him. The former law partner is too diplomatic to say either way, but I suspect is Team Craig too.

He was a partner in the Houston office of my law firm prior to running for Congress. Despite being largely conservative and Republican, everyone in the office (and the firm, generally) loathed him, so much so that to this day, no one wants to use his former office. It’s considered tainted.

I thought this was Craig, but it was some other guy, who had worked with him on the Bush 2000 campaign, who was quoted anonymously in a New York Times article:

Ted Cruz is that one guy on a night out who refused to get the bus with everyone else, and you’re stuck waiting around for him at the pub before the club for so long that you fuck off to the club (you call/text him and he doesn’t call back), only to get continuous texts with variations of “Where r u?” that you don’t…

An 18 year old TC in that getup. Scrawny legs and all. GROSS.

I think Ted Cruz has a likability problem. I’ve read MSM articles about his abrasive personality and the dislike he inspires in colleagues. I think its a real thing.

God bless (and simultaneously damn) the person who made this:

I’m not sure I really get what you’re saying here. Should people in the 1950’s not have commented on what a gigantic asshole McCarthy was because, you know, he’ll burn himself out eventually?

I don’t know, he’s had to see Cruz’s name all over the news this whole time. I have a particularly vile former roommate that after a few years of hate I’ve graduated to a semi-zen “I wish her well, and far away” POV, but if she had a political following constantly Tweeting about how she was the smartest person in the…

I’m with grapeslick. Its a very subtle difference but you can pick up on the difference between someone who is just completely bitterly hating on someone and someone who is doing it for fun. I think Mazin is the latter for sure.

FUCKIN CRAIG, LOVE THAT GUY

I vote no, because he keeps his sense of humor throughout.
