“Ted Cruz is one of the most conservative people in American politics. He just made a very important statement that you quoted, that you ran on the air, which he said if a state wants to have same-sex marriage, that’s okay,”
There are two separate concepts in that statement Cruz made.
Cruz affirms that:
1. gay marriage is a state issue
2. gay marriage is okay
Half of that belong to the New York values he slammed, and the other half is acceptable to the gays, because they know it is a pig in a poke.
"I support the Constitution letting each state decide each marriage law consistent with the values of their citizens," Cruz said. "If the citizens of California decide they want to allow gay marriage, that's a decision for them."
Nowhere in any of that did Ted say gay marriage was OK. and for the record, the State of California rejected same-sex marriage. Twice. So Ted got it right. And you got caught lying about it.
