Marco Rubio Supported “Cap And Trade” Energy Tax Hike

JUST LIKE LIBERAL LINDSEY GRAHAM … Just when we thought we’d settled on an elegant sufficiency of reasons to oppose the presidential candidacy of establishment “Republican” Marco Rubio, along comes another one … We knew Rubio hated liberty … yet loved Obamatrade, open borders and metrosexual footwear. What else does he love? Energy tax hikes ……

JUST LIKE LIBERAL LINDSEY GRAHAM …

Just when we thought we’d settled on an elegant sufficiency of reasons to oppose the presidential candidacy of establishment “Republican” Marco Rubio, along comes another one …

We knew Rubio hated liberty … yet loved Obamatrade, open borders and metrosexual footwear.

What else does he love?

Energy tax hikes … you know, the so-called “cap and trade” carbon tax hikes championed for years by liberal U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham.  In fact here’s a video of Rubio discussing “cap and trade” back in 2008, when he was still serving as Speaker of the Florida House of Representatives …

Yeah … that’s Rubio saying he supports a plan to allow the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to impose a new carbon tax on the state of Florida.

Wow …

You’re so determined to push your own agenda you’re willing to deliberately spin the facts. SHOCKER. Rubio inserted a poison pill to kill the cap and trade bill that Gov Crist pushed through the FL house. (https://twitter.com/theshoebart/status/687316448520224768)

Also, here’s the full, not deceptively edited video where Rubio says he doesn’t want Cap and Trade implemented and only free market energy solutions will work: http://thefloridachannel.org/videos/house-speaker-marco-rubio/

Sen. Michael Bennet, D-CO

Sen. Richard J. Durbin, D-IL

Sen. Jeff Flake, R-AZ

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-SC

Sen. John McCain, R-AZ

Sen. Bob Menendez, D-NJ

Ya know I was talking to my sister tonight who has worked for the federal government for 30 years in a position that she can’t tell us what she does and I told her I am tired of your threats and taunts.

Keep fucking with me.Everybody has some skeletons in the closet if you give em an anal exam.

You got one coming, good buddy.

If I was engaged in tax fraud – don’t you think I would be caught? Oops!!! Lack of logic in your comments.

He has slid down my list of viable contenders for the nomination.
But, once you get involved into the public sector, you realize your political expectations are more easily and quickly realized with the use of taxpayer money. And it does not require a great deal of physical or mental effort. All you have to do is raise your hand or say “Aye,” and hope your constituency did not notice.

How much is the Bush PAC paying you to try to get something, anything, to stick to Rubio? Fits rails against “The Establishment”, but he will take their money to sling mud, whether it’s boots, fluzies or carbon taxes. When tnis one fails to improve the Bush numbers what will you float next? That Rubio is Fidel’s bastard love child?

Nikki must not be supporting Rubio. She just said this in a presser.

While identifying policy differences with GOP field, Nikki Haley just said: “Marco Rubio believes in amnesty which I don’t.”

But she loves anchor babies. Rubio and Nikki have that in common. Nimrata Nikki Randhawa, Marco Antonio Rubio, Rafael Cruz. Can anyone believe knowing what we have gone through from illegal immigrants, that these three are what the GOP is offering. Two Anchor babies and the Canadian son of a Cuban Communist. Get real people!!!. Its time to vote American.

You mean he was for cap and trade before he was against it ? Haven’t I heard that lie somewhere before ???? LOL Grahamnasty told me who to vote for the other day. He said he could support anyone but Trump and Cruz. That dose it , I’m for Trump and Cruz. A Trump Cruz ticket would be good. Heavy on the Hispanic side. A Trump Fiorina ticket would also be great. There are more women than Hispanics any way. We just need every voter to support Trump. If he doesn’t get the nomination on the first ballot in Cincinnati , it will throw the race open to the establishment types to steal it from him.

So Will fell for Charlie Crist’s attack from 2010 I see. It’s not really hard to avoid being stupid.

See the video from 6 years ago – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0D4bubCEw7Y

The full statement from Rubio says he is against the agency trying to bring new rules and that government will never be the answer to cleaning up the environment.

I find it pretty easy to not be stupid. I suppose it’s a bit tougher for some.
