Rush Limbaugh blasted the moderator of the CBS Republican debate, John Dickerson, arguing "he is a Democrat Party hack, he is liberal through and through" in reference to Dickerson's attempted take-down of Ted Cruz.
Monday, on "The Rush Limbaugh Show," Limbaugh said, "Cruz was a millimeter away from launching on this guy and kept it back. He did not do it. But this guy went Candy Crowley on him."
Limbaugh said, "John Dickerson, you can't get more Democrat operative, this guy is George Stephanopoulos without a job at the Clinton war room. John Dickerson is the son of a drive-by media person, he has lived in Washington his whole life, he grew up in Washington. That's all he knows, he is a Democrat Party hack, he is liberal through and through."(continued)

Intellectual conservatives shouldn't lie.
RESPONSE TO THE LIES OF SENATOR CRUZ:
Ted Cruz is a totally unstable individual. He is the single biggest liar I've ever come across, in politics or otherwise, and I have seen some of the best of them. His statements are totally untrue and completely outrageous. It is hard to believe a person who proclaims to be a Christian could be so dishonest and lie so much.
Cruz said I would be appointing a liberal judge when in fact I will appoint a great conservative and I am the only candidate who has gone so far, at the debate, as to suggest two individuals I feel would best represent the conservative values we need to protect: William "Bill" Pryor Jr. and Diane Sykes.
Cruz says I am pro-choice, when in fact I am staunchly pro-life and have been for a long time. Like Ronald Reagan, on many issues, I have evolved.
Cruz says I am in favor of ObamaCare, when in fact I have spoken about repealing and replacing this disaster of a system at every speech throughout my campaign and since it's inception. Meanwhile, Cruz was responsible for getting Bush to put in the judge that failed to vote against ObamaCare twice.
Cruz says I will try to take away your second amendment rights, when I am one of the strongest proponents of the right to bear arms and I say so in every speech that I have made for years. I am a proud member of the NRA and so are my sons.
Cruz has become unhinged and is lying with the hopes that his statements will go unchecked until after the election and he will save his failing campaign.
In Iowa, Cruz told thousands of Ben Carson voters that Dr. Carson had left the race and to instead vote for Ted Cruz. He apologized when the race was over. Likewise, his fraudulent voter violation form sent to Iowa voters. If Ted is going to continue to lie with such desperation, I have no choice but to fight back.
One of the ways I can fight back is to bring a lawsuit against him relative to the fact that he was born in Canada and therefore cannot be President. If he doesn't take down his false ads and retract his lies, I will do so immediately. Additionally, the RNC should intervene and if they don't they are in default of their pledge to me.
I am the strongest on the borders and I will build a wall, and it will be a real wall. I am strongest on illegal immigration, strongest on ISIS, strongest on the military and I will take care of our Vets. I will end common core and preserve the second amendment. I will renegotiate our trade deals and bring our jobs back to our country. I am the only person who will Make America Great Again.

I did miss the link. Thinking the graphics and lines led my eyes away.
However I did read for conversation sake and am thinking you all might want to read that again yourself. The center piece of evidence states "That Dr. Carson will be taking a break." Now of course its splitting hairs, but as I understand . . . thats exactly what Dr. Carson told the media.
Thats why Dr. Carson never got traction making silly mistakes like that. Too bad, I really liked Dr. Carson but in no way would I think to blame Cruz et all for Dr. Carson's mistakes. But apparently some Trump supporters do. Interesting.

"Cruz Iowa staffer Spence Rogers sent precinct captains an email during the caucus hinting that Carson planned to leave the race, despite the fact that Carson's campaign said he would continue.
"Breaking News. The press is reporting that Dr. Ben Carson is taking time off from the campaign trail after Iowa and making a big announcement next week," the email, acquired by CNN, read. "Please inform any Carson caucus goers of this news and urge them to caucus for Ted Cruz."
Meanwhile, Cruz surrogate Iowa Rep. Steve King told followers on Twitter that "Carson looks like he is out."
Carson told Fox News his wife, Candy, had to correct the misinformation at one event.
"She spoke at one of the caucus sites and before she got there one of the Cruz people had again disseminated that information to the crowd," he said. "And one of the organizers told her 'I'm so glad you're here, so you could set the record straight.' And she did and we actually won in that precinct."
Carson's campaign was furious when they first learned of the tactic, and Carson decried it as a "dirty trick" during remarks Monday night at a party with supporters in West Des Moines.
"This is really a dirty trick," Carson said. "This makes me more determined than ever to keep going."
Cruz's campaign defended the Rogers message to the precinct captains.
"Carson said he was taking time off to go home. We simply repeated what he said," Cruz spokeswoman Catherine Frazier said Monday. "Our email simply stated the facts."
When asked what the "big announcement" mentioned in the email referred to, Frazier did not respond."

