Ted Cruz: Mainstream Media Like 'Timid,' 'House-Trained' Republicans
Breitbart ^ | 26, July 2013 | Tony Lee

On Thursday, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) blistered the mainstream media for favoring Republicans who are docile and trained to parrot policy positions Democrats prefer.

“There are a lot of Democrats and folks in the media who like their Republicans timid and house-trained to just sit quietly in the corner, to accept losing, and to stand for nothing," Cruz said on Sean Hannity's radio show. Cruz said Americans are fed up with such Republicans who are no different from Democrats and offer no alternative.

Hannity said Cruz was not one of those "house-trained" Republicans, and that is why the mainstream media is attacking him. He said Democrats and the mainstream media fear Cruz because he is a "strong conservative," 'knows the law," is articulate and an intellectual. Hannity said that is a "combination" they "fear."

Somewhere, John McCain and Lindsey Graham are seething at the inherent truth of this statement. Spittle will fly and a purse will be thrown.

Cruz is clearly getting on the nerves of the DC beltway media feeders, the Marxists in Congress and the McCain-Graham RINO block.

This is a good thing.

Or Majority Leader, although with all of the House-pets, that's unlikely.

Me too. It will be ironic to the max if the Obama precedent with regards to NBC status enables Senator Cruz to run for the top office.

They're boxed in. If they bring it up, it will show that they know what they are.

One of a handful of actual conservatives in the Senate. A great guy, and I’m sorry he has to run as a republican.
