Rubio, A Bullet America Dodged

Most of this stuff that we did not hear till he dropped out

Rise and stall: The political trajectory of Marco Rubio | Tampa Bay Times

And boy they had it ready, as soon as he announces he is done we hear all about what a lazy prick he is, how many months/years did they sit on this information?

It just goes to show the media's complete abdication of their jobs. They certainly don't hesitate to throw dirt at Trump but Rubio had skeletons galore and the only thing the media tried to focus on was the laughable "he has unpaid parking tickets" or "his parents didn't really escape from Castro's Cuba". And people wonder why the media is completely untrustworthy in this day and age. God knows the amount of dirt the media is trying to ignore in regards to Hillary in order to prop her up.

Amen.

Seriously, these are not good times, we the people need to be smart enough to pay attention to and deal with what matters. For over a generation we have failed at this and a lot more.

Our kids and grandkids will pay for it.

That's a long read, but a good one. It's obvious that even Rubio's fellow republicans don't trust him, many see him as disloyal. It speaks volumes that many of his past 'allies' have refused to endorse him.

But as far as dirt and skeletons being reported on, let's be fair, this is only the primaries. If Trump wins the nom we can be sure there's a ton more skeletons in his closet that haven't been reported on yet.

Rubio is a petulant child, which Trump did quite well in exposing.

check this out:

He said he “saw the bottom fall out of our support” after the March 1 elections, when Rubio won Minnesota but lost everywhere else.

“The media kind of just said, ‘Marco Rubio had a terrible night, and it looks like the strongest anti-Trump alternative is Ted Cruz,’” Rubio said.

Of course, there was a pretty good reason why the media “kind of just said” that Rubio had a “terrible night” on Super Tuesday: He literally had a terrible night on Super Tuesday. In fact, if the media only kind of just said Rubio had a bad outcome that night, it was actually being quite nice to him.

Marco Rubio Blames The Media For His Wrecked Presidential Ambitions

check this out:

Rubio seems like a typical modern day Republican. He blames everyone, but himself. He ran a terrible campaign, and the beating Christie gave him showed Rubio's true colors and that he's nothing but an empty suit. In his eyes though he probably sees the beating Christie gave him as the media's fault too, they kept the cameras running and reported on it.

Yep, we did dodge a bullet.
 
Behind the Marco bullet we dodged are 2 other artillery rounds headed our way, Clinton and Trump.
 
you could always tell Lil Marco was a broke, lying, speed addled weasel
 
You're not a Government employee when you're not in the budget anymore. sheesh
Okay? Federal employees have shrunk under Obama. Are you now admitting you were initially wrong and I'm right?

You're just trolling now. Why does the AMA disagree with IPAB/death panels? I already gave you their quote. Figure it out.
I've already answered this question, why did you ask it again?
Overstepping Presidential authority can be a power grab whoever does it. When an Leftist ideologue does it it's definitely a power grab.
:lamo

Here's what I just heard you say, "Sure every president does it, but it's only bad when a Democrat does it. And since Obama has done what all the other presidents do, obviously all the fear-mongering the Republicans kept spewing was true".

In other words, all I heard was partisanship.

Obama worked to prevent Government LAW from going into effect.
His job is to enact and enforce law and he didn't try to prevent it from going into effect, he simply delayed it. Think about where your partisanship has led you...you are literally now blaming Obama for BOTH the governmental oppression of Obamacare (which doesn't actually exist) AND for delaying parts of Obamacare, which he has the legal authority to do. Furthermore, you're trying to claim Obama tried to prevent his own signature achievement from going into effect, which is even more hilarious since you used said signature achievement as evidence Obama wants to ruin America!

Here's essentially what you are saying: "Obama wants to ruin America by implementing big government Obamacare, so that's why he's trying to prevent Obamacare from going into effect".

In other words, you are not making any sense and you have literally contradicted yourself on this in your transparent attempt to engage in blatant partisanship. I would stop if I were you.

No need for you to post your long position paper regaling us about the benefits of big Government and authoritarian control.
I didn't say I had one. I said my feelings on proper size of the government was lengthy, not the benefits of large government.

Is it really so difficult for you to simply respond to reality and not make stuff up?

You just spent a half dozen posts defending it so that's the answer.
No, I spent half a dozen posts proving how wrong you were, to the point where even you now have to agree with how wrong you were.
Thanks ... finally.
Anytime...like I said, I'm always here to correct inaccuracies and stupidity.
