John McCain says Ted Cruz owes Bob Dole an apology for ‘President Dole’ line [VIDEO]
The Daily Caller ^ | March 8, 2014 | Matt K. Lewis

Excerpt of the transcript:

“I spoke to Ted Cruz. He and I have a cordial relationship about this. And he can say what he wants to about me — and he can say anything he wants to, I think, about Mitt. Mitt is capable of taking it. But when he throws Bob Dole in there, I wonder if he thinks that Bob Dole stood for principle on that hilltop in italy when he was so gravely wounded and left part of his body there fighting for our country? Bob Dole is such a man of honor and integrity and principle. I hope that Ted Cruz will apologize to Bob Dole because that’s — that has crossed a line that to me is — leaves the realm of the politics and discourse that we should have in America.”

I hope the next filibuster that Cruz does, he will spend some time documenting the never ending lunacy of John McCain.

Ted Cruz has 16% and Rand Paul has 14% in a 10 way presidential primary poll in Arizona.

McCain is hated a lot.

The way Cruz described Dole and McCain was polite. Was Romney wrong for attacking Juan McCain in 2008?

Bob Dole served honorably in the service, and for that we are grateful.

That does not excuse his political career.

McCain goes on msnbc with Andea Mitchell to trash Cruz, who surely touched a RINO nerve in recounting the dismal failures of the Stupid Party.

Cruz was talking about lame Republican candidates.

Here are the Republican candidates since Nixon . . .

Is this loathsome reptile trying to say that military service makes a person immune to criticism-—for anything?

Senator Cruz, please don’t dignify McCain with a response.

Screw John McLame...Cruz owes no one anything. He called it as he sees it, and there are a lot more conservatives agreeing with him than not.

If apologies are due, then Bob Dole owes America an apology for saying back when that he deserved the GOP nomination because it 'was his turn'.

AND you, McLame, you owe all conservatives an apology for not firing your campaign staff after they aided the enemy (the media) and their attacks on Sarah Palin!!

FU John McLame and Bob Dole!!!
