So apparently, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Rep. Peter King (R-NY2) are in some sort of petty pre-GOP Presidential Primary bitchfight, and in the process turned CNN into their Burn Book.
On the Situation Room, Wolf Blitzer played a clip of some comments Cruz made last night to Erin Burnett — in which Cruz essentially called King an irrelevant basic bitch — and then asked King if he’d like to respond.
“Sure, why not?” King said, and then went off on how he was queen bee of the GOP and that Cruz better check himself.
“Maybe if he had listened to me over the years, he’d be a little smarter,” King said. “I was, I think, the third-highest Republican on national television shows last year. I’m on your show all the time.” So in the congressman’s universe, influence is directly correlated with how often you appear on cable news and/or Sunday talk shows.
“That shows he’s not watching you, Wolf, so I think you should go after Cruz for not watching you,” he added, and Wolf awarded King Wolf Points.

Didn't Cruz just say he doesn't know Peter King and never heard of him until he started blasting Cruz. This idiot writer is suggesting he said something else.
Maybe he doesn’t know him, but never heard of him? Considering he is it the forefront of RINOism? I cannot buy that. If Cruz said that it was sarcastically.
“I’m the 3rd stooge of the three stooges-Graham,McCain and me”
Peter...Peter...Pumpkin Eater!
Peter King can’t put a full sentence together. I don’t know what backroom deals he has cut to get to his leadership position, but he is not the sharpest tool.
For him to think he is Presidential material (strike that.. if he thinks he has a snowball’s chance of winning any primary), shows how out of touch he is.
On week, he slams Obama, the next week he is his biggest supporter, usually slyly indicating he as super secret information he can’t share. He is sooooo important!
Oh. Just. Jeez.
Ted Cruz took office in 2013. Peter King probably started blasting him immediately. Hence maybe Cruz hadn't heard of him before. Cruz is a Senator and probably doesn't pay a whole lot of attention to Representatives.
LOL! Okay, Norm,'fess up...who's funnelling the money to you?
*Glancing at MY paycheck and slipping it unobtrusively into a pocket*
"So either Cruz is an Obama supporter like many here are said to be, or the Freeper RINO Left is lying about the rest of us. It cannot be both ways."
I have as much use for RINOS as I have for smallpox, so there's my position.
We're still pretty far out and they're popping out of the walls. Wait 'til we get closer to election time. Wheee!
You cannot honestly believe a federal pol has not heard of another federal pol that lives on Television spouting liberalism can you?
I always rathe rliked Peter King. I wished other rinos would belike him. But, when he suddenly became pro amnesty that ended that. Ilike the other (Steve) King better.
Well it isn’t anyone on the left and isn’t anyone on the right. Here’s the final hint...It ain’t anyone between them either. Whether I can be bought off or not, well no one ever tried but I am willing to entertain 7 figure numbers and a time machine. Other than that, I’ll stay a freelance vile and evil purist.
Now if someone comes through on the deal...well...See you in 1980!
So who’s one and two?
I’m quite surprised that Cruz would use the words, “irrelevant basic bitch”. I’ve never known Cruz to use such language .. even when he’s irritated .. in fact, I’ve seen him do just the opposite - practically shut down and just let the other guy make a complete ass of himself.
......A time machine?..
Oh, yeah. That could sway me, too. ‘80s hair, makeup, spike heels, the music.....
Gimmie a call when you get there. You, me and mt friend Ronnie got lots to discuss. Won’t be hard to find me. I’ll be the rich kid with friends in really high places. ;)
Oh...and by the time we get done, no one here would remember anyway. Because America would look rather different. I think it would look a lot like Berke Breathed’s Bloom Country strip about the ‘vanishing American Liberal...a beast that once thundered across the plains...and hunted to near extinction.”
Except for the ‘near’ bit...We’d have to work on that.
Peter is a dick.
He didn't say that. It's the reporter "interpreting" what he did say.
Peter King... just another GOP elite whose A$$ needs dumped.
