Ted Cruz
Sen. Ted Cruz, who’s recently been pulling a bit stronger in polls for president, told a national listening audience on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show most violent criminals are Democrats, and that the media is involved in an active campaign to cover or ignore this fact.
The context of his statement was discussion of the Planned Parenthood shootings and the question of media coverage focusing on the so–called violent pro–life movement.
Cruz said, according to audio posted at Mediaite: “Every time you have some sort of violent crime or mass killing you can almost see the media salivating, hoping – hoping – desperately that the murderer happens to be a Republican so they can use it to kind of paint their enemy.”
But most violent offenders lean left on the political scale, he said.
Can the Republican Party save itself? Richard Viguerie has the prescription in “Takeover.”
“Now here’s the simple and undeniable fact,” Cruz went on. “The overwhelming majority of violent criminals are Democrats. The media doesn’t report that.”
Why not?
“There’s a reason why the Democrats for years have been viewed as soft on crime,” he said. “[It’s] because they go in and appoint to the bench judges who release violent criminals … they go in and fight to give the right to convicted felons. Why? Because the Democrats know convicted felons tend to vote Democrat. So the media never reports on any of that, doesn’t want to admit any of that, but you can see every time there’s a terrible crime, they’re just so excited, ‘Come on please, one of these be a Republican so we can try to paint the other side.’ It is one of the more egregious example of media bias and it is something we see over and over again.”
