GOP congressman: Ted Cruz backers are making boorish phone calls to my office (Guess who?)
The Washington Post's Post Politics ^ | March 27, 2015 | Mike DeBonis

Rep. Peter D. King (R-N.Y.) is not a fan of Sen. Ted Cruz, the Texas senator, newly announced presidential candidate, and fellow Republican.

"To me, he's just a guy with a big mouth and no results," he told CNN this week.

Well, Cruz supporters aren't much fans of King, a moderate representing Long Island who has long been critical of hard-line conservatives in his own party. And, King said Friday, they have called his congressional office to let him know how they felt, prompting him to issue a statement slamming those Cruz backers as suffering "from severe cases of arrested development."

"I owe it to my staff - particularly the female members and young interns - to make this statement," King said, explaining that he was used to "return fire" in politics.

Ted Cruz supporters(who are on the whole pretty smart, very well informed and to a fault polite and well behaved), are hardly likely to make obscene phone calls to an ignorant loud mouth slut like Peter King. How do we know this idiot has even received any calls from anyone let alone Ted Cruz supporters. Looks to me like attention whore Peter King is seeking to make himself relevant.
