  • Wow... I love this guy!

  • AMAZING How people still buy into the left/right lie. wake up, it's pro wrestling.

  • RUBIO VOTED FOR THE NDAA BILL AND PATRIOT ACT.

    HE IS A FRAUD AND NO FRIEND OF FREEDOM.

  • @rogerable77 you mean he is not a friend for freedom of terrorists, right? good for him, good for us, not good for you and your islamist friends, you fucking occupier

  • @vlembik I'm a real conservative, not a neocon like yourself. you have a better chance of being struck by lightning,or being bitten by a shark than being killed by a terrorist....you have no understanding of history...read what the founders said about giving up rights for security.....so keep giving up your rights like a scared little girl.

  • Comment removed

  • Marco Rubio represents REAL hope and change.

  • So how do other countries deal with healthcare...?

  • Marco Rubio sucks.. He clearly lives in a world of misinformation. Conservatives are a dying breed supporting a dying ideology. Liberals don't have to bash conservatives to make them look horrible. They do that all to well on their own. Only reason Marco Rubio was elected is because he is of Cuban decent and the old Cuban crowd love that.. They vote blindly. Its sad.

  • This guy is in debt up to his eyeballs!!!

  • BABOSILLO

  • Marco Rubio should be our next president

  • RUBIO VOTED FOR THE NDAA BILL.

  • @rogerable77 ...and? Good for him and the president.

  • @ImClayMoore why don't you like the bill of rights and constitution?

  • RUBIO VOTED FOR THE NDAA BILL.

  • I may not agree with Rubio on everything, but he at least seems like a decent man. We need to start analyzing character and intellectual consistency if we want things to change.

  • Its only a matter of time before the liberals find something idiotic to hold against this guy.

  • It is an insane fallacy to think that just because your political opponents speak negatively towards a certain government official that that official is doing wonderful things. Many of you mindless twits have said some form of "The liberals are saying mean things so Rubio must be great." Rubio is in Jeb! Bush's pocket, and the last Bush Dynasty protege, Mel Martinez, went down in a ball of flames on his own accord.

  • Uh, war is fine as long as you take a country's recourses when you win or after helping them fight another country. Why we stopped having colonies is belong me. The Europeans had them until the 1960's

  • @hobbo3003 The quest for empire has bankrupted and taken down every great nation in world history....UK, Spain,Rome,Greece,ussr..to name a few. The only thing keeping the usa going right now, is the ability to print unlimited money to finance the empire we have. When the world stops excepting the devalued dollar, we will become a third world nation, almost over night.

  • you should run for President! we need more like you in congress. God Bless You.

  • This guy is the coming conservative juggernaut. It will be interesting to see what lies the Left will use in their attempts to discredit him.

  • @Markus77x7 See what lies the Left will use against him? Rubio should have never claimed that Reagan defined the role of government better than any American has done before, I'm pretty sure that Andrew Jackson was and is the only President we've had in our nation's history who left office with no national debt what so ever. A surplus doesn't mean all that much when the peoples' tax dollars can't hardly even pay off the enormous interest we've accrued as a nation since 1913.

  • He just used his own ignorance against himself. There is no Republicans or Democrats, the only difference between the parties is what they want to waste money on and right now both sides are wasting it on the two things that got us into this economic downfall, war and social programs. People need to wake up and realize that our government does not care whatsoever about the middle class and neither does the corporate world.

  • You should know that Hispanics are descendants from European Spain.They are the Cubans, Puerto Ricans and others fron South America except Brazil. Do not confuse with Mexican and Spouth American natives who are part Latinos and native Indians, but nos Hispanics.

  • @gladowl

    Yes finally somebody that tells the truth, and people of spain are traditionally called hispanic but in the end their Europeans and their white. When I lived in spain there was darker skinned people with darker eyes and hair such as rubio who looks and is white, than their was more of the northern european not so Italy and Spain look such as blue/green eyes blonde, burnett hair. But people from spain are hispanics but white, and South America has the native american/ mayan ancestery.

  • He then would had been born in cuba and like so politically talented he would had been the next cuban dictator

  • This guy benefited from u.s. Immigration policies and now hes against them I wish they had those anti-immigration when his parents came in1956 and throw they asses back to cuba

  • Under Regan., CA went from 20th to 13th in personal income tax collected & from 4th to 1st. per capita revenue from corporate income taxes.

