Sen. Rubio On Donald Trump’s Birtherism: ‘Why Are We Talking About This?’

Were his parents US citizens when he was born?

[o2bfree]

I don’t think they were.

[Brilliant]

We’re talking about it because the media thinks it’s good for the Democrats. Simple as that.

Not sure that they are right, though. A large part of the public agrees with Trump.

[screaminsunshine]

Parents from Cuba. I voted for him but am starting to wonder. I think the Certs are fair game.

[rockinqsranch]

Seems like a hit piece on Rubio to me. Other Opinions?

[2ndDivisionVet]

That’s a problem Gov. Bobby Jindal might have, too.

[max americana]

See? Why no one would take my bet months ago that this Cuban would start acting like a RINO within 6 months..my next wager is on that hot MILF from North Dakota.

Tea party freshmen start gaining RINO brain cells once they step into DC. It was inevitable.

Why Are We Talking About This?

The question should be why aren't we talking about this enough and why didn't we talk about this in 2008.

I have to say this is a strike against Rubio. But, on the other hand, pretty much everyone else has this strike against them too.

[biggredd1]

It is FACT that Jindal’s parents were not citizens at time of bobby jindal birth. Rubio is still hiding the info on his exile parents. It is believed that Rubio’s parents were not citizens at time of Rubio birth.

[American Constitutionalist]

Hey Marco Rubio ? protest much ? what do you have to hide that Obama has to hide ?

[WPaCon]

Then there’s the fact that Sen. Rubio may have enough in common with the President that, should he ultimately run for higher office, supporting foreign birth fears could come back to haunt him. Rubio has flatly denied rumors of being anywhere near the GOP presidential ticket in 2012, though at this stage of the horserace it is much more difficult to find someone admitting they are thinking about running than denying it. Perhaps 2012 may be too early for the first-term Senator, but if presidential ambitions are in Sen. Rubio’s future, it wouldn’t be unfathomable that an equally incomprehensible movement speculating about Rubio’s birthplace would form, too. If he runs in 2012, he will have the same amount of experience in the Senate as President Obama had when he won the presidency, and he would likely face a similar uphill battle with a certain sector of the population ethnically, too. After all, Rubio is the son of exiles and was born in Miami, Florida– tropical enough to arouse the brand of ill-placed, time-wasting paranoia Trump has made the centerpiece of his “presidential (?) campaign.”

This paragraph is a load of crap.

[kactus]

Why are we talking about this?

The Constitution...Remember that document?

[Minus_The_Bear]

Rubio needs to shut up.

He authored a bill to support Obama's war in Libya... now this.

[Terry Mross]

I got to give it to Palin. Tonight she didn’t completely agree with Trump but she didn’t slam him either. She basically danced around it by saying there are lots of people who are interested in the birth certificate. I’m guessing she waited until she read all the posts on here.

[screaminsunshine]

Not Good. And Hannity said he will be President someday.

[Christian Engineer Mass]

“What does that have to do with...”

The president’s propensity for FRAUD and CORRUPTION and LYING TO THE PEOPLE has a lot to do with everything.

[bergmeid]

Don’t frigging worry your pretty little head about it, Rubio. We’ll take care of it.

[BobP]

Everything is on the table here. There is nothing worse for America than this embittered, racist cipher returning to office for four more years.

The Pharaoh of Lies

Ready, Fire, Aim, Barry: ''Let me be clear, as clear as mud; there are no reports of Trump being on to me for being a fraud and a cipher. I've never hoodwinked anyone. Trump should stop and think about how this is making him look. Please go back to your hotels and casinos and just relax a little. I'll tell you when the jig is up.''

Attack his record, his lying, his COLB, his czars, his union kickbacks, his ownership of GM and his hellcare plan. And that's just a start.

How about some of this:

A 'stimulus' that only stimulated the National Debt Clock.
8.8% unemployment.
$3 trillion in new debt in just two years.
The vast increase in the size of government and its share of GDP. More Americans work for the government than work in construction, farming, fishing, forestry, manufacturing, mining and utilities combined. We have moved decisively from a nation of makers to a nation of takers.
Eight years of projected $1 trillion annual budget deficits.
New capital gains taxes.
New inheritance taxes.
The use of extra-cabinet czars to avoid confirmation and audit.
ACORN
The shutdown of gulf drilling.
The failure to encourage coal and oil new production.
The Black Panther voting intimidation mess.
A president who referred to Americans who disagree with him as 'enemies'.
Obama's bowing abroad and his apologies tour.
The outreach to enemies, and the snubbing of allies.
The unnecessary humiliation of Great Britain and Israel.
The unnecessary announcement of Afghan troop withdrawal deadlines.
The administration's 'Overseas contingency operations,' 'man-made disasters' and 'kinetic military action.'
Democrat controlled states violating the MOVE Act. (Military and Overseas Voter Empowerment Act)
The Ground Zero mosque mess.
The beer summit mess.
NASA's new main mission of Muslim outreach.
Stopping the border fence.
Suing Arizona and demonizing the state.
The slurs against limb-lopping doctors.
Unhinged appointees like Van Jones and Anita Dunn.
Cash for clunkers.
And monetizing the debt.

Time to step up Republicans and hammer this jackwagon president and his administration.

Countdown until Obama leaves Office: 650 days as of April 10, 2011.

[fish hawk]

Why does Rubio give a rats ass what Trump is saying or doing. Things like this just makes Rubio look bad in my books.

[FlyingEagle]

Added 3 trillion in debt by an illegal alien resident in chief. That is a material crime.
