fiancee out of an elevator, dumping her limp body on the floor. this all happened in an atlantic city casino over the weekend after the two apparently got into a fight that was serious enough for her to lose consciousness. both rice and janay palmer were arrested, accused of hitting each other. prosecutors canceling rice s court appearance next week to review all of this new evidence now. senator ted cruz beating back against critics from within his own party. he s been taking heat for filibustering the debt ceiling bill a few weeks ago. cruz now blasting gop leadership for pushing the vote, saying it was all show and a disservice to their own constituents. my response is, i don t want to throw any republicans under the bus. i would like to see all 45 republicans stand together and actually do what we tell our constituents. fox news contributor. bernard wittman, bill clinton
dollars. to answer your question, gretchen, yes. in the idea that senators should work together collaboratively, especially within their own party, cruz certainly is putting republican a very bad after years of leaving them out at the conservative political action conference, cpac, plans to welcome gay rights groups. the president of the organization saying this. cpac is about finding conservative solutions to every challenge in america and not just saying no. we re determined to win the majority of americans support. i know this issue near and dear to your heart, bernard. what do you make of the fact well, they re not going to allow them to have booths or get a sponsorship. they re going to allow groups like go proud back in. i think it s a step forward. the truth is we as gay americans should never have to beg to be included in american society. whether we re liberals, conservatives, moderates or somewhere in between. to be treated as second class citizens doesn t make sense
and of itself is going to force democrats into such a bad electoral position this year that they re going to win the senate based on that alone. it s not a bad calculation. you re not answering the question, though. bernard, ted cruz, what does he do to the republican party right now? he seems intent on driving the gop bus right off the cliff. why do i say this? 54% of americans said if there s a debt showdown fight they re going to blame the republicans. we did this 2 1/2 years ago. it cost us dearly. downgraded our debt. threatened the economy. americans want the parties to come together. they want solutions. they don t want brinksmanship. ted cruz ultimately represents the far right wing of the republican party. and the tea party driven by ted cruz is going to drive these elections right into the hands of the democrats. quick. a little disingenuous considering president obama when he was a senator was against raising the debt ceiling when the debt wasn t a trillion
