Certainly @marcorubio could have used a picture of an actual military family and not a stock photo of a guy in a fake uniform with a beard and the American flag disrespectfully crumpled up on a fence.

Update: @marcorubio has deleted the post from his Facebook page.

A reason why or apology to military children and families has not been issued at this time.

Replying to @travisakers @otcmont and @marcorubio
Funny how in a picture produced by a Ukrainian studio this "American" military man is wearing a Ukrainian uniform.

@CapalTunnel
Not to worry though, his military wife also has a Ukrainian uniform.

3. They can't win for losing. Because they're lazy, incompetent LOSERS.

This gives a great idea how little they think of their supporters and those they claim to support. They can’t imagine it actually matters to people, all that stuff they claim to hold so dear.

God I’m tired of posers and grifters.

9. Oversight, in the minds of Republicans everywhere, is some vague leftist term.

They have no idea what it is. The hacks come into government like corporate raiders, sucking out all the assets, killing the host. It is with this motivation that oversight isn't a factor. Just get anyone to do the work. Find someone.