    Reagan increased federal spending by 53%, added 250,000 new gov't employees, expanded the unconstitutional War on Drugs, created “drug czar's" & debased your 1980 dollar to 73 cents. Carter's $74B deficit ballooned to $155B under Reagan who imposed a 100% tariff on selected Japanese electronics.

    Google: "The Reagan Fraud — and After"

    NeoCon!

  • Clearly by the venom spewed by the liberals this man is quite a threat to them. They only react like vipers when cornered. They're right to be afraid, he's going to make his mark in history some day and they won't like it.

    emmilene

  • As a Latino, I rather have a Caucasian (white) president than a Token Latino president who exploits his own kind to please the white man. Fuck him, he will never get the Latino vote with his anti Latino community friends he has no shot at the white house.

  • Run for president lol no matter how much he kisses the white mans ass he is still a spic come on he looks like a native taino indian from cuba

  • Please please please run for prez, and more importantly, please please please don't let Washington change what you believe. 

  • That was a great speech... I wish he would be running for president because he would beat Obama so bad, his head would ring for the first four years of Marco's presidency. Maybe not this election cycle but, I think that one day this man will become one of our presidents.

  • This so called cuban american piece of shit wanna be caucasian is anti immigrant and his parents are immigrants themselves ironic I know real cubans from cuba they good people but marco is a pig

  • @TheJayster571 ,

    He's not anti-immigrant but anti-ILLEGAL immigrant.

    Not surprised a liberal like yourself can't distinguish the difference.

  • Guy sounds as articulate as Obama. Same guys pulling the strings I bet...

  • I want Marco Rubio as my president, as i have none now

  • i hope Rubio breaks down and gets in the primary very soon...i think he would win easily.

  • There is hope!

    I think he gets it

  • hahaha

  • marco rubio has no soul. he is an agent for the bankers.

  • @imamrauf

    Personally attack the man because that will prove something.. Typical..

    But I shouldn't argue with an idiot. He or she will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.

  • @SemperBadBear

    lol great response...never argue with an idiot cuz they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience...i love it, you are so right.

  • Marco Rubio is the kind of compassionate leader that this nation desperately needs.

  • @AnswerManSam really? he wants to keep on getting his health benefits and even thanked medicare and medicaid for taking care of his now deceased father and SS for taking care of his mother. now he wants to take it away because he's a pimp for the tea bag party. can you say hypocrite?

  • Congress--12% approval rating.  Obama - 40% approval rating. When you have a republican stand up and say his FIRST priority is making Obama a one term president--not "we'll work with the president to make things better"...the more a reality it seems the Republicans worst nightmare would be for things to get better because Obama might get re-elected.

  • @1donofrio1 well buddy, the fact is simple: with obama at the wheel and continuing to promote policies which have not worked, things will NOT get better in his next 14 months in power. There is no chance things will improve except for the fact that the independents have realized that his BS was just that: BS. Campaign promises to "fix things immediately, well, no, things are so bad, it'll take time" --- he will be out of time, and out of office. Then things WILL improve. 1and done

  • @oAndJoegottago - Then the Republicans number one priority is to make sure this good man is only a one term president will have succeeded. Imagine had their number one priority be the good of all of us--to participate in the process instead of blocking it--to want to negotiate instead of reject - to say "I don't agree on what the president believes but we will WORK TOGETHER" - what could have been achieved. No--only election results - sound bites - divisive speech.

  • @1donofrio1 Were you paying attention for the first 2 yrs of "this good man's" term?? There wasn't any negotiating or bipartisanship. Obama, Pelosi, and Reid went crazy on all the progressive programs they knew they would pay for in '10. It's pretty hard to negotiate with someone who won't put a plan on paper and stand by that plan. Where's Obma's plan?? He talks alot of ideas and opinions but just like when he was a Senator he votes "present".

  • I love how the left calls us conservatives "uneducated" but they were the ones that were fooled by the community organizer and picked THE worst President EVER. So tell me guys, did Obama pay for your mortgage yet? Is that comment "uneducated"? So, when is this "hope and change" supposed to kick in? To quote the great Capt. James T. Kirk from the movie Wrath of Khan: "I'm laughing at the superior intellect". Better luck next time liberals......please know that we are laughing at you morons.

  • MARCO $ PRESIDENT NOW!!!! Bless ........

  • Rubio=First Latino-American President GOP ROCKS!!!

  • Because Mario speaks the truth and eloquently the liberal left is filled with fear and trembling because his wisdom and leadership will put some of the leeches and non-working bloodsuckers out of business. So scared are you I can see that it is hard to find videos of him yet Al Gore can spin his venom unheeded. You can't stop it a better change is coming and maybe if you listen the truth shall set you free.

