Cruz Campaign Apologizes to Marco Rubio for Spreading False Bible Story

Rick Tyler, the Senior Communications Advisor for Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), issued a public apology after spreading a false story reporting that Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) made a nasty comment to a Cruz staffer about the Bible.

"I want to apologize to Senator Marco Rubio for posting an inaccurate story about him here earlier today," Tyler wrote on Facebook after sharing the false story online. "The story misquoted a remark the Senator made to the staffer. I assumed wrongly that the story was correct."

The false report indicated that Rubio said that there were "not many answers" in the Bible -- when in fact, Rubio commented that "all the answers" were in the book of scripture.

Tyler indicated that he communicated with the Cruz staffer in the video, who explained that Rubio had made a "friendly and appropriate remark" about the Bible.

"Since the audio was unclear, I should not have assumed the story was correct," Tyler wrote. "I've deleted the post because I would not knowingly post a false story. But the fact remains that I did post it when I should have checked its accuracy first. I regret the mistake."

Where was Donald?

Making $10 billion, running a business, and acquiring the skill-set that none of you Great Talents seem to be able to beat.

FAIL.  You can't tell us who the ba'al of Egypt was anymore than you can rebuke the truth:

 

When an interviewer recently called Lady Gaga the "Billy Graham of pop," she claimed,

"I'm teaching people to worship themselves."

Rom 1:25-27
25 They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator - who is forever praised. Amen.

26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.

[Psalm 144]

Who’s imploding now, hmmm???

You have some cockamamie theory that this was the earthly government.

How the earthly government was able to do things like have magicians who could turn their rods into serpents (which was the occasion for Moses’ serpent to swallow them) is something you have explained less well. My explanation (literal demons) works QUITE well! Because the truth always does.

You could use some back-to-the-bible work, beginning with Ephesians 6.

I rebuke you.

[M. Thatcher]

he's worldly...bigger dogs ordering around smaller dogs. And we can see Cruz just drinking those "waters of abundance" (Psalm 73). A Christian shouldn't be doing that.

Whatever you say, Glenn.

I'm out.

Again, seek help.

[HiTech RedNeck]

You are the one who needs to seek help. If you will not perceive the ways of God.

[HLPhat]

BZZZ!  Try again.

===============================

BAAL

BAAL, MASTER

ba±al OT:1167, "master; baal." In Akkadian, the noun belu ("lord") gave rise to the verb belu ("to rule"). In other northwest Semitic languages, the noun ba±al differs somewhat in meaning, as other words have taken over the meaning of "sir" or "lord." (Cf. Heb. °adon.) The Hebrew word ba±al seems to have been related to these homonyms.

The word ba±al occurs 84 times in the Hebrew Old Testament, 15 times with the meaning of "husband" and 50 times as a reference to a deity. The first occurrence of the noun ba±al is in Gen 14:13: "And there came one that had escaped, and told Abram the Hebrew; for he dwelt in the plain of Mamre the Amorite, brother of Eshcol, and brother of Aner: and these were confederate with [literally, "ba±al's of a covenant with"] Abram."

Who was the Baal of Eqypt?

[M. Thatcher]

Apparently to you "perceiving the ways of God" means agreeing with you.

Seek help, Glenn.

[HiTech RedNeck]

I see any earthly work and raise you one actual Bible.

Eph 6.

Learn it, love it, live it.

[HiTech RedNeck]

If I’m correct, yes.

Seek help, M. Thatcher.

[M. Thatcher]

If I'm correct

You're not.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Prove it.

[M. Thatcher]

God told me.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well if you heard something else from God, listen to God. But don’t be an arse about it.

[M. Thatcher]

Right back atcha.

[HLPhat]

>>one actual Bible.

Go ahead and burry your head in the sand.  The Hebrew word Baal means what it means -- and the theocratic lord of Egypt was the Pharaoh, super genius.

Meanwhile, it wasn't "one actual Bible" that the college kids/Trumpanzees thought was being read when they concocted their "not many answers in there" misquoted caption (LIE) though, was it.

Nope - in the context their falsely captioned video was posted in, the false caption was speculatively targeted at a book by CRUZ.

"Wish we knew what book he was reading (perhaps Ted Cruz's A Time for Truth?) Comment below and take a guess at what you think he was reading"

So intellectual of you. To think you can count to two

I’ve watched videos of trump saying planned parenthood does wonderful things.

[BlueNgold]

Any follow up thoughts now that Tyler got canned?

Did Ted do the right thing or over-react?

[topfile]

I supported Cruz from early on

I'm a Trump supporter and also liked Cruz too. I even advocated to friends to check out Cruz on the Senate floor. Had several tell me that he "creeps" them out. I didn't get it all, seriously.

We'll I get it now.
