We thought it might be refreshing to start out with a quote from Sen. Ted Cruz about ISIS, seeing as the Islamic State is not “contained” by any means, and America let the last election come down to out-of-nowhere issues like Big Bird, bayonets, and binders full of women. It seems Hillary Clinton’s team is trying to draw Cruz back down into that level of campaign with tweets like this one:
Ted Cruz says no one is trying to ban contraception. Here are five times he tried to do *exactly* that: https://t.co/qrRW0tGtFD

Seriously? The woman at the center of more scandals than we can count is going after Ted Cruz on his crusade to ban contraception? Does that ban come with a waiver for interns?
The asterisks @HillaryClinton used in her tweet about @tedcruz banning birth control were to tell you she's lying.

@amandacarpenter @HillaryClinton @tedcruz That it was coming from Hillary Clinton was also probably enough, really.

This is *exactly* the most blatant lie to date of campaign 2016. https://t.co/GNYKWoAW48

Maybe HRod uses "exactly" the way Biden uses "literally"?
— Phil Kerpen (@kerpen) December 2, 2015
Except the asterisks make you think she REALLY, ACTUALLY, LITERALLY, **EXACTLY** means it. So really, totally indefensible straight up lie.

@kerpen they really don't have a whole lot going for them do they?

@kerpen At least we didn’t have to wait for Stephanopoulos to make the claim this time.

@JohnEkdahl Yes well, he'll out-of-the-blue whatever new made-up issue Celinda Lake discovers.

Funny that in 2013 the Daily Beast published a piece on Ted Cruz detailing the design on the bathrobe he wore in his college dorm, but in 2015 we still haven’t seen President Obama’s transcripts.
@kerpen @JoeC1776 >> @HillaryClinton << looking VERY desperate, very scared

@kerpen Scared shitless of Ted……I can see why

@kerpen They are forced to defend irrational arguments so that they will believe irrational statements. Yes, it makes sense. Think about it.

So, how many times *exactly* did Cruz try to ban contraception?
@HillaryClinton how many times did Benghazi ask for help?
— Chris Keck (@keck1157) December 2, 2015
@keck1157 @sweetdreamdairy @HillaryClinton if they had 2 ask MORE THAN ONE TIME it was TOO MANY TIMES.
