On Friday, President Obama took time out from his trip to Africa to call members of Senate’s so-called “Gang of Eight,” including Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), to congratulate them on the immigration reform bill that passed the Senate on Thursday in a 68-32 vote.

Obama was unable to actually reach Rubio. Obama also called Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH) to push him to take up the Senate’s immigration reform package.

Calls Rubio, pushes John Boehner to pass immigration as well. Obama knows how to get Congress to capitulate time and time again.

He may as well hugged him and kissed him full on the lips...Corleone style. Rubio is toast.

Rubio does have a fork in him now. He’s done.

He’s got as much of a chance of getting a vote from he as john McCain does of getting another one from me.

I hope you’re happy Rubio. You better hope for a couple of lefty votes to replace mine and my wife’s if you ever hope to be President because immigration is one of my 2 issues and I’ll NEVER vote for ANYbody who votes for immigration liberalization (immigration reform is a lie).

Obama to Rubio; “You did good boy, how about you and I go one down to the bath club and get a rub down. You can be Monica, I’ll be Bill.”

To be embarrassed one msut have both class and a moral compass, Rubio has neither, so he cannot be embarrassed.

Why would Rubio think he’s toast?

McCain’s been getting away with this for years.

I stand corrected. Just the same, I think Rubio will find this situation politically embarrassing.

Apparently Obama didn’t read the news...Boehner threw it in the basket and said the House is writing their own.
