Ted Cruz [Doubles Down]: 'Sure,' RNC Is at Fault for CNBC Debate Debacle
CNS News ^ | October 30, 2015 | Susan Jones

Posted on 10/30/2015 12:05:05 PM PDT by ManHunter

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) says "sure," the Republican National Committee is at fault for allowing debates where liberal moderators "belittle" and "insult" Republican candidates rather than "help primary voters decide who to vote for."

"Why would our primary debates be moderated by people with an agenda of defeating whoever the Republican nominee is?" Cruz asked on Thursday.

He didn’t run for office because he needed 99 friends.

I have my suspicions about this guy but his public speech is hard to not like.

I missed the debates. Is there a clip of Cruz confronting the moderators?

It isn’t like the RNC hasn’t known FOR YEARS that the MSM and their various talking-heads are DEVOUTLY anti-Republican and will do anything and everything to under mind the Republican candidates and the American democratic process!

I mean, Candy “Must Have Ate Too Much” Crowley’s performance during the 2012 debates should have been the DAGGER in the heart of media-driven debates!

But, NO the RNC WANTS the MSM to help them pick the Republican nominee, instead of allowing the people to make the decision, free of Liberal and left-leaning Republican influence!

It is crap like this that does not allow me to write checks to the RNC! NEVER EVER AGAIN! Directly to my candidate(s) of choice - PERIOD!! The RNC, along with the Congress committees designed to help get current members re-elected, purposefully undermined the will of the people in each of the last three or four elections (both Presidential and Congressional). I’m done with them!

Palin and others are talking about “leaders” telling the media what to do. Well, we DON’T need the feds telling the media what to do! We already have that and that’s what has brought us to this hideous place.

The unconstitutional FCC needs to be ABOLISHED and the feds need to stay OUT of interfering with the media and free speech ALTOGETHER!!! Then we’ll have the types of freedom to tell the honest-to-God truth and not more of this stupid “fair and balanced” crap.

RNC has to put its hand in the fire and be burnt at least 50 times before realizing that the fire is hot.
