They just had a Marco Rubio ad on talking about what a
big man
he'd be when it came to our foreign policy and the same sort of jingoistic bullshit about spreading "freedom and democracy" that got us into the Iraq debacle.
My response? Shut the fuck up Marco.
I am so goddamn sick and tired of all these right wing dumbasses whose idea of foreign policy is to run around showing off how tough they all are.
If Marco got the wars of aggression he fucking wants there'd be no way his children would have to fight in these wars. That's for other people.

(43,299 posts)He'd have to show up to get the job done. And no-show Rubio has the worst attendance record
in the Senate. Why should we expect a different performance if he gets the Oval Office?

(58,785 posts)spending a good part of a projected $1 billion or so to have Rubio's name, face, and voice coming at us from all directions. What isn't spent smearing our candidate, of course.
I plan to turn off the TV and work in the garden when it gets too much.
