You and I are in total agreement.

He is trying to TELL Tillerson what he is supposed to think. He is trying to MAKE Tillerson an enemy!

What’s up with Rubio’s questioning? Does he want to be a democrat or secretary or state...or both?

He is probably being directed by McCain. If this appointment fails it will be Rubio’s fault.

“Little Marco” is living up to the name DJT gave him. He’s little in every way — a small man.

The Cardin family changed their name from 'Kardonsky', originally Soviet Jewish Bolsheviks.

Rubio is using Tillerson to get back at Trump for calling him “Little Marco.”

Now trying to get Tillerson to say Putin is a “war criminal.” Tillerson is non-commital, saying he would like to review the entire file. Rubio is incensed.

No doubt Rubio is getting ready to deep-six Tillerson’s nomination when the vote comes.

I don’t know what his problem is. With “friends” like this, who needs enemies?

Something that we learned from a WikiLeaks dump (not the first one) mentioned that there were/are three GOPs on Hillary’s payroll. Maybe we’re finding out who they might be.

I think he is trying to show us how smart - superior - capable he is. But the only thing he is doing is making himself look like a self aggrandizing ASS!!!

“Rubio is being an ass.”

Tillerson is doing a great job.