  • Hey Mutedvox: The trouble with all od you liberal commie sympathizer mooches is you have your heads stuck in your nether regions never to be extracted. It's too bad you are beyond help and anti-American besides. You have those thoughts but aren't they really projections of your own inert thinking process?

    Ron

  • @hbaronaz so rub isn't a hypocrite? perhaps you need to have a colonoscopy to find your brain and see that he speaks out of both sides of his mouth. the video of him praising SS, Medicare, Medicaid for his parents and then his total shift against it isn't proof enough? he says whatever is politically popular which means he can't think for himself. neither can vacuous people like you! 

  • @Mutedvox Rub? Vacuous? Still projecting ?  That all you got? BTW how did you get hypocrite out of anything I wrote? Don't bother to answer. I'm sure it would be too childish to dignify with a response.

    Ron

  • @hbaronaz see, you don't pay attention. I called rub a hypocrite. now go back to sleep.....

  • This speech is eerily reminicsent of Reagan's own "Time For Choosing" speech of 1964.

    I can honestly tell you all: THIS...is a great man.

    Rubius Magnus for President, by 2020? I hope so!

  • @RushLimborg rubio the muppet. who's working his mouth?

  • Remarkable speech, remarkable leader.. one day he could be President.

  • It's too bad the left knows so much that isn't true. One day when they read a book or two that is written by someone who isn't a useful idiot maybe, just maybe, they'll wake up. Hope springs eternal.

    Ron

  • @hbaronaz  funny, we have the same thought and wish for you neocons. we believe that you're in a terminal coma with no sign of reviving.

  • @Rushtrdamus This is my last post to you, as you are a snivelling, juvenile, potty mouth with a 2nd grade education and an excess of self-esteem.

    Hitler was an atheist, not a Christian, and he persecuted Christians frequently. My grandfather in law was one of these persecuted Christians. You are so full of hate, it has blinded your ability to learn, to think, and to love. You have my sincerest condolences.

  • @franceseattle BULLSHIT, read his fucking book, you retard. It's chock full of his faith and belief in Jesus. You have a right to your own opinion, you DO NOT have a right to your own facts. The SS had belt buckles that read "Got Min Uns" It means God is with us. Sure he persecuted some christians, because they opposed him, not because they were christian. Hell, Hitlers FIRST treaty was with the vatican for fuck's sake.

    You are a dipshit, enough said.

  • This man makes me proud to be an American again. One of the best speeches I have ever heard.

  • @coltor9 We had 12% interest because it had gone DOWN from the 18-19% interest rates we had under Pres. Carter. I don't think you have your history right. The economy was great all through the 1980s, and would have continued so, had Democrats been willing to follow through on their promises to reduce spending, and had Bush Sr. not renegged on his no new taxes pledge. Under Reagan, the lowest 20% of income earners had an increase of 12% in their earning power, having lost 17% of it under Carter.

  • Please please please run for President!!!

  • LOL...poor ignorant liberals. This administration has brought our country to its knees and they are STILL talking about Reagan and Bush. Obama and his cronies are a bunch of clowns. At this stage of the game anyone that still believes obama is good for America is either a complete idiot, or on that free gov cheese.

  • America is the greatest! Reagan was the past, Rubio is the future.

  • Comment removed

  • @jpeters3270 agree on the first part of your post. thank god reagan is in the past and hopefully rubio will have no political future.

  • Rubio is not eligible just like Obama. He should be telling the truth about this and driving home the issue....A Muslim from Guana just applied with the election board to run for President. They said he could but won't get federal matching funds. ..HUH??? Our founders put in the Constitution natural born clause for highest office to prevent a usurper and a foreign backed and placed President with an anti US agenda (read Obama's book--he hates whites and America. He hung with radicals.

  • @LoriPatriot1  can't believe there are still birther lunatics out there. lol lol lol

  • He said, "we are not going to punish others for mistakes of the parents" more or less. The guy believes in Amnesty. He is not eligible to be President. He was born here but his parents were not citizens until years later. The only Presidents that have not met this criteria of the VP and President NATURAL BORN (not native born) meaning born in the US to US citizens is President Chester Arthur and the un-President Obama. Arthur's ineligibility came to light after he left. Obama's before.

