If it quacks like a duck and looks like a duck, it is still a duck, Rubio

Yeah sure, Rube. I suppose that was why Schumer was backing you 100%

If Rubio can walk back the issue of the invasion of the US he’s not out of it. People like Rubio. Some people who don’t like Rubio are more likely to accept him if he’s the target of Bush Dynasty thugs.

Marco could have just refused to help on a amnesty bill.

Rubio is a guy who wasn’t very wealthy before politics. He wanted the good life and that has made him totally for sale to the highest bidders.

He sweats becauae he lies so much.

Just watch the Becky Quick segment of the last debate in which she totally exposed Rubio’s financial incompetence, remembering that each of his denials is a proven lie. This is why the GOPe led an attack on CNBC for its “unfair, biased” moderators, who in fact did a fantastic job of exposing the lies of Rubio, Fiorino and Carson (on Mannatech).

DC insiders think a bad bill is better than no bill at all.

The people who live in the real world and make the country work think a bad bill is a bad bill and should be left alone to die.

I saw him on shows pushing this BS back in 2013 after contributing a little coin to his campaign. He was all like “oh we have a broken system, and we need to fix it.” And he was asked, “Isn’t this amnesty?” and he was like “oh we have a broken system, and we need to fix it.” And then someone asked, “How will this stop the flow of illegals?” and he was all like “oh we have a broken system, and we need to fix it.”

blah blah blah.. It’s what turned me against him.

Jeb and Marco are one in the same.

Jeb gushes over Marco Rubio.

Jeb Bush Wants Marco Rubio For Vice President

Bush told The Associated Press he has been a huge fan of the Florida senator for years

Jul 25, 2012

Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush thinks Senator Marco Rubio is ready to be vice president and he shared those thoughts with presumptive Republican nominee Mitt Romney, he said Wednesday.

Bush said he has been a huge fan of Rubio’s for years and hopes that Romney chooses him. He said he made his pitch to Romney in a recent conversation, but the former Massachusetts governor didn’t reveal which direction he was leaning. Bush said the choice is a personal one and respects Romney for keeping his thoughts close to his vest.

I said at the time that the immigration bill would make or break Rubio. If he was able to craft a politically smart solution that leaned right but gave the left some of the less innocuous parts of their goals, he would come out a huge winner. Instead he signed on to a very left leaning, super complex ‘comprehensive’ disaster, and then looked like a fool trying to sell it to the right. He really, really messed up. I am not as big an hater of Rubio as many here, but he’s working with 2.5 strikes against him from my perspective.

He simply is not truthful in saying he worked for a bill leaning right because nothing about that bill showed anything but straight down the line amnesty. Doing amnesty but adding a bunch of caveats is not a realistic compromise. Offering a full border plan, employment screening, Visa reform, enforcement reform and maybe a carrot to allow kids growing up here the ability to qualify for citizenship would have been a worthy compromise bill. This was total garbage.

Rubio is a known liar. Do not believe a single word he says.

October 24, 2010 while campaigning for the Senate: "Earned path to citizenship is basically code for amnesty. It's what they call it. And the reality of it is this. This has to do with the bottom line that America cannot be the only country in the world that does not enforce its immigration laws. It is unfair to the people that have legally entered this country to create an alternative pathway for individuals who entered illegally and knowingly did so. And all I'm saying is that if you do that...you will never have a legal immigration system that works. No one is going to follow the law if there is an easier way to do it.

June 27, 2013 as an elected Senator: "Those who once had no hope will give their kids the chance at a life they always wanted for themselves. Here in America, generations of unfulfilled dreams will finally come to pass. And that is why I support this reform (Amnesty)--not just because I believe in immigrants but because I believe in America even more."

You aimed, Marco, and thank God, you missed. You start with a “conservative” amnesty plan, and by the time the GOPe/Chamber of Commerce and Democrat Socialists coalition work it over, we’ll have open borders and a flood of “immigrants” like Europe is seeing now. NO AMNESTY! NO RUBIO!

Anything that allows those who crossed the border illegally to benefit from that illegal act is amnesty.

Rubio is a liar. He tried to

Comprehensively Screw Americans Out Of Their Country

Anyone who votes for Rubio is voting to abandon the rule of law and surrender the country to illegal aliens and their employers.

We are going to see the word conservative next to Rubio in every media story from now on....he is the new golden boy for the rinos.

This is going to get old very quickly.

We don’t need another immigration bill, Howdy Rubio.

We need to strictly and adamantly enforce the laws already in place. Putz.....

As we all know, or should know, Rubio was working with a RAT senate and McCain/Graham and even Burr. Rubio walked away ...made public comments on the plan, not a bill at that time. He got attacked by the left and his friends on the right didnt forgive him for going along in the first place. Rubio lost a ton of supporters.

And now Schumer is playing along that Rubio is their guy.....but most see through this crap. The RATS fear Rubio more than most of the other candidates..make no mistake about it.

Not sure where this election will lead. Time will tell. If he is the nom. I’ll vote for him..as well as Cruz Trump Carson

I detect the faint whiff of bovine excrement in that “explanation”.

Sure, Marco, sure you did.

LOL

But no matter what new concept or term you guys come up with to redefine it, a-m-n-e-s-t-y is still amnesty.

You still have the gang of 8 stench all over your shoes.
