Ted and Carly just can’t stop saying stupid things they shouldn’t during presidential debates this cycle. I get that they have to out-crazy each other, but really, even for their modest brain capacity, this is just irresponsible.
Let’s begin with the tale of Ted.
Ted Cruz has to learn to keep his cool during his bouts of verbal diarrhea. This time, when he got into a heated exchange with Marco Rubio during the most recent Republican debate, he might have just outed a huge classified bit of information about the NSA’s much-criticized phone metadata tracking program.
According to reports, Chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, Richard Burr (R-NC), will be investigating the transcripts of the debate to see if Cruz did violate federal law.
Cruz’s comments went as follows:
What [Rubio] knows is that the old program covered 20 percent to 30 percent of phone numbers to search for terrorists. The new program covers nearly 100 percent. That gives us greater ability to stop acts of terrorism, and he knows that that’s the case.
Rubio quickly interjected, seeming a bit surprised and astonished that Cruz would just blurt this information out during a debate:
Let me be very careful when answering this, because I don’t think national television in front of 15 million people is the place to discuss classified information. So let me just be very clear. There is nothing that we are allowed to do under this bill that we could not do before.
Here is a clip of the cat fight between the Senators:
Immediately, Senator Richard Burr’s communications director sent a tweet regarding the situation:
Cruz shouldn't have said that.

One amusing side note to the Cruz issue was that Senator Burr noted he didn’t actually see the exchange because he was not watching the debate. According to Burr, “The Voice was on. It was the final episode.” I can’t say I fault Burr for opting not to watch.
Now, we turn to Carly.
While trying to make herself sound important, Carly pulled another bone-headed move and spoke without thinking, as is usual for her.
Her statement went as follows:
Soon after 9/11, I got a phone call from the NSA. They needed help. I gave them help. I stopped a truck load of equipment and I had it turned around. It was escorted by the NSA into headquarters.
To put that into a little context, during Carly’s absolutely catastrophic stint as CEO of Hewlett-Packard, NSA director Michael Hayden called and asked Carly to supply them with fifty servers to implement “stellar wind” - the much maligned warrantless wiretapping program ordered by the Bush White House.
A Gawker report says that last month, Motherboard reported on the statement and indicated that the action between Fiorina and Hayden was still deemed classified.
Just imagine for a moment, either one of these two half-wits was President of the United States. The amount of classified information they have currently is chump-change compared to what any President knows. Can you picture them bragging up something like Area 51 during an interview, as they get lost in the moment in front of the rest of the world?

So fire the both of em! Carly because of her smart alec men and women bad joke…..and Ted because he’s illegal!
I thought Carly was drinking
Area 51?? They both COME from Area 51! Have you seen that CNN collage put together for the debates. Every one of the candidates at least looks human until you come to Cruz and Fiorina. You are NOT telling me that skin is real!
I’m not quite sure if they’re luciferian shills, possessed by multidimensional reptilians or simply reptilians that have shape-shifted (badly) in attempt to look like humans…
lets trade them for 20000 syrian refugees. good swap
bipartisan report: I noticed you never have said a thing about Hillary’s many, I mean many emails from her personal server that contained classified material and top secret material. You should change your name to hypocritical report.
Hillary didn’t blab her email contents on national media.
Next.
No. She hide it like the crook she is. What an ignorant statement.
Pretty lame there, bagger. Wouldn’t you be happier over on RedState or WND? They wallow in the same putrid sewage you do.
And yet, she’s still a better, more honest candidate than any of the criminally-insane idiots in the GOP clown car. Go figure. Go Bernie!
Not hidden ignorant! All out in the open and she did nothing that any other candidate hasn’t done and you know it! Crawl back in your hole!!
You should change yours to Irrelevant.
Please show us the evidence, on national tv
As I said above, the very story you’re comment on is about Fiorina and Cruz announcing classified material during a nationally televised debate.
Another wheel still trying, yet the hamster is dead.
Well, considering no one has shown any direct proof of what you say, your opinion really has little merit.
Hillary’s accusers all “know” someone who has allegedly seen these damning emails, but so far no one has actually produced one.
Last I saw it was two emails and it still wasn’t clear when the material was labeled top secret. Its also unclear who if anyone ever saw the contents of any of the emails.
So many now equals two. Good to know.
This was announced on national tv and is being widely reported worldwide.
When What and How on what National TV show me all of the evidence?
Ummm…the article you’re commenting on is a news story about Fiorina and Cruz announcing classified information during a televised debate.
I think that in your casethe hamster wheel is still turning but the hamster is dead…
Fact Check never been proved an outright lie from the right…….
Mama said “STUPID IS AS STUPID DOES ” Mama said.
I call Carly “StoneFace.” But I am terrified of Trump.
Gnarly Fiorina. A vile harpy with a face like five miles of bad road. As for The Donald, a rich clown is still a clown.
She’s bragging about being a co-conspirator to criminal invasion of privacy against millions of Americans? Fascinating.
It’s a good thing Trump has no access to classified information seeing as how he has no ability to think before speaking. I shudder to think what classified info would come out of his diarrhea mouth if he did.
WOW, just WOW!!
