More good things about Ted Cruz....
Old news, but I just came across this today.

Didn't realize Mr Cruz played such a big role in Heller & McDonald.

The National Rifle Association announced today that leading Second Amendment advocate Ted Cruz, the former Solicitor General of Texas, is the 2010 recipient of the Harlon B. Carter-George S. Knight Freedom Fund award. The announcement comes as the U. S. Supreme Court announced its historic decision in the McDonald v. Chicago case. Cruz’s efforts in defense of gun rights played a significant role in laying the groundwork for that major victory.

For over a decade, Cruz has been instrumental in many significant legal battles in the fight to preserve the Second Amendment. He is perhaps best known for his work with the NRA on the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case, District of Columbia v. Heller. During that effort, Cruz assembled an impressive coalition of 31 diverse states behind an amicus brief in which he defended the individual right to keep and bear arms and argued that the Second Amendment should be binding on every state and local government.

No, it doesn't escape them. They just lack the gene for shame.
