Mark Levin eviscerating that piece of human garbage Marco
Rubio...
* * *
I was among the first national radio hosts to support
Marco Rubio in his uphill Republican primary campaign for the Senate against
the unprincipled Florida Governor Charlie Crist. Back then, he ran as an unabashed Tea Party
conservative.
* KEY WORDS: "RAN AS..."
I also supported Mike Lee and Ted Cruz, among others, in
their campaigns against the entrenched GOP establishment.
* TRUE TEA PARTY CONSERVATIVES!
Soon after arriving in Washington, Rubio decided to throw
in with these politicians – including John McCain and Lindsey Graham and take
an active leadership role in the Gang of Eight fiasco.
* YEP...
As he runs for the Republican presidential nomination,
Rubio has attempted to redefine his position on immigration yet again,
resulting in his utter incoherence on the subject.
* RUBIO IS A TOTAL FAKE, PHONY FRAUD. PERIOD.
Moreover, Rubio’s views on foreign policy are also more
in line with McCain-Graham pseudo-conservativism. It is a kind of naïve and
radical interventionism, involving endless demands for American ground forces,
that President Ronald Reagan would never have supported – and did not.
* EXACTLY RIGHT!
For example, Rubio’s support for the overthrow of Muammar
Gaddafi, joining with Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and, of course, McCain and
Graham, has not led to democracy. Instead, Libya has become another extremely
dangerous and growing stronghold for Islamic terrorists and a direct threat to
our country.
* YEP. FOOLS LIKE RUBIO END UP GETTING AMERICANS KILLED
AND END UP MAKING THE WORLD A MORE DANGEROUS PLACE!
“Democracy projects” have also led to the overthrow of
the Shah of Iran during Jimmy Carter’s presidency, ushering in the current
Islamic terrorist state that directly threatens America, as well as the more
recent rise of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, which was eventually ousted by
the Egyptian military, and so forth.
* REMEMBER HOW OBAMA AND CLINTON WERE FOR THE MUSLIM
BROTHERHOOD BEFORE THEY WERE AGAINST THEM?
(*SNORT*)
Democracy requires more than an election. It requires,
first and foremost, a civil society. I’ve talked about this a great length on
my radio program. But my commentary here is not intended as a thorough analysis
of immigration and foreign policies, which may come in a later essay. This is a
friendly warning to Marco Rubio and his campaign donors, advisers, and
consultants that they cannot wash away some of Rubio’s less than stellar
legislative actions and related positions and pronouncements by embracing and
unleashing Saul Alinsky-type tactics against Ted Cruz or other conservatives. Such
unprincipled ambition has not and will not go unnoticed by conservatives.
* "UNPRINCIPLED." YEP. THAT'S RUBIO! I'D VOTE
FOR THE PIECE OF GARBAGE IF HE WERE MY ONLY CHOICE AGAINST HILLARY CLINTON OR
SOME OTHER (BIGGER) PIECE OF $HIT... BUT LET'S PRAY IT DOESN'T COME TO THAT
HOBSON'S CHOICE.
Rather than proudly standing on his own record, and
contrasting his positions honestly with those of Cruz, the latter of whom is
clearly the more conservative and anti-establishment candidate, Rubio and his
surrogates have launched a propaganda campaign against Cruz in a deceitful
attempt to distort his record.
* YEP. THAT'S THE KIND OF GUY RUBIO IS...
(*SIGH*)
As an activist in Ronald Reagan’s 1976 and 1980 primary
and general election campaigns for president, I can tell you this is also
something Reagan did not do as he was proud of his record and sought a true
battle over ideas with the GOP establishment and liberal Democrats. However,
his primary and general election opponents over the years -- Gerald Ford,
George H.W. Bush, Jimmy Carter, or Walter Mondale -- preferred the route Rubio
has now taken – distortion and personal smears.
(*NOD*)
Now let’s get to specifics. Did you know that Ted Cruz is not supportive
of Israel? For anyone who has followed Cruz’s career, it would be like accusing
Jeff Sessions of supporting amnesty. Oh wait, Rubio has already done that!
