Item 1: Other than 2 arms, 2 legs, NEVER admit of any similarity to BO
Marco Rubio Looks in the Mirror and Sees a Republican Obama
OK we sort of know what Marco means and all, and this is the New York Times presenting and interpreting, but with all that said Marco should not try to be so clever or shocking or ironic with his answers . The country is not after glib right now, we have that and it does not work so well. The people see that both political parties as currently led are part of the problem. Not equally, to be sure, as the Democrats have led the assault rejecting limited government, the assaults on the Constitution and the culture. The Republican Party leadership has been weak when strength is necessary.
FRANKLIN, N.H. — It is a slur that would make most conservatives wince: You’re a Republican Barack
And for most of his presidential campaign, Marco Rubio — first-term senator, former state legislator, onetime college professor and fresh face for a party with a fusty image — has always had an answer for why the comparison was unfair.
He has more experience than Mr. Obama had when he first ran for president, Mr. Rubio argues. And Mr. Obama is a failure, he says, because of his ideology, not his biography.
But now the Florida senator is taking a sharply different approach. His answer to the often-asked question about how he would be any different from the president is: He wouldn’t, really.
This year’s success for hostages to receive money was in large part due to efforts by supporters like top Senate Democrat Harry Reid (pictured above)
Some more of the credit the GOP got for its surrender OmniBUS. Taxpayers were definitely thrown under that “bus”. Thanks Paul and Mitch!
Item 2: No one should take credit for this
And then came news of the possibility that survivors of the 1979 hostage taking by Iran will get perhaps $10,000 for each day of their being held (most were held 444 days). The money is supposedly coming from fines levied against a bank that violated certain international prohibitions on trade with Iran. Sounds good in some respects, except that there are serious implications as to the amount and prioritization. The authorization was part of the recently passed omnibus spending bill. That pig should not be claimed by any human father.
