MFM Question Whether 1-Term Senator Has Enough Experience to be President

April 14, 2015 by V the K

I am not making this up.

As Rubio left Miami’s Freedom Tower earlier in the day after rehearsing his speech, O’Donnell could be heard shouting: “Senator, you’re the youngest candidate. Are you prepared to be president, sir?”

Also, CBS News has picked a far-left whackjob to host Face The Nation, because that formula has worked so well at MSDNC.

And Uber-Leftist Jonathan Chait says that people who want the Government to be fiscally responsible and less intrusive are “barking mad.”

    While I don’t support Sen. Rubio, if he serves in the Senate ’til the 2016 Gen. Elections he will have almost-twice the Senatorial experience of the WON. …Just saying.

    I was very impressed with Rubio’s announcement speech both in scope and tone. At this point, I am not aware of any agenda he has cast in stone so I don’t know where we might align, disagree or compromise. But I was very heartened by his optimism and his theme:

    “Before us now is the opportunity to author the greatest chapter yet in the amazing story of America. But we can’t do that by going back to the leaders and ideas of the past. We must change the decisions we are making by changing the people who are making them.”

    Sure it is campaign rhetoric and even boilerplate, but it marginalizes the decrepitude of Ancients like Hillary, Pelosie, Reid, Schumer, and even McConnell and Boehner.

    The millennials don’t remember anything of the Clintoon years and only know Hillary as a “powerful” and “experienced” woman. They are far more apt to look at Rubio as a bridge between them and the future. Our political gurus are wizened parasites selling the same old snake-oil in a new bottle while skimming off the top of the campaign funds.

    It is about time that a young Republican learned from the 1992 Clinton and 2008 Obama campaigns about how the election game is played in the present.

    I am not sold on Rubio in any way, He has to prove his abilities and lay out his agenda. I have plenty of open mind left for Walker, Cruz, Paul and others.

    Rubio is a neo-con puppet. HELL NO will I vote for him.

    I, too, have been skeptical, but there is a big difference between Obama and Rubio. Obama sat in the Illinois State senate for twelve years and four in the U.S. Senate doing and being nothing more than pretty face. Marco, on the other hand, served in the state assembly, and became the Speaker before challenging Charlie Crist for the U.S. Senate seat. Even Ted Cruz stacks up better than Obama in the same period of time.
    As for Rubio’s youthful appearance, he is the same age as JFK was when he launched his presidential campaign. JFK served one term in Congress and two in the Senate. On legislative experience they are about on par.

    My first hope is that Donald Trump will become a candidate. The nation is so screwed up that it will take a non-politician pull us out of the mire. This was the intention of the Founding Fathers, to have a citizen government; not to create a political class.

    The way to humiliate imbeciles like Chait is fourfold:

    – Point out that their economic theory involves taking money from the people who earn it to reward people who don’t

    – When they scream that that’s not true, ask them point-blank why they scream that welfare-to-work is racist and demand that people be given checks without any proof of effort

    – When they melt down over that, propose a 100% tax be assessed on all income earned over minimum wage for registered Democrats to be redistributed to the non-working poor.

    When they flip out over THAT, ask them why they think they deserve to be paid more than a person earning minimum wage and point out that their Obama Party says anyone earning over minimum wage is a thief.

    What does the acronym MFM stand for?

    Imagine the Mainstream Media (MSM) described by Samuel L. Jackson.

    According to msm a young first time senator as a republican is bad,but the same as dem is yippee. And could they possibly do anymore with color? A bi racial that had a privileged life. A life us peons never had or will have, but but….COLOR. What happened to post racial? Most of us live there, the elites and radicals don’t. What to meet a true rascist, shake hands with a liberal.

    “Sir, I will answer your question, if you will answer one of mine first. Did you ask this question 8 years ago of Barak Obama? If you did, please tell me when. If not, why not?”

    @Paul, coud you define for me exactly what a neo-con is?

    I’ve heard that term tossed around so often, usually by those on the far left, but they obviously mean it to simply be a pejorative, without any real idea what it means.

    I know that I can define exactly what I mean when I use the word Socialist and Communist. I just am honestly curious what, exactly, a neo-con is.

    Rubio is too far right and comes across as super uptight.

    Walker is the best candidate IMO.

    @ Craig Smith: A “neo-con” essentially refers to a Right-Statist, somebody who favors proactive and large government both home and abroad. Peter King, who is a vocal supporter of NSA surveillance and one of the biggest hawks in Congress, is a pretty good illustration of the term.

    Another way I’ve heard it put is “A liberal who got his nose broken on the playground.”

    Trump would be the only one against open borders, Walker is able to fight back. I think trump would get IRS payback investigating a leftist org for every tea party under bath house Barry.

    Neo-con in practice usually means “republican who doesn’t 100% agree with all of my positions and is therefor automatically worse than the democrat who agrees with none of them, so that I can rant and feel morally superior for being “pure” in my losing.
