Marco Rubio fires back at 'sad' Jeb Bush campaign after attack by Bush's super PAC
Business Insider ^ | 12/29/15 | Colin Campbell

Rubio's campaign spokesman, Alex Conant, also called the pro-Bush ad "sad" and factually incorrect on one of the national-security hearings it highlighted.

"Bush's team dishonestly omits that Marco is on the Senate's Intelligence Committee, where he attended the highest-level briefings on the Paris attacks," Conant said in a statement. "No other candidate for president has received more classified Intelligence briefings or better understands the threats facing our nation today than Marco. It's sad to see Jeb's 'joyful' campaign reduced to such intellectual dishonesty."

Bush's super PAC, or political action committee, is legally required to be independent of his campaign, but Right to Rise is nevertheless closely tied to his operation.

“No other candidate has received more classified Intelligence Briefings (as Marco Rubio)”

Who is he kidding .. Ted Cruz is on the Intel Committee, and as far as I know, he would also be included in the briefings.

So, while Rubio is busy challenging Bush’s statement, maybe he better check his own, for leaving off the name of Ted Cruz who was also included in the briefings.

Marco will be faced with quite the conundrum when he drops out. Burning bridges to both Trumpites and Cruziers, it's almost as if he prefers HilLIARy to either one. Perhaps there is more in common with the HilLIAR.

Hard to feel sorry for Marco at this point.

Does everything for Cruz supporters have to come back to Cruz? Can’t you just be happy that Jeb and Rubio are knocking the hell out of each other? You all sound like the person who volunteers to do something and then spends the next three days reminding everyone about his sacrifice.

"Does everything for Cruz supporters have to come back to Cruz? "

Quite a few Cruz supporters work hard everyday to piss off as many people as possible. Then they try real hard to blame it all on Trump. lol

It concluded: "Politics first: That's the Rubio way."

On the surface, this appears entirely true. I suspect when Rubio made the jump from Florida state politics to DC, he was unprepared for the slime that controls the Beltway. Playing politics ("horse trading") is often the way to get things done -- even good things -- in politics, but in DC it's been lowered from an artform to a sleezy way to cash in on big money. The only real compromise that happens in DC nowadays is of principles.

Both Yeb! and Young Yeb! are for open borders and no enforcement against fraudulently documented foreigners, so neither one has any interest in our national security.

Sir Rubio is running a “brilliant” NO SHOW campaign. /s

Brave Sir Rubio ran away
Bravely ran away away
When the Budget reared its ugly head
He bravely turned his tail and fled
Yes, brave Sir Rubio turned about
And gallantly he chickened out

Bravely taking to his feet
He beat a very brave retreat
Bravest of the brave, Sir Rubio!
