GOP Chair Reince Priebus Refuses to say Ted Cruz is a Natural Born Citizen
Red State ^ | January 11, 2016 | Leon H. Wolf

Posted on 01/11/2016 8:31:09 PM PST by ConservativeTeen

Holy cow. While I’m not as hard on Reince Priebus as a lot of other folks are inclined to be, this is a major, major unforced error on his part. Time Magazine online had an interview with Priebus yesterday and completely buried the lede, which was that Priebus refused to unequivocally declare that one of the Party’s leading candidates was eligible to run for President:

A topic in the news today: Ted Cruz was born in Canada. Is he constitutionally eligible to be President?

Listen, I don’t get involved. I’m not going to get in the middle of all these candidate issues. It’s a bad place for me to be. I’ll let all these folks argue about this stuff, and I’m going to stay out of it.

I really hate the GOPe! They are more willing to defend Obama's NBC status than they are Cruz's.

Rance Priebus and his lackey Corey Lewandowski need to be deported.

there is no way he can be and I love him...however if this keeps up we will have noone but ourselves to blame when we get a jihadist in the WH. The founders created this firewall for a reason.

What connection do Rinse and Lewandowski have? From what I’ve read they couldn’t be further apart.

What is needed is for Cruz to go to court quickly and get the final word. This “head in the sand” is not working.

Is there a process whereby we grassroot GOPers can excommunicate Mister Priebus?

Not just a "no confidence" vote, I mean through via a vote to turn out to pasture.

the weasel from Wisconsin wants a fellow Wisconsin weasel, Paul Ryan to become the frontrunner.

News to you Priebus: that is a loser you are trying to promote.

I just thank God every day that the ‘no matter what’ crowd shoved as much evil into the GOP as they possibly could in the name of winning. Imagine the horror if the damn purists got their way. Why, we’d have no one in the RNCGOP to protect us from those awful conservatives!

THANK GOD!!! THANK GOD!!!

Could you imagine Debbie Blabbermouth Schultz saying the same of Obama? Rinse Dickless should resign immediately.

Right after the Primary Election, I’m reregistering as an Independent. I’m done with these ball less wonders.

I’ve given them 45 Years, enough is enough.

Just curious Norm, as always. #;^)

Like you expect me to believe Reince Priebus is ‘natural born’.

Reince Priebus is more like the Latin name for some kind of bedbug.

Of course the GOPe will not say.

Cruz is not one of their boys.

It is not what is best for the country, or the voters. It is what is best for their greed.

I’ve always been here Norm.

I just keep to myself, (most of the time). LOL

Did you like my new name for the RNC Chairman, “Rinse Dickless”?

I’m from Wisconsin and look what it gave me Priebus, Ryan, Johnson, Walker and of course don’t forget Tammy Baldwin. Not very proud of my state.