The Rubio campaign has also accused Cruz of being weak on
immigration, weak on national security, and even supportive of Syria’s Assad! And
we conservatives are supposedly so stupid we will fall for all of it!
* UNFORTUNATELY... A GREAT MANY MORONS IDENTIFY AS
"CONSERVATIVES." THEY'RE NOT.
At each stage, there has been an almost seamless
coordination with Republican establishment media at the Wall Street Journal,
Fox News, Weekly Standard and Commentary Magazine, to do the bidding of the
Rubio campaign – no matter how false and preposterous the assertion.
* WHAT DO I KEEP TELLING YOU FOLKS...? HMM...???
Late last week, the Weekly Standard obsequiously peddled
the Rubio campaign attack that Cruz voted to cut funding for Israel’s defense
as part of his support for Rand Paul’s budget in 2013. The Rubio transcribers
there are claiming that the Paul budget, which balanced the budget in 5 years,
“among other cuts, slashed defense funding and international aid, including aid
to Israel.”
This is breathtakingly dishonest.
Aside from Cruz and Paul, 16 other Republicans, including
Mike Lee, Tom Coburn and Jeff Sessions, voted for the budget. The notion that
one can pull out any single provision of a massive budget, which doesn’t set
policy, in order to attack an opponent is wittingly disingenuous, as witnessed
by some of the pro-Israel conservative champions who voted for it.
* AGAIN... RUBIO IS A MENDACIOUS PIECE OF $HIT.
Indeed, the Weekly Standard omitted that the Paul budget
zeroed out all aid to Israel’s enemies and terrorist entities like the
Palestinians.
(*SMIRK*)
If it is fair to say Cruz voted against aid for Israel by
supporting the broader Paul budget, it is equally fair to say that Rubio voted
to continue aiding anti-Israel governments and terrorists because he opposed
the Paul budget. It would then be also equally fair to suggest that Rubio
opposes a balanced budget.
(*NOD*)
The Rubio campaign’s notion that Cruz opposes Israel’s
Iron Dome program because it was one provision in the massive National Defense
Authorization Act (NDAA), which he voted against, is also absurd. There have
been many reasons to oppose the NDAA that include both the policy and the
actual process. For example, last year’s 1,648 page NDAA bill was voted on less
than two days after the text was posted online and contained a massive federal
land grab.
Or... [how about] the time Harry Reid allowed only 2
amendment votes on arguably the most important annual bill. And each time the
future of the Iron Dome was not hinging upon passage of this entire bill. Rubio
and his media cheerleaders know it.
* AGAIN... RUBIO AND HIS CHEERLEADERS ARE SCUM.
(*SHRUG*)
But we need not focus on one line item of a broader, more
important, balanced budget vote. A cursory glance at Cruz’s brief career in the
Senate reveals a record of standing for Israel on more fronts and with more
force than any other senator in modern history, including Rubio, who is
undoubtedly a supporter of Israel as well.
* I'M A SUPPORTER OF ISRAEL MYSELF! DOESN'T MEAN I WANNA
SEND THEM MY TAX DOLLARS! CERTAINLY DOESN'T MEAN I WANNA BORROW MONEY FROM
CHINA IN ORDER TO SEND IT TO ISRAEL - OR TO ANY FOREIGN COUNTRY! BUT... I'M
WITH MARK ON THE HYPOCRISY AND POLITICS OF DECEIT PRACTICED BY RUBIO AND HIS
CHEERLEADERS.
There was perhaps no vote that had a more deleterious
effect on Israel than the nomination by Obama of John Kerry for Secretary of
State. Rubio supported the nomination and voted to confirm Kerry.
* 'NOUGH SAID!
Cruz was one of only three Republicans to oppose
him.
* AGAIN... 'NOUGH SAID!
And Kerry has been an unmitigated disaster across a wide
range of foreign policy issues.
Cruz has used his committee assignments, legislation,
floor speeches, and media appearances to fight against Obama’s war on Israel.
