Chuck Schumer on Cruz "I think he lives with Alice in Wonderland"

Here's something to discuss. Ted Cruz, on CBS this AM, revealing yet again that he has nothing but contempt for the voters:

“I think it was a mistake that President Obama and the Democrats shut the government down this fall. The reason they did so is that President Obama dug in and said he wouldn't compromise and he wouldn't negotiate.”

The man is either completely deluded or he thinks others have no memory, and we all recall his would-be filibustering of the Senate to do just one thing, shut down the government!

when they go on these nominal News shows they do not get called on this bullshit.
You will never hear "that is simply not true Sen. Cruz." from any newsman.
In fact Chuck Todd recently said reporting the truth is not their job.

Propaganda needs to be branded as such at all times to overcome the propagandist's need to hide as news.
