Geraldo Rivera said Thursday night that Sen. Ted Cruz’s attack on “New York values” is actually a form of anti-Semitism.
In an appearance on Fox News Channel’s “O’Reilly Factor,” Mr. Rivera, also a Fox News correspondent, said that Mr. Cruz’s explanation that he meant to attack a certain sort of liberalism didn’t hold water because “”He could have very easily said that.”
Mr. Rivera called the “New York values” comment an example of “stinking anti-Semitic implications” pandering to Iowa voters, the nominal audience for the debate during which Mr. Cruz made the remarks about real-estate tycoon Donald Trump.

When people start using cliche terms like "coded message" and "dog whistle" (and it's almost exclusively leftists that use those terms) the are really saying: "He didn't say anything of the kind, but I'm hoping you're stupid enough to think what he MEANT was THIS thing that damages him and bolsters MY cause."
Why is ultra-liberal Geraldo Rivera still a fox news correspondent?
If Cruz pissed off Geraldo he must be doing something right.
Ted Cruz, the most ardent supporter of the State of Israel isw being called antisemitic by whorealdo. duh . .
Well if Geraldo is all bent out of shape over this alleged anti-Semitism in Cruz’s comments, I bet he gets really teed off over what’s now quite fashionable amongst leftists in the U.K. and Europe (would probably not hold my breath for that though).
The man without a country pissed off Geraldo.....I dislike them both.
He's a thoroughly unlikeable person.

jerry rivers........still trying to be relevant, for the 1st time IMO................ Can’t dance either.
Geraldo is a better DWTS dancer than he is a political pundit.
If you don’t know, Geraldo was the first to be eliminated on this season’s Dancing With the Stars. Geraldo was easily one of the 5 worst dancers in DWTS history - if not the worst.
That’s not fair!
Obama attacking Trump is a much bigger endorsement than Geraldo attacking Ted!
We want Obama to attack Ted too!
Geraldo ain’t worth Eskimo sweat!
When fine upstanding folks like Jerry don’t like you, Cruz must be doing something correctly.
So you're biting on Jerry's bait? Fascinating.
Well, that’s just about down to flinging the last turd in the box. Only in some sort of la la land will that even be claimed to stick.
“It’s easy to see why none of sCruz’s classmates at Princeton and Harvard and none of his fellow Senators like him.
He’s a thoroughly unlikeable person.”
True. The reality is, in a general election, likability is tre importante. And in that department Ted Cruz comes up way short.
What’s next? Someone get a thread up on Al Sharpton’s opinion of Ted Cruz.
I notice that when a leftist criticizes Cruz, the Cruz people dismiss it as trash.
But when a leftist criticizes Trump, the Cruz people take it as Gospel truth.
Whorealdo’s credibility got left with the treasures in Al Capone’s vault.
I notice the same thing about the tRump people. Funny how that is.
I was p!ssed when Cruz made that statement about NY values.
When this race began last summer, I was a Cruz supporter. When I really got to know him--not just what he says but the person behind the words--I was completely turned off.
There's something repugnant about Cruz.
I think I see another chair headed towards Jerry’s face.
Hopefully delivered by the ladies on #Outnumbered.
What a putz.
