Ted Cruz Responds to Jerry Brown Saying He’s ‘Unfit’ for Office
by Josh Feldman | 3:48 pm, March 23rd, 2015

Before he officially announced his run for the presidency, Senator Ted Cruz responded to California Governor Jerry Brown calling him “unfit” for office.

Brown was on Meet the Press yesterday and reacted to Cruz rejecting scientific theories about climate change. Brown said, “That man betokens such a level of ignorance and a direct falsification of the existing scientific data… [He] has rendered himself absolutely unfit to be running for office.”

Cruz spoke to Breitbart News Sunday yesterday and responded to Brown’s remarks. He rejected the “alarmism” and again insisted there has been no warming in the past decade-plus.

Cruz also expressed disappointment in Brown engaging in ad hominem attacks:

He said alarmists like Brown “ridicule and insult anyone who actually looks at the real data” instead of engaging in a meaningful debate or discussion because “they don’t want to confront the data” that undercuts their narrative. Cruz said that though “apocalyptical computer models said that we would see substantial warming,” the “problem is that the satellites that are actually measuring the temperature show that that isn’t happening.”

That is a pretty classy response.  The rats and the media can't paint Sen. Cruz as an idiot (their first choice of attack) so they will paint him as unbalanced and too risky to be given access to the nuclear button.  He needs to avoid responding with personal attacks that the media can make into a story about a feud and drown out his message.

Only thing that is going to be funnier than Moonbeam taking a shot at TC will be Biteme saying that TC is to stupid to be POTUS.
