That is not correct.
(Excerpt)
Ted Cruz, the former Texas solicitor general and tea party favorite for the Republican nomination for Senate, has been focusing some of his harshest campaign trail rhetoric on that longtime villain of those suspicious of U.S. internationalism: The Council on Foreign Relations. The New York-based group, Cruz said at a speech to a Republican women's group in Sugarland, Tex., last week, is "a pit of vipers." When asked about the Council at another event in Tyler, Tex., on Oct. 15 -- Texas, home of Ron Paul and Alex Jones, is the sort of place this comes up a lot -- Cruz called the organization "a pernicious nest of snakes" that is "working to undermine our sovereignty," according to video provided by someone who opposes his candidacy.
That worked well.
