CPAC Comedy-Rubio Reads Teleprompter Joke, From Teleprompter

[Joanne98]

Well, today is the big day when Marco (Male-Palin) Rubio makes his big debut as a bona fide wing-nut and moves up from the “kids table” of mere winglets, and makes his big speech at CPAC, (Conservative Political Action Committee) that crazy gathering of pseudo conservatives who get together every year and attempt to turn hate speech about everyone and everything they don’t agree with into one long stand-up comedy routine. Very festive. It’s comedy all right, just that they don’t realize the joke is on them. But whose counting, right?

Little bits of Rubio’s speech are trickling out now from those who are there, so I thought I would share some of the “low-lights” as I come across them. (Personally I can’t stomach watching it or listening to it myself.)

First order of business? Obama-bashing of course! Their favorite sport. (I’ll bet they probably have an entire seminar on Obama bashing at the convention, I’ll have to look that up later.) Rubio started off with a teleprompter joke, which he probably read from one of the two teleprompters in front of him, or from his notes at the podium. (Writers from the Huffington Post who are there wrote that he was looking right at the teleprompters.) He’s isn’t the brightest bulb so he probably needed both to make sure he got it just right. Plus old Sarah kind of ruined that whole crib notes on the palm trick for him, so that wouldn’t have worked.

So let’s see how the winglet is doing so far. I’ll try to translate in bold:

“2010 is a referendum on the very identity of our nation,” (Psst, we have a black president.) he said of the 2010 election “And the issues are so big, (99.9% of the countries problems caused by Bush, but facts don’t count here) so consequential, (Obama is doing a pretty good job trying to fix things, in spite of our obstructions, bad for us in elections) so generational (Did I mention that we have a BLACK President?) that many of the old rules of political engagement will not apply. (Lying, hypocrisy, not working too well, facts interfering too much.) For example a long list of early establishment endorsements will not spare you a primary. (Again with the “facts” problem. Thank goodness we have that SCOTUS ruling now so that corporations can buy us seats if we suck up to them enough) Several one line slogans aren’t going to spare you the need to discuss policy issues in details. (But that won’t stop us from using them anyway) And the old tired political attacks that worked in the past aren’t going to get you elected this time.” (That’s why we need to get REALLY ugly and scare Tea Baggers with words like Socialism, evoke Hitler when possible, AND remind any prejudiced Tea Baggers that we have a black president because we need to hijack their Party, and their votes, while secretly working against all the values they hold dear, and hope they don’t figure that out before it’s time to vote.)

Whew. And that’s just the beginning of his speech!

1. Conservatives really lack self-awareness

Reminds me of the interviews that John Oliver did from Hawaii at the republican vacation meeting. When you hold a mirror up to these people they lack the ability to see their own refection.

2. A CPAC convention

is a great place for stupidity to beget itself.
