Rep. Peter King (SCUMBAG) Bashes Sen. Ted Cruz on CNN: ‘Those I’ve Spoken To Think He’s Crazy’
Mediaite ^ | September 25th, 2013 | Josh Feldman

Congressman Peter King has been one of the strongest Republican voices opposing Ted Cruz‘s fight against Obamacare, frequently calling him a “fraud.” On CNN Wednesday night, King continued hammering Cruz, telling Anderson Cooper that despite how much Cruz may view himself as a conservative “folk hero” the majority of the country is rallying behind, “those I’ve spoken to think he’s crazy.”

King likened this to the Charge of the Light Brigade and said Cruz is a “kamikaze pilot,” ultimately finding his tactics to be destructive to the Republican party. He continued to call Cruz a fraud and a “medicine man selling goods he knows are phony goods.”

Cooper asked why King is taking the “unusual” step of being so critical of a member of his own party. King said he has no loyalty to Cruz, adding that Cruz was trying to intimidate Republican members of Congress” in the past few months to vote his way “with explicit threats of primaries.”

I had to say a word about this.

This thigh rash. This piece of crap who wanted to arm terrorists in Syria. This nobody from New York who is considered a defense expert for some reason. He has to go. For all of McJuan of La Mancha's disgusting treachery, he doesn't usually go into the Democrat lows of almost comical ad hominem. Peter King called Ted Cruz a "terrorist". This is the kind of BS we expect from Nazi Pelosi!

He whines about the "explicit threats of primaries". Let's give him one! I want to see Peter King gone forever. He's not a conservative. He's not intelligent in the least. He is a rat, and I despise him.

Now is the time to begin building a foundation to liquidate the RINO caucus in the House and Senate. We have recruited top tier candidates against Lamar Alexander, Linda Gayham, and Bit9h McConnell. Unfortunately we'll have to wait until 2016 to remove McCain and Boozman, but the House critters are up every single time.

I don't care if we replace King with some go-along get-along type who keeps his mouth shut. That would be better than this blatantly destructive bomb-throwing leftist whackjob. This is WAR, and there will be primaries. The Cruz Missile Wing is in ascendance. F U PETER!

The more I see, the more I think this presidential stuff must be a joke. He can’t honestly think he’ll have any support.

I just had an epiphany. Based on King’s record, if Ted Cruz is indeed a ‘terrorist’, shouldn’t King be supporting him?

>> This piece of crap who wanted to arm terrorists in Syria. This nobody from New York who is considered a defense expert for some reason. He has to go. <<

He's "needed to go" since at least dating back to 1998 (when he worked his butt off to save Clinton during impeachment and demonize anyone who told the truth about Clinton's treason). Of course, every time freepers say it's the "last straw" with King, he's back the next primary season working the airwaves and beating his chest about how strongly pro-life and anti-illegal alien he is, and announcing he's going to investigate some mosque to fight Sharia law. The result is a bunch of freepers decide all is forgiven and begin to kiss his RINO butt again.

Seriously, after 15 years of this game, I can't see King going anywhere.

King is taking the “unusual” step of being so critical of a member of his own party.

Not unusual at all, people in NY, AZ, and SC do it all the time with voter approval.

What’s his district like? I’m not too familiar with NY’s political layout.

What on earth is wrong with threatening a pol with a primary.

FUPK.

Well OK then. If Cruz does indeed run in 2016 there better be huge conservative representation in the voting booths and also in Cruz campaign offices from coast to coast. If he falters I don’t want to hear any more excuses from our side that the establishment did him in. If conservatives really are numerically superior in the GOP then the results better be there this time.

It sickens me to my stomach when I contemplate the fact that this pile of excrement wants to be considered for the Republican ticket in 2016.

I would literally vote for a turd I found alongside the road before I’d ever cast a ballot for this RINO.

If we had a real conservative on the ballot, I’m convinced we could win against Rove’s machine.

I don’t like to bad mouth Mr. King or call him names but I believe he eats S**t and barks at the moon.

I’d say the AntiChrist and his fellow DimoRats are scared they are going to lose the next throne to the GOP and are firing everything they have at him to stop it from happening. They’re afraid even their own kind are beginnng to question their judgment and horrible track record. It just means Cruz is the man for the job...
