Marco Rubio slams latest Obama jobs proposal

Source: The Hill

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) slammed the jobs legislation that was blocked by Republicans in the Senate Thursday, calling it a "bailout" and "stimulus 2.0."

"I support a real jobs plan. I don't think what we voted on today is a real jobs plan. I think it's another bailout of local governments," said Rubio in a Web video posted Thursday.

The $35 billion Democratic measure was designed to prevent layoffs of teachers, police officers and firefighters in cash-strapped states. Most of the funding, $30 billion, would have gone to saving teaching jobs, with the rest of the money directed to first responders.

Rubio made the issue personal in his video statement, saying although he has firefighters and teachers in his own family, he could not support more spending when there is already massive federal debt.
"We can not afford to be bailing out local governments. We can not afford stimulus 2.0. We can not afford another stimulus program which is what the president is proposing," he added.

It's time to clean up the mess from the flash in the pan.


Sorry, Jeb.


It ain't gonna be this one.

this yappy the last year and a half.

But, politicians like these speak with forked tongues.

Rubio shuts door on VP nod






Probably because of this:

Rubio's negative numbers on the climb all year, October 6, 2011



This little Jeb Bush loyalist can't hide from his past.


And the more people find out about the disgraceful magnitude of it, the faster he leaves the scene.


Don't let the door hit you on the way out, Marco. Because you are on the way out.

My mother had an old saying...

"fools names, like fools faces, always found in public places"

Being he has so much trouble remembering where his family is from.

Blah.

maybe he should shut the hell up and go back where he came from!

...wow...gotta admit Rube, those are some kind of balls that you've got.

after these latest revelations that your entire family's story of exile is crap...Orly Taitz will soon be on your tail.

She's a real pitbull, that one, I'm sure we'll soon be hearing demands for your birth certificate!

Wait until Faux News gets ahold of this one :sarcasm:

Guess he doesn't give a shit about his own people getting laid off. Of course he doesn't offer up any proof. Sounds like when someone says they have black friends after saying something racist.

... a bunch of teachers and firefighters, and contains no spending?

That sounds more like a job loss plan to me. It's hard to believe anybody is stupid enough to believe such nonsense.
