The giant dollops of mockery we heaped on The New York Times for its goofy and embarrassing traffic ticket story didn’t make a dent. The ink had barely dried on that one when they pushed out another one about Marco Rubio’s “troubling” financial history.
Wow, yeah. We really need to have “recurring doubts” about letting a man like THAT sit in the Oval Office. I mean, sheesh. He hasn’t even got a bogus charity foundation to handle illegal slush funds or nothing! What kind of politician is he?!
Plus, let’s NOT go electing some elitist type who owns a “high-end SUV” or a “luxury speedboat” the rest of us can’t afford!
Do you smell the fear … and the hypocrisy?
Tweeters informed us of other notable events in the #RubioSpendingSpree:
Marco Rubio sprung for the undercoating AND extended warranty.
Marco Rubio once paid extra for overnight delivery.
Marco Rubio lets his kids eat name brand cereals.
Marco Rubio put a twenty into the Santa bucket and didn’t ask for change.
Mrs. Rubio’s traffic violations are news that’s fit to print, but the self-proclaimed newspaper of record has taken scanty interest in the peregrinations offormer president Bill Clinton aboard an airplane nicknamed The Lolita Express,bearing him to a destination with an even worse nickname — “Pedophile Island” —in the company of Jeffrey Epstein, today a convicted sex offender.
Remember when scores of journalists were sent to Wasilla to dig through the Palin’s trash while totally ignoring a mountain of scandal-worthy trash about Obama?
Well, we’re into a new election cycle and so that paragon of journalistic integrity, The New York Times, is back at it, digging deep to give voters the most relevant information possible about presidential hopefuls.
No, not that silly old “Hillary sold uranium to our enemies” story! This is something IMPORTANT!
June 5, 2015: The New York Times broke the news that, over the past 18 years, Republican Marco Rubio has racked up FOUR traffic tickets!
Thank goodness we have the Fourth Estate! We certainly wouldn’t want to accidentally vote for someone who had so little respect for rules and regulations, right?
Nasty Right-Wingnuts started a vile rumor that The New York Times had not actually researched this scoop for itself, but had just printed a story that was handed to them by a Democrat PAC.
Noooooooooooooooooo wayyyyyyyyyyyyy!Yes, way.
But, but … HILLARY has had ZERO traffic tickets!
Of course, the last time she drove herself anywhere, Marco was six years old, but whatever. Who do you suppose insisted the Scooby Van be parked illegally? And if anyone had had the temerity to ticket it, who do you suppose got stuck with the big honkin’ fine? Just askin’ here. NOT suggesting she’s … you know … an ELITIST or nuthin’.
But never mind HILLARY. Let’s see what’s up next in #RubioCrimeSpree news!
Marco Rubio drinks milk RIGHT FROM THE CARTON.
Marco Rubio removed the tag from his mattresses and then DESTROYED THE EVIDENCE.
Marco Rubio lathers, rinse but does NOT REPEAT.
Marco Rubio clicked “I agree” WITHOUT READING THE FINE PRINT.
Marco Rubio took the trash out but DIDN’T PUT A NEW LINER IN.
Marco Rubio used his outdoor voice INSIDE THE HOUSE.
Marco Rubio once PICKED ALL THE MARSHMALLOWS out of the Lucky Charms box.
Not everyone thought the crime spree hashtag was funny. One libtard opined,
“If there’s one thing to take away from this #RubioCrimeSpree thing it’s that some people think putting others at risk is a joking matter.”
Yeah. Really! Cuz traffic tickets are SERIOUS!
Not at all like REMOVING security from a threatened consulate!
“We are at the water’s edge of the argument that mainstream Christian teaching is hate speech. Because today we’ve reached the point in our society where if you do not support same-sex marriage, you are labeled a homophobe and a hater …. the next step is to argue that the teachings of mainstream Christianity, the catechism of the Catholic Church, is hate speech.”
Nancy Pelosi:
“I thoroughly disagree (with Rubio’s opposition to gay marriage), being raised in a Catholic family … the Baltimore Catechism, to get back to our hometown of Baltimore, was what we were raised on. And I think that this statement by Senator Rubio is most unfortunate. It’s a polarizing statement. The fact is, is that what we’re taught was to respect people in our faith and to say that this endangers mainstream Christian thinking is so completely wrong.”
Pelosi said she thought Rubio’s statement was “unfortunate” … not because it isn’t true, but because it’s “polarizing.”Whatever that means. And to prove how very correct and Catholic she is, she mentioned how she had been raised Catholic and had raised a Catholic family. Then she added, “I don’t even think that Pope Francis would subscribe to what Marco Rubio just said.”
Uhhhhhhhhhh … no.
In June 2014, Pope Francis said that ensuring people’s right to live their religious values is increasingly difficult in the modern world “where weak thinking — this is a sickness — lowers the level of ethics in general and, in the name of a false understanding of tolerance, ends up persecuting those who defend the truth about the human person and its ethical consequences.”
Oh wait … “a false understanding of tolerance” … THAT’S what “polarizing” is about.
In March 2014, Pope Francis presented President Obama with a copy of his apostolic exhortation Evangelii Gaudium (“The Joy of the Gospel”), which criticizes some public figures who attempt to marginalize the pro-life message by presenting it as “ideological, obscurantist, and conservative.”
