Marco Rubio tweets like he's the anti-Amato on health care
By John Amato Wednesday Jul 29, 2009 5:00pmMarco Rubio, the ultra Limbaugh conservative who's running for the Senate against the very popular Charlie Crist doesn't like my idea of postponing the August recess if a health-care bill is stalled. He tweeted that he hopes for just the opposite.
marcorubio: Has a congressional recess ever been more needed than now? Every day hoping time runs out on bad policy in D.C.
Thanks for the endorsement Marco. The country needs help and you want Congress to play in a sandbox for August. He's a Club for Growth republican who is having problems raising money. Howie Klein called him the anti-Amato in an email to me and he has more info on Marco "Ricky" Rubio.

who was invovled in a Club For Gross Republican double murder/suicide in Orlando a couple of years ago??
What seems to be coming out of congress for health care reform falls quite short of what I had been hoping for. I have a fear that it's going to be a total catastrophe. I want to see a nationalized health care system. What it looks like we'll get is mandatory insurance, with no idea of what the coverage will be. Sure, insurance companies can create cheaper policies that leave everyone with huge medical bills to pay. But that won't solve a thing. And we'll be forced to buy them.
Mandated insurance coverage is so far from the answer that it should not even be in the same universe. Yet, that is what it appears we will see. I, for one, am not happy with the results and can't support them, as of right now. Let's hope that what actually comes out is a lot better.
...raising money."
How is that possible? I would assume every RedState Winger would be willing to sell his or her worldly possessions and donate the proceeds to Rubio so he can defeat the hated Crist.
could care less what happens to us or anyone not in their fucking tax bracket.
They claim "free market...free market...free market", but what they really want is "socialism" for themselves and the "free market" for everyone else.
Bastards.
It's the Club for Corporate Fascism. Another rightwing Orwellean bullshiit term, created to fool the dupes into voting for their own economic suicide.
The sad part is, 45% of the people in this country are so friggin' stupid, they still haven't figured it out. Nor will they ever.
You can fool some of the people some of the time, and 45% of the American population 100% of the time. So very sad indeed.
You can take him, John! Plus, I hear he sucks at the sax! ;-)
Well, sounds to me like he's relying too much on other people to fund his campaign. Don't these libertarian types believe in self-sufficiency? Tell him to go print some money if wants it, and stop asking for handouts from others.
Cuban Castro-ation cabal cry about the "injustices" of the Communist country 100 miles to our south, I suspect that many Cubans would probably argue that their healthcare system is probably better than the one we don't have...
and my world. These people drive me insane here and there are so many of them. The representative to the state house from my district is a young guy (late 20's) who is a flaming right-wing zealot. My HoR is Ginnie Browne-Waite!!! Please feel my pain. Rubio is looking to the future. He realizes he has no shot against Crist. My main hope is that Pres O drops the embargo and they flood this place with Cuban cigars. That will really drive these people crazy.
Congress needs to get out of Washington and get home to the constituents. There are a lot of angry people out here in the ROW who would LOVE to got to some town hall meetings and pounce on these lame-ass congress critters and tell them how much we need the public option, or better yet, single payer.
We need to get them away from the lobbyists and let them hear actual health horror stories, let them hear from the 16000 who are losing their health insurance every day.