  • @LoriPatriot1 seems reagan did the same with amnesty for 3 million. bush lite tried to pass legislation in 2007 to allow amnesty. the number of arrests also went down under bush lite until 2007 when his administration thought they were on the wrong side of the issue. hmmm

  • Refugee Cubans got automatic discount housing, free food, and guaranteed job connections they received from the Democratic JFK government. I remember the cash checks, peanut butter cans and spam food cans that American born African -Americans in Miami could only hope for.

  • @Solperal Your source?

  • Children all over the country are born without the social benefits his parents got when they arrived from Cuba. This douche bag now wants to remove these AFTER he got his.

    As a Cuban American I find this hypocrite reprehensible.

  • @Solperal Just what benefits do you speak of? Please elaborate and also no guessing just the facts please.

  • Comment removed

  • @Solperal What benefits exiled Cubans get?

  • id love to see 8 years perry then 8 years rubio. they both seem to have their heads on straight and dont have ideas that make you wonder whats going on in their. spending to get out of debt is a good example.

  • Rubio could easily be elected President, but there are questions of eligibility. When Marco Rubio was born in Florida, his parents were not yet American citizens.

    Rubio is speaking words we have long needed to hear.

    The programs that came out of the Great Society in the mid 60's have harmed and weakened all of us. We cannot, nor should we, turn away and say it's just the inner city, urban areas. It's is all of us. What harm an inner city baby harms us all.

  • @miselaineous13 He is eligible as the law stands now and in the past. There are some who want to change this. But now NO PROBLEM. A Rick Perry Mark Rubio Ticket sounds good to me

  • @miselaineous13 did you not see rub's video praising SS, Medicare, Medicaid for helping with medical bills when his father was sick and then in hospice. or the SS that helps take care of his mother? this is the same guy who now wants to dismantle the very safety net that saved his parents from financial ruin? pay back the money first rubio and then I'll believe you. HYPOCRITE rubio, thinks you all are stupid.

  • Stunning. He is who we've been looking for and need as a Nation.

  • rub and bachmann, perry, cain ,palin and the tea guzzlers aren't the scary ones in the room. it's the uneducated voter who would promote their ideology and tear down America in the process. their lack of intelligence is the hindrance to this nation. the voters are the problem!

  • @Mutedvox You're right, it's the voters that put us in the mess we're in now when they voted for HOPE and CHANGE that Obama promised. What we got is a disaster. Senator Rubio brings back the ideals that this country was built on. Let's change the rush to socialism and get back to economic freedom and small government.

  • @RTreasures4U bush lite voters brought us here. you just refuse to acknowledge that. as for rub, there is a video of him praising Medicare and Medicaid and SS and the role it played in paying for his dads hospice care and now SS for his mom. how disingenuous does this guy have to be for you to wake up. he can rid himself of the demon by paying back the money his dad and mom got and relinquish his FEHB, SS and other benefits he gets courtesy of Uncle Sam and us and end his hypocrisy.

  • This little twerp is an cowardly asshole.

  • Another spineless corporate GOP hack.

  • Most hard working workers pay a FICA 15% flat tax all their life that goes into the general fund and expect a meager retirement when too old to work!

    Now the Koch Brothers Tea Party want to steal this from the old and give a extra 10% income tax break to the top tax bracket!

    The only way to fix Social Security is for "Everyone to pay FICA Tax on all incomes"

  • Ok Rubio. We want you to cut a check to the Federal Treasury for the full amount that your parents collected in Social Security, Medicare and/or Medicaid benefits. Do that, then you can talk about how people who rely on these services (almost all of whom paid into the system for years) weaken America.

  • @psatm you partisan hack, spinning Rubio's words until they sound absurd. What's absurd is that we have allowed SS and other entitlement's insolvency to trap our nation under a mountain of debt. That is how entitlements "weaken our people".

  • @steveharrell2011 Partisan hack? What are you, middle-of-the-road and open-minded? Sure. Why don't you use a canned phrase next time.

    I never quoted Rubio, so how could I have spun his words? The only person spinning words here is you.

    Tell you what, if you really feel that way about entitlements, post a video here of you burning your SS card and renouncing all entitlements. We all know you won't, because the same people crying about entitlements are the ones with their hands out.

  • @psatm You're actually right, I will still need them for when the Tea Party successfully reforms Medicare and SS for solvency. We can't promise people younger than 55 the world anymore, we need to adopt measures like the Ryan plan so it can still be around for my generation.

  • @steveharrell2011 What's your generation? You don't qualify your statement. The Tea Party will not gut Medicare or SS - the vast majority of Americans want these programs (last poll was over 80%). Believe it or not, there are some things the government provides that people want.

