NEWTON, Iowa -- Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) downplayed the role anti-abortion rhetoric may have played in the fatal shooting of three people at a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado and suggested the suspect was a “transgendered leftist activist" at a campaign stop in Iowa on Sunday.
Speaking with reporters following the event, Cruz rejected suggestions that the shooter was part of the anti-abortion movement, taking issue with the “vicious rhetoric on the left blaming those who are pro-life.â€
Robert Lewis Dear, 57, was taken into custody Friday night after allegedly opening fire inside a Planned Parenthood clinic in Colorado Springs, killing three and injuring nine others.
When a reporter reminded the Texas senator that the suspect allegedly made a comment about “baby parts†while being arrested, Cruz countered, “It’s also been reported that he was registered as an independent and a woman and transgendered leftist activist, if that’s what he is.â€[continued]

LOL. Leave it to the HuffPost to completely take Cruz’s words out of context. It’s all good though, they have an agenda to pursue and stuff.
Another obama son... oh, wait, daughter... ???
I love it. Good for him.
gotta read the comment section on the HuffPost article - some really loving and tolerant folks on the left....
Never forget that the left are the ones who killed over 100 million of their own people in the last century. I am sure they had love in their hearts in the normal backwards way that the left thinks.
No way. The HuffPost completely deletes any and all comments critical of their boss' Stalinist agenda. They'd make Charles Johnson at the old LGF look like 1st Amendment champions.
The shooter thought he was a woman (Bruce Jenner type?). He is no Republican (neither am I, but I usually vote Republican).
Honest question - why does everyone say this is a transgender man who committed this insanity? I sincerely hope it was not because of what was listed on his voter registration because the only interviews I have seen with people who knew him or saw him have said nothing about this.
He obviously has some screws loose, but where is the evidence? He was dressed as a male right? Was he booked previously into jail as undecided or female? Would be embarrassing to get this wrong....
I think he was saying that we have very little information and law enforcement is not where the “body parts” quote came from.
I briefly saw some type of registration in which his answer to the question of sex was female.
So, it would appear he ‘ self identified ‘ as a woman. Which is to say, he is as insane as all of these ‘ transgendered ‘ people.
There is NO WAY that Cruz would have said this without Trump CLEARING THE PATH through political correctness for him.
What counts is that Cruz and others FINALLY feel free to speak their mind - things will be fun.
Good old LGF Charles. My final post at that site was to ask Chuck, then on an everyone-is-racist rant, why he chose to live in a lily white neighborhood (Hermosa Beach, CA).
Did the FBI search his computer and get his DU screen name? and will we ever know the truth if they do?
I seem to remember Ted Cruz speaking his mind back when Mr. Trump was still on television.
I has become a sorry place when politicians are now asked to chime in on crimes when they aren’t privy, nor should they be, to inside info frome the police departments.
Obama started this crap.
Nixon erred on the Manson case, but that was a one-off.
You sound terribly concerned.