In that broadcast Limbaugh also speculated on the tactics Trump is using is driven by some inside polling which shows Cruz is 4 ponts behind. Trump 28 % and Trump 24 and Rush suggested Trump is going after the crossover vote by democrats which is why he is going after the Bushes with outright lies . If he did this two days before the election it might have worked but it is a full week before and the truth will seep out.
Personally I don’t think this that is going to work because of these reasons. 1, The black caucus is supporting Hillary attacking Sanders and will be working to get that vote out for the Clintons. 2, By lying DT boosted Jeb Bushes stock and now has brought his brother in, A former President who has polled favorably in South Carolina . Who may wind up up taking up the Rubio position where he would be. Because all 3, Trump, Rubio, and Jeb have all taken a vacillaring Decraying position on amnesty.
If Cruz explains what his poaition means to to the black community and where at it can help he can make inroads there.
Which I encorage him to do so. Taking an effort by Teddy Resoevelt. Decrying the Alinsky use of hypenation and separation of Americans into politically manipulated groups. This message which Americans expected from Obama but was discraded because of ideological concepts will work.
We are Americans. One People,One langauge, and under our constituttion which is a contract which sets the limits of governnment and as a contract sets limits of where and what government and its division of powers between to rxecutive branch, the legisilative branch and the judicial branch can do. Were to given us to us by inspiration by our Creator
I really do not have the imput to make a proper projection but I do say Trump has finally jumped the shark . With this guy it has gotten to the point with me I am so sick and tired of his ego trips b/s I tune him out like I do with Obama. Who by the was should be impeached but then rhat is politics

Cruz is not lying...Trump is...because he has held those views.
If Trump is that thin skinned to where he can’t admit he changed a view, ie:flipflopped....then he’s unqualified in my view.
His most recent defense of planned parenthood should give you much heartburn.
If it does not, then fine, but I have stated my position as well.
To: dynoman
Its amazing people STILL BELIEVE anything he says.
Not me !
I don't vote for DemocRAT SOCIALISTS like Trump! !

Vera Coking walks past Donald Trump, obscured against wall at left, in a courtroom hallway
at Atlantic County Superior Court on Feb. 13, 1997.
... Trump wanted Coking's house - - not to live in, but as a place to park limousines for his casino next door.
"It is a classic case of a schoolyard bully growing up," said Clint Bolick, who co-founded the legal institute that defended Coking in a 1990s lawsuit with Trump ... "He's a thug."
Coking and her husband bought the white, three-story house at 127 Columbia Pl. in 1961, long before the area was transformed by mega-casinos.
She raised her children there.
For a time, she operated it as a boarding house.
... Coking, who is now more than 90 years old and was not available to be interviewed, was having none of it.
This was her "dream house," said Dana Berliner ...
Coking held firm, even as the 22-story Trump Plaza soared outside her windows with its ever-flashing lights.
The house was deteriorating, but Coking's will wasn't.
Demolition crews had set fire to her roof, broken windows and smashed up much of the third floor, according to her attorneys.
Still, she didn't move.
... Trump, Coking and the casino authority pounded away at one another in court.
Then, one day in the summer of 1998, the Superior Court of New Jersey put an end to the conflict.
The court ruled that the casino authority and Trump were wrong.
The government couldn't take Coking's house and let Trump have it.
And you support that P.O.S. Trump ?
HOW VILE CAN YOU GET ! ? !

Donald Trump tells immigrant advocates "You've convinced me"
...Trump told the trio "You've convinced me."
The meeting comes several weeks after Trump - one of the nation's most prominent conservative voices - delivered a key note address on immigration reform in Iowa
and warned that that the Senate's current immigration bill "could be a death wish" for Republicans, who "need to 'do the right thing' ."
Trump: U.S. should accept some Syrian refugees
Donald Trump thinks the United States should accept some refugees from Syria due to the "unbelievable humanitarian problem." ...
Trump ... said Tuesday evening that though the migrants could pose a security risk -- floating the idea that there may be individuals with ties to Islamic militants --
he supported allowing them into America. ...
Donald J. Trump - Verified account @realDonaldTrump
Congress must protect our borders first.
Amnesty should be done only if the border is secure and illegal immigration has stopped.

Message to the GOP: Trump supports amnesty
... On the Kelly File Thursday, Trump's son Eric expressed frustration that the media overlooks this: The point isn't just deporting them, it's deporting them and letting them back in legally.
He's been so clear about that and I know the liberal media wants to misconstrue it,
but its deporting them and letting them back legally.
Eric Trump is right.
His father has been crystal clear that he wants all the illegals to return and live in America.
Listen closely to what Trump is actually proposing.
In an interview with CNN's Dana Bash earlier this year, Trump explained his plan this way: I would get people out and then have an expedited way of getting them back into the country so they can be legal ...
A lot of these people are helping us ... and sometimes it's jobs a citizen of the United States doesn't want to do.
I want to move 'em out, and we're going to move 'em back in and let them be legal.
Donald Trump's companies sought visas to import at least 1,100 workers
... Trump owns companies that have sought to import at least 1,100 foreign workers on temporary visas since 2000,
according to U.S. Department of Labor data reviewed by Reuters.
Most of the applications were approved, the data show.
Nine companies majority-owned by Trump have sought to bring in foreign waitresses, cooks, vineyard workers and other laborers on temporary work-visa programs administered by the Labor Department.
The candidate's foreign talent hunt included applications for an assistant golf-course superintendent, an assistant hotel manager and a banquet manager.
Two of his companies, Trump Model Management and Trump Management Group LLC, have sought visas for nearly 250 foreign fashion models, the records show.
Trump's presidential campaign and a lawyer for the businessman declined to comment.
The Mar-a-Lago Club could not be reached for comment.