Pelosi is a long-time supporter of abortion and says she supports Hillary Clinton’s 2016 bid for the White House. Clinton recently opined that it isn’t enough for abortion to be legal. “Religious beliefs” about abortion also “have to be changed.”
DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz said this about Senator Marco Rubio:
“I see him as a Flat Earth society worshiper … essentially a prune [with] some tinsel around it.”
Debbie insisted we need someone “fresh and new” to run the country.
Maybe Debbie’s real problem with Marco is that she’s a RAAAAAAAAAAACIST. I mean … a person can’t possibly disagree with someone else’s political positions, right? It’s ALWAYS gotta be about their race or gender or age or sexual orientation, right?
May 21, 2014: The House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed (390 to 33) the Veterans Affairs Management Accountability Act. If the Senate passes and the President signs this bill into law, it would be much easier (read: possible) for the scandal-plagued VA to fire employees based on poor performance (read: clean out dead wood). YAYS were bipartisan; NAYS came from Democrats ONLY.
May 22, 2014: The day before Memorial Day weekend started, Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) asked for the Senate to bring this bill to a vote.Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT) objected on behalf of Senate Democrats. As chair of the Senate Committee on Veterans Affairs, Sanders has the power to delay ANY action on this important bill INDEFINITELY. He says in the video below he is going to hold a HEARING …. in June.
Senate Dems Block Veterans Bill [:33]
Q. Guess who hates the idea of dead wood getting fired?
A. The UNION that protects said dead wood from accountability.
Q. Guess what Socialist Senator is owned by the UNIONS?
A. Bernie Sanders.
Remember back in 2009 when Democrats kept screaming about how Republicans opposed Obamacare because we supposedly WANTED people to DIE?
Democrat Alan Grayson Claims “Republicans Want You To Die” (:19)
May 15, 2014: Senator Sanders justified his “sit on all VA reform legislation until hell freezes over” policy by telling CNN “We know that people die every day.”
Sanders also claimed, “There are problems, and we have got to get at those problems. But we need the facts to lead us to where we want to go.” But Congress AND the TWO presidents have KNOWN SINCE 2005 that the VA was failing veterans by delaying care, wasting money and falsifying their records!
Sanders NEVER served in the military, so why is he CHAIR of the Senate’s Committee on Veterans Affairs? Because he votes the way Harry Reid tells him to vote. Officially, he is an Independent (not a Democrat), but he describes himself as a “Democratic Socialist” which means he’s not the centrist his Independent status might suggest, but rather a Progressive Obamacrat.
Between at 5 a.m. and 11 p.m. Wednesday, MSNBC played the tape of Sen. Marco Rubio taking a drink of water 155 times. Rachel “There’s No Preamble to the Constitution” Maddow played it 101 times in a row during her show.
The meme was that his awkward pause to wet his whistle was going to End His Career! (They wish. It gripes ’em No End that the Hispanic Senator from Florida is … gasp … a Republican.)
Methinks they made such an absurdly big deal about this because they couldn’t risk talking about anything he had actually SAID.
A special thank you to my dear friend,Ting,who turned me on to this site shortly after its inception.Yesterday was my 250th post.Being a part of this family has given me a sense of peace and self-worth that cannot be measured.I will continue to try to entertain,inform and perhaps provoke some thought as only the truly deranged and seriousy delusional can do.
CBO:LONGEST PERIOD OF HIGH UNEMPLOYMENT SINCE THE GREAT DEPRESSION
This really frosts me.While Bush was president and the GOP controlled both houses, we had 51 straight months of employment gains.Unemployment was 4.5% and all the media pigs could whine about was a ‘jobless recovery.’ Remember?Now they trumpet any bit of positive news,even if fraudulent, as a sign things are getting better somehow. http://www.usnews.com/news/articles/2012/02/16/cbo-longest-period-of-high-unemployment-since-great-depression
SORRY,FOLKS.I JUST CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF THIS MAN.I KEEP ASKING WHY HE ISN’T OUR NOMINEE?
MAXIE CLAMS UP AND RUNS WHEN CONFRONTED ABOUT HER GOP ‘DEMONS’ INSULT
People of low moral character and no courage never want to be held accountable for their actions.

I can’t remember if I posted this before.Hell,I can’t remember getting up this morning.
KASSOPEDIA:THE ONLY URBAN DICTIONARY YOU’LL EVER NEED
John Kass is a columnist for my employer,The Chicago Tribune.These are hilarious.
Chumbolone (pronounced Chum-buh-loan): Now listed in Urban Dictionary as a moron, idiot and long-suffering Illinois taxpayer since we keep eating what they serve us. “I gave him lip service. I didn’t know what he was talking about. I don’t wanna look like a chumbolone, an idiot, stupid,” former Chicago cop and Chinatown errand boy Anthony “Twan” Doyle said from the witness stand in the “Operation Family Secrets” trial.
CHICAGO TEACHERS ASK FOR 30% RAISES OVER TWO YEARS
Now you know why my state is $14 billion in debt.
If you click on the link,the giant hippopotamus with the cornrows is the the head(and belly) of the Chicago Teachers Mob,Karen Lewis.Mayor Tiny Dancer should tell her to shut the hell up and go eat another dozen cheeseburgers.
I often fantasize,of late,about my speech accepting the nomination for president.One of my points would be naming an AG who will charge Holder with manslaughter in the death of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry.
