Cruz tells Chris Wallace he flipped his vote on crop insurance because he didn't realize what he was voting on. Blames his staff.

Either Cruz is lying or Pat Roberts is lying.

[Paladin2]

Who hired his staff? Trained them?

[Cold Heat]

Crop insurance...???

Everyone favors crop insurance.

I don’t know enough about what was else was in the bill, but I think you are beating the previously determined dead horse again.

[Kenny]

Wow! So he’s saying he doesn’t know what he’s voting on?

[tennmountainman]

Cruz is supposed to be the smartest lawyer in the country.
His story is not credible.

[The Iceman Cometh]

Wow! So he’s saying he doesn’t know what he’s voting on?

Does anyone in D.C. read the bills anymore?

[over3Owithabrain]

He supposedly remembers everything but forgets filings, votes, etc.

Cruz has what they call a convenient memory.

[dforest]

Cruz once again playing games.

Geesh, why does he always do this? Then he blames his staff or says everybody else is lying.

So weird.

[Finny]

Was the way Cruz voted on the crop insurance contrary to his stated position? Otherwise, looks like an honest mistake. Would have been nice if he'd said it was an easy mistake to happen that his team might miss, but --

[csmusaret]

Cruz also said once he realized his mistake he changed his vote back again. I don’t know if that is true or not, but I do know he said it. That should be easy enough to check

[gusopol3]

So he needed Pat Roberts to tell him,” This will hurt you in Iowa?” Yeah, Pat Roberts is lying.

[TexasGator]

“Either Cruz is lying or Pat Roberts is lying. “

Both stories are consistent.

[TexasGator]

“Does anyone in D.C. read the bills anymore? “

They switched the order of voting.

[berdie]

That is not unique.

They all do.

[conservativejoy]

Neither one is lying. Cruz’s staff apologized for the error. Sometimes, in the Senate, the order of the voting gets flipped from what it was originally. This time Cruz’s staff didn’t catch it. Cruz had never intended to vote any other way on crop insurance. His previous record supports that.

[TexasGator]

“Geesh, why does he always do this? Then he blames his staff or says everybody else is lying.”

Why are their so many Cruz haters here?

[dforest]

They all are not running for President.

[Fungi]

I am not a fan of Wallace. He is a friend of Mike Gallegher and appears regularly on Mike's show. Mike is the son of Dan Wallace and follows in his footsteps with utter disregard for the truth unless it fits his left wing world view. Lastly, that voice, that voice!!! It is reminiscent of nails on a chalkboard a hundred fold!

[Timber Rattler]

Who to believe? Cruz or Pat "fossilized RINO" Roberts?

That's easy...

[conservativejoy]

Cruz did not accuse anyone of lying and his staff apologized for missing that the voting order had changed. Why make a mountain out of a mole hill?
