Ted Cruz Accuses Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Lying

[Stephanie]

I wonder what is wrong with this bank?

I also wonder why someone that wants our infrastructure to fall apart is so popular. If you don't like paying taxes in order to drive on good roads and bridges well be ready for our country to look like Haiti. Cruz sucks.

I wonder why idiots like you continue posting despite being put in your place at the Thanksgiving kids table

I think Mat has multiple personalities. and they are both very different. He's still likable enough.You just have to know which personality you're seeing that day. lol

Mitch McConnell's response to Ted Cruz's attack?
"Apparently" the same as when he was called to duty in Vietnam - cut&run.


In stunning attack, Cruz accuses leader McConnell of lying

"Not only what he told every Republican senator, but what he told the press over and over and over again, was a simple lie," Cruz said.

At issue were assurances Cruz claimed McConnell, R-Ky., had given that there was no deal to allow a vote to renew the federal Export-Import Bank — a little-known federal agency that has become a rallying cry for conservatives. Cruz rose to deliver his remarks moments after McConnell had lined up a vote on the Export-Import Bank for coming days.

"It saddens me to say this. I sat in my office, I told my staff the majority leader looked me in the eye and looked 54 Republicans in the eye. I cannot believe he would tell a flat-out lie," Cruz said.

"We now know that when the majority leader looks us in the eyes and makes an explicit commitment that he is willing to say things that he knows are false."

The majority leader was not on the Senate floor when Cruz issued his attack, and ignored reporters who tried to ask him about it in the Capitol's hallways. A spokesman said McConnell would have no response.

[The VOR]

they get more stupid everyday on this Trump thing.

You definitely are the authority when it comes to stupidity.

 

[longknife]

It's a pity no democrat had the balls to shit on Reid, as Ted does the Turtle. Way to go Ted!

What nobody is saying is that Reid and McConnel are in this together.

Good stuff!! Mitch McConnell is a dirty liar...

McConnell is so bad, he's almost a democrat.

Maybe Cruz is learning the value of having a spine from The Donald.

Cruz "had a spine" which is why the leftist and crony capitalist establishment sell outs hate him so much

He showed evidence of that by attacking McConnell. We need more of that.

From calling out leadership to defunding Obamacare, and Obama's executive amnesty. Ted Cruz and been doing what he should be doing before any Donald Trump joined the fight

Not really in the same way. Ted talks and says the right things but he's way too easy on the buttholes who try to attack him. That's why Trump is making news and Cruz is barely heard from.

Easy? he been getting pounded by his own party since he's been in the senate.. Ted is the man

 

[LordBrownTrout]

That's my clown! Making a mockery of the Senate. He's exceptionally presidential.

Cruz is right and he should be calling out liars. The senate is worthless anyway at this point.