    According to Rubio, SS makes people lazy and weakens us. You support him but also like the Ryan plan to "save" SS. Which is it - do you support Rubio or Ryan?

  • @psatm @psatm No, according to YOU, Rubio said "SS made us lazy". He clearly never said that in this speech. Rubio supports the Ryan plan, & Ryan agrees with Rubio. They are both out to save the programs, but also acknowledge the program's fiscal problems that led us to this point. You act as though these decades-old programs do not have kinks & behave wonderfully. I'm in my 20s, so I don't care for paying into a SS I'll never see.

  • @steveharrell2011 He said we don't have to take care of ourselves and our families or save for retirement because now we rely on the government to do this for us. Complete crap. He forgets the little fact that we WORK AND PAY INTO SOCIAL SECURITY - then we hope to have it available for us when we retire. He goes on to say that SS weakens us. Another lie, since before we had SS, one in four seniors lived in poverty, today it's 14%. He is getting slammed over this by his own constituents.

  • @steveharrell2011 Well first, you're grossly misinformed. SS is solvent and will be for several decades AND would be just fine if BOTH parties had left the SS money alone. SS didn't have a funding problem, it had political parties that spent money they should never have touched. THAT was the plan all along. The GOP has since the beginning wanted SS to fail. Or please explain why we started 2 wars AND cut taxes? It looks like the GOP is getting what they wanted, and end to SS.

  • @steveharrell2011 Yeah, cause trillions for un-needed wars made us money, huh? You haven't mentioned any war spending, why is that? You aren't one of those dipshits that thinks war spending doesn't count, are you?

  • Wow~ What a shift from his praise of medicare for his father who died in a hospice and mother who relies on medicare. These items have ruined America Mr. Rubio? Really? Except when you benefit from in. PHONY

  • @Jacoisms hypocrisy is a sad thing when it is revealed. I would think that Marco will be running home to take his mother off the  medicare roll?

  • @Mutedvox Did you listen to this speech. Evidently not.

  • Comment removed

  • @Jacoisms He is saying it works great for people on it today, but it does this at the expense of bankrupting our country in the very near future. Moreover, our kids will have nothing like these programs, but they will still be paying for them while they live in a Country you we won't recognize. IDIOT, wake up and check your F'ing math!.

  • test

  • A 23 minute speech and he had no teleprompters or notes. He WILL be POTUS one day soon. He will definitively be the VP for whoever the Republican nominee is in 2012.

  • @TimH1955 Actually, Marco Rubio gives long impressive speeches ALL the time. This was only one of many.

  • @steveharrell2011 I'm from Florida and well aware of that.

  • What's with all the trolls? Hey guys-- if you don't want to listen to this speech with an open mind, please don't scramble around hissing like a bunch of badgers, just let it go and vent about conservatives to other liberals. Leave this guy out of it. His speeches are amazing, and reflect the American Dream.

  • @LostWorldRaptor Unfortunately this is the internet. Chances are that the people behind those keyboards are children who have no clue what they're talking about. And by children, I mean democrats :P

  • @Tacoz4Evry1 Hey I figure if Rush, Glenn and Sean can sit around and make fun, why can't I?

    One huge difference, I CAN BACK UP EVERYTHING I SAY, and I've never used Cocaine, Oxycodone, or hung out with a Racist.

  • @Rushtrdamus what are you talking about?

  • @Rushtrdamus oh I see, we have a troll on our hands. then my comment about a child keyboard commando is correct...

  • @Tacoz4Evry1

    Intelligent post troll

  • @Jacoisms ?

  • @LostWorldRaptor Wow, 17 AND a Glenn Beck fan. Were you raised by retards or are you southern?

    BTW, I love how you want the rest of us to have open minds while admitting to liking someone that doesn't have one. Awesome.

  • @LostWorldRaptor I'm sorry-- When did I insult you? When did I make commentary about YOUR family? You can have your opinions just dont attack others for theirs. Come on, man...

  • The Jews had Moses- America has Marco Rubio to light the way out of this tunnel of love created by liberal forces and ignorant Americans who expected Obama to put gas in their car!

  • @TheMdpowell lol lol lol lol lol lol 

  • After viewing this... I have a new American Hero.

    Wow... he's so polished, informed and so ready for the presidency. I wish he'd run... He'd win easily.

  • @creativebuzz  Great joke, please keep posting them. We all need some comic relief, thanks.

