Sen. said Monday that only smeared potential justices, as he assured Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson that her hearings this week wouldn't feature any 'disgraceful behavior' from Republicans. 'This will not be a political circus. This will not be the kind of character smear that, sadly, our Democratic colleagues have gotten very good at,' Cruz pledged. 'No one is going to inquire into your teenage dating habits. No one is going to ask you with mock severity, "Do you like beer?"' Cruz pointed to Judge Robert Bork's confirmation battle in the 1980s - which Bork lost - as well as those for Justices Clarence Thomas and Brett Kavanaugh, all nominees picked by Republican presidents.
