He Chuckled
And let’s dispel once and for all with this fiction that Marco Rubio doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he’s doing. Marco Rubio is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make New Hampshire more like the rest of the hateful states.
In New Hampshire yesterday, Marco Rubio got his automatically repeating butt confronted by a happily married man who owns a nice restaurant, has three children, and is registered as an Independent. To Rubio’s chagrin, the man, Timothy Kierstead, is married to a man. Kierstead asked Rubio, “Why do you want to put me back in the closet?”
“I don’t,” Mr. Rubio replied. “You can live any way you want.”
You know, except married, and any of the benefits attached thereto because you’re not worthy.
But that wasn’t the funnest moment of the day.
Sexuality, it seems, was a recurring theme during Mr. Rubio’s visit to the diner. A different patron in the same restaurant, a 92-year-old woman, asked Mr. Rubio about the personal life of Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina.
“He’s a bachelor, right?” the woman asked.
“He is,” Mr. Rubio said.
Then she asked, “Is he gay?”
Mr. Rubio chuckled. “No,” he replied.
And let’s dispel once and for all with this fiction that Lindsey Graham doesn’t know what he’s doing. Lindsey Graham knows exactly what he’s doing. Lindsey Graham is undertaking a systematic effort to change this country, to make this country totally blind to stuff.
Thanks to Brian for the heads up.
Rubio has publicy (and of course repeatedly) stated he will appoint anti choice, anti LGBT, and basically anti anything I am pro Supreme Court Justices.
1Heh. I think I like the people of New Hampshire.
2What Rubio means is “dispense with”, not “dispel with.” Dispel is not followed by with in standard English.
3Tangential I know, but I’m sick of Lindsey Graham. He’s had his 15 minutes. He contributes nothing worthwhile to the political conversation. And for the record I care not a whit with whom or what Lindsay has sex or if he does.
4I guess everybody’s afraid to tell Marco that President Obama isn’t running for that position, third term etc. He would have to memorize a whole new spiel and his motherboard might burn out.
5This guy has just as many system wiring problems as the rest of the clown car! Sad . . .
6I agree with Lorraine in Spring, and I hope those good folks hand Marco Rubio his nether parts (in deference to Momma), repeatedly. He’s making the hateful policies he supports sound almost plausible, compared to the other nutjobs running, but he’s as dangerous to the welfare of the country as any of them.
7Poor Water Boy. His efforts to raise his stature with those booties was an epic fail. So his latest effort is sporting a five o’clock shadow to prove he’s a big boy. Seriously??! That’s the acme of his decision making ability; do nothing. When the choices are shave or grow a beard, this lazy punk sleeps in and does neither. Good metaphor for his Senate ‘career.’
8Rubes and Snarly will unfortunately hang aboot until the convention because they are useful idiots. Either could find themselves on the big ticket for balance. And if HRC is in control on the Dem side it would be a tactical move to at least offer Snarly the veep for the simplest of reasons: she may say nasty things aboot Hilary that the boys may not. Rubes would shill to the Hispanic voter, although my fluently Spanish speaking daughter-in-law opines his command of spoken Spanish is not impressive.
9There’s things we know and things we don’t know and then there’s things we pretend we don’t know, just out of politeness. I hope Rubio knows the difference.
10It was also in NH that a man (truck driver type) in a diner who’d asked Mitt about his policy on gays was then asked by a reporter if he agreed, and the man said hell no, because he’s gay.
As for Graham, I enjoyed this in the delightful column someone mentioned about which candidates you’d want on your side in a bar fight. Graham was tied for #2:
“But what really earns him this spot is the fact that young men who live in certain areas of this country and do not display enough broad stereotypical indicators of macho heterosexual masculinity have to learn how to win a fistfight, and they have to learn it early. I guarantee you: Lindsey Graham can ****ing fight. He’s not going to be easy to goad into a bar fight, but once it’s on, Lindsey Graham is going to go full-on balls-out hammer-down mad-monkey terrordome crazy, and he will take on three guys if he has to. Hell, he may take on three guys just for the sheer pleasure of it.”

11Lindsey likes to fight? Now that is something to think about.
12Marge… you made me giggle. Shame on you. (Wink)
13The U.S. changes. That’s what we do. If we froze the country in time, culture, languages, food, or ethnic groups, it wouldn’t be the U.S. any more. I don’t want to go back to a time when I didn’t know what Vietnamese food was and “Mexican” meant greasy enchiladas.
14@ Maggie- And as any mechanic( forgot they are no longer mechanics, they’re “technicians” and wear gloves) will tell you there’s nothing more difficult to track down and repair than a malfunction in the wiring(electrical) system.