  • @creativebuzz Look at dozens of his other speeches too!! You will see the future POTUS for yourself.

  • Look Barrack... no teleprompters.

  • @creativebuzz Look George, I can utter an entire sentence without using "uh".

  • Rubio embodies what many immigrants look for when coming to this great Country.

    An opportunity to rise to success and prosperity as a consequence of self reliance and hard work!!!

  • @srhbl figures I saw your website. Who do you shill for?

    Hey, it really DOES work...damn, I should retort with this stuff all the time so this way I never have to refute anything directly again!

  • Only Useful Idiots dislike this Great Speech...We have a Young , Dynamic Conservative Leader who's on the verge of becoming our First Latin Prez...As Mr. T would say...Pity the Fool that get's in Marco's way...!

  • AWESOME! 

  • Just learning the teleprompter I think.

  • When it comes to the combination of institutional lobbying, 527 group donations and PAC expenditures, Koch Industries far out-spends Soros’ hedge fund and think tank, $57.4 million to $12.8 million

  • Shut up little man!

  • If Marco Rubio had been a Democrat, detractors would be saying, "Understand Rubio isn't working for the middle class but for George Soros."

  • @mummyduster That's because Democrats do swear allegiance to Soros. Where are the Democrats saying anything Rubio is saying??

  • @steveharrell2011 and you guys are owned by richard melon scaife....and the koch brothers.

  • @Mutedvox No one owns me but myself. Who owns you then?

  • Sen. Rubio has it figured out-

    "Someone over there has it figured out. We have a lot of work to do. "The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency. It will be far easier to limit and undo the follies of an Obama presidency than to restore the necessary common sense and good judgment to a depraved electorate willing to have such a man for their president."

    Czech Republic Newspaper Prager Zeitung apr 2010

  • Marco Rubio has it exactly right. His interpretation of the proper role of government is exactly that of our founders and of Ronald Reagan. It is too bad that many in my country do not share that vision, for if they did, they would be far more prosperous and happy.

  • @KevinKinion hahahaha No fucking way. Our founders would view Reagn as a traitor to the constitution. Unless of coure you think Reagan kept the U.S. out of other sovereign nations' business. Reagn can be blamed for the terrorism we face today.

  • “I hope we shall crush in its birth the aristocracy of our moneyed corporations, which dare already to challenge our government to a trial of strength and bid defiance to the laws of our country."

  • @DillonDee1 Found it. citizensforethics(.)org "Marco Rubio" Seems you were right Dillon, Mr. Rubio and corruption go hand in hand. Happy hunting (reading), I'm gonna have to email this to my mom, lol.

    BTW discovered another political tool. We should share. I've only been at it for about 3 years but learning.

    "Mr. Rubio and his staff charged many seemingly personal expenses on the cards including car repairs, and grocery purchases" hmm?

  • FLORIDA STATE UNIVERSITY is & has been funded for many yrs by the citicens of Fla

    But even though it is a state institution, the Koch Brothers own so many political figures in the state they now pick the economic professors there & you can bet they must teach --

    Social Security & Medicare are bad.

    Tax cuts for the super-wealthy are great

    And teachers, firemen & policmen are paid too much.

  • @DillonDee1 - Why should anyone care about the points you're trying to make for longer than it takes to sneer at them? There's nothing of worthwhile substance. All it appears to be is - since one can't handle the message at all - a rather sophomoric attempt to taint the messenger. Sad. But thank you for bringing the Elliott Management entity to our attention; with the names mentioned in connection, it is certainly worthwhile to look into!

  • @DickieDoo1 -all of your "little numbers" do not add up to $800,000.

  • @wolfgangfaust -- what I posted is but a small fraction.

    The Kochs have given over $100 million in political contributions & have pledged to give $88 milion more to the 2012 elections.

    OK, who has the most power in our govt today?

    I hope you didnt say Barack because his power pales in comparison w/ the Koch's

  • @DillonDee1 you seem to forget george soros....the billionaire who brought other countries to their knees...a really good pal of "the ONE" ...id say the koch's power pales in comparison to Soros!

  • @LiddiML --

    Soros never had secret meetings were members of Congress were wined & dined in the most luxurious settings & instructed on how they were to vote on different bills.

    And I can understand how Rubio got swept under Koch control & became 1 of their puppets..

  • As the son of Cuba exiles, really proud of Senator Rubio!

  • Bye bye Barrack!

  • Go Rubio!!! The dems worst nightmare. An hispanic Ronald Reagan.
