Conservative leaders criticize Boehner for calling Cruz ‘Lucifer in the flesh’

(CNSNews.com) – Conservative leaders were sharply critical of former House Speaker John Boehner for saying in an appearance at Stanford University on Wednesday that Sen. Ted Cruz was "Lucifer in the flesh."
"This level of discourse is disappointing, especially coming from a former party leader like Speaker Boehner. All members of our party—and especially our leaders—should be above calling each other names, let alone accusing each other of being Satan," Sen. Mike Lee (R-UT) told CNSNews.com.
