The NYT reports: One day after President Obama assailed the “political posturing” of Republicans who have called for barring Syrian refugees from entering the United States, Senator Ted Cruz responded: “Come back and insult me to my face.”
Cruz challenged Obama to a public debate on refugee policy, criticizing Obama for having made his remarks on a trip to Manila.
“I prefer it in the United States and not overseas, when you’re making the insults,” Mr. Cruz said. “It’s easy to toss a cheap insult where no one can respond.”
