On Wednesday's NBC Nightly News, anchor Brian Williams proclaimed that Florida Senator Marco Rubio taking a sip of water during his response to the State of the Union was "the televised moment from last night that just might live on forever." [Listen to the audio or watch the video after the jump]
Williams expounded: "Well, it's one of the cruelest aspects of politics in the television age. No matter how well-crafted the content, no matter how thoughtful a person you are, it's the television moments, the superficial, purely visual moments that are often remembered forever instead. And that will certainly be the case with Florida Senator Marco Rubio's GOP response last night."
I suppose they consider themselves lucky that our Glorious Emperor was not photographed EATING DOG MEAT/s
Obama ate dog. Rubio drank water. Who is the REAL American???;)
Thanks for posting that video of Hillary. If you had not posted it, I would never know about it. MSM would not touch it.
Yo Brian, We have plenty of footage of yall too.
We have footage of you yall calculating and conniving, and footage of you just being bone stupid.
Now is the time to highlight the gist of what Rubio said while mocking Williams and the like.
“Williams expounded ... it’s the television moments, the superficial, purely visual moments that are often remembered forever instead.”
It won’t be forgotten as long as we have cast-iron, ideologically hide-bound, blow-dried/hair-sprayed, cookie-cut, lefty Nimrods like Williams and the rest of his herd: the MSM, now known as the agitprop organ of the Democratic party, “expounding” on the earth-shaking political significance of (drumroll, please):
A Republican taking a drink of water during a long speech.
This garbage is ridiculous.
it’s official.
the msm is officially a whiny little bitch.
Like “I can see Russia from my house” Brian?
Why didn’t Williams spend this much time covering Benghazi?
in fact the msm is doing van jones’ work for him. tear rubio down because he’s a real threat, at least that’s how the libtard marxists see him.
The Rubio water thing will live on! (until they think up something else tomorrow)
That was fast. Marco Rubio took heat for his “career ender” of drinking water at his State of the Union response, but now has fired up some Rubio water bottles for his Reclaim America Pac.
The rapid mouth-breathers in the left-wing media can take a cool drink of water now. The Rubio bottles are available at Reclaim America Pac. This seems like a great response to a laughable controversy.
He won’t care. As he doesn’t care that his daughter gets naked for all to see. It’s a lost cause.
Pravda now has more legitimacy than the US msm.
Are you gonna send Williams your YouTube vid of Hitlery just as a reminder that it’s out there?
Meanwhile Barak Obama could pick and eat a booger at one of his daily campaign speeches and the media would fawn over the genius of it all and that they bet it tasted just right...he just needed a little nutrition...working so hard and all transforming America....into a socialist Utopia
Oh come on, just because the guy has an (R) behind his name doesn’t mean it wasn’t funny and awkward, and if it was Obummer FR would explode with merciless mocking.
Not that it matters because Rubio handled it expertly the next day.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha
Oh man, sorry. I laughed for like ten minutes at that.
It’s already working. Rubio is now the main joke on late night talk shows. He is effectively being turned into a buffoon. That sip of water may very well turn out to be the end of his career.