* NOT TO MENTION FIGHT AGAINST OBAMA'S WAR AGAINST
AMERICA! OBAMA'S ONGOING WAR WAGED AGAINST HIS OWN COUNTRY! "FUNDAMENTAL
CHANGE," FOLKS; THAT'S OBAMA'S SELF-DECLARED POLICY!
Cruz’s other actions include:
Using his subcommittee chairmanship to conduct hearings
on Obama’s refusal to follow a court order and grant restitution to American
victims of terror in Israel; introducing legislation to designate the Muslim
Brotherhood, a sister of Hamas, as a terror group; and, during the Israel-Hamas
war, when Obama imposed a de facto travel embargo on Israel, Cruz shut it down
within 24 hours after he threatened to block all State Department nominees from
confirmation.
Nobody did more to fight the Iran deal harnessing every
messaging tool at his disposal [than Cruz].
Rubio’s major legislative achievement in the Senate? The
Gang of Eight travesty.
(*JUST SHAKING MY HEAD IN DISGUST*)
Rubio would be wise to focus on what he has done for
conservatives on national security or any other issue. But this is where he may
be having some difficulty. His record is thin. As I [must constantly remind his
supporters, Rubio’s major legislative achievement in the Senate was the Gang of
Eight travesty. This bill would have created permanent open borders, invited
back countless dangerous aliens who were already deported, and created an
unlimited new pipeline of immigration and refugees from the Middle East.
To this day, Rubio defends his Gang of Eight role, while
simultaneously trying to distance himself from aspects of the bill!
Last week, Rubio also refused to vote for Rand Paul’s
plan to pause the flow of refugees entering our country from the Middle East or
other areas of the world where terrorism is pervasive.
(*SIGHING*)
Given ISIS’s promise to hide terrorists among refugees,
including those from Syria, which they accomplished in the recent slaughter in
Paris, and the incompetence of the Obama’s administration’s vetting processes,
prudence should have guided Rubio to vote for the Paul plan – if he is the
national security hawk he and his media surrogates claims him to be.
(*NODDING*)
Furthermore, the notion that Rubio is little different
from Cruz on immigration, as suggested by Rubio and his campaign, ignores the
dichotomy between the two of them on every aspect of this issue. Cruz fought
tooth and nail to block the Gang of Eight bill. Rubio championed it.
Cruz has led the fight against DACA, DAPA, sanctuary
cities, and Obama’s lawless refugee policies, while Rubio has remained largely
silent.
The truth matters.
* YES! YES IT DOES! AND PEOPLE NEED TO FACE THIS TRUTH!
Rubio has accused opponents of the earlier NSA metadata
collection system, in particular Cruz, of being national security doves. In
fact, he has even warned them that if the country is attacked as a result of
the new law’s judicial review requirement, which was spearheaded by Mike Lee
and voted for by, among others, Cruz, they will be responsible for weakening
the nation’s defense. Yet there’s not even one example of the earlier metadata
collection system stopping terrorism.
In the latest terrorist attack in San Bernardino, Rubio
fails to mention that despite the telephonic activities, apparently the killers
somehow avoided NSA notice.
There are honest disagreements about this program, based
on legitimate constitutional issues, but to insist that constitutional
conservatives, like Cruz, who backed a modified metadata program, are weak on
defending America is contemptible.
* YEP! UTTERLY CONTEMPTIBLE!
As Rubio knows, Sen. Steve Daines voted with Cruz, as did
Sen. Cory Gardner, both of whom are supporting Rubio.
* RUBIO IS A PIECE OF $HIT...
(*SPITTING ON THE GROUND*)
For now, I will stop here.
Marco Rubio is a talented man who can potentially
contribute a lot to this presidential race in the remaining months. But that
will only happen if he abandons his Alinsky tactics for a more Reaganesque
approach and treats the conservative electorate with the respect it
deserves.
If Rubio is proud of his record, then he should defend
it.
If he objects to Cruz’s record, he should challenge it.
