Marco Rubio caught in HUGE, HUGE lie.

[Charles_Main]

The Florida political leader has always publicly identified as part of the Cuban exile community. His Senate website says his parents came to America following Fidel Castro’s 1959 takeover.

But media reports Thursday revealed they’d emigrated to the U.S. in 1956. Rubio’s father was a bartender and came for economic reasons. Castro wasn’t even in Cuba when they left.

Another Republican caught red handed, lying. Guess that means he won't be vice president. Not until people forget his lies.

It's like Republicans saying, "But half the country does't pay taxes" when EVERYONE pays sales tax and payroll tax.

You have to listen carefully to everything Republicans say. Even though it's all bullshit over and over again, they repeat the same lies so often, people start to believe them.

What other lies have they been caught saying, recently? Hmm, so many to choose from.

You are an Idiot, they left before Castro Took Power, But after the Civil war started. My god man.

It's called pandering

Oh, what a tangled web we weave,
When, at first, we practice to deceive.​

The man lied and lied and lied over the yearsa.

He got caught in his lies.

One has to ignore all the changing stories he's told over the years to believe otherwise.

Just a guess on my part, but more than likely he pushed the fled from Castro story because it plays better that you fled communism than you fled to improve your economic circumstances when a right wing dictator was in power. At least among his "conservative" supporters.

Oh yeah!!!...conservatives always flee socialism and communism....they never flee from capitalists!

That's not the dumbest comment I've read here on USMB, but you did make the top 10.

A little fyi for you; Capitalism can only exist in a free society. Now who would want to leave a free society? And, just how dumb would you have to be to transform a free society into one that isn't?

Well....seeing as Obama has a law degree and attended some of the top Ivy League schools in the country...I guess you dont have to be TOO dumb.

Did it?

Or are you just repeating what you assume to be his bio?

Btw, ha ha....I can't believe this nonsense is still being discussed......But did't his parents try to visit relatives after Castro and just barely get out of there? I read that his Dad was put in jail.

A "Huge,Huge lie" is committing perjury and being Impeached and disbarred. This aint no huge,huge lie.

Clinton was found innocent, asshole.

In 2000 the Arkansas Supreme Court's Committee on Professional Conduct called for the disbarment of President Bill Clinton, saying he lied about his affair with Monica Lewinsky. In January 2001 Clinton reached an agreement under which he was ordered to pay $25,000 in fines to Arkansas state's bar officials and his Arkansas law license was suspended for five years.[4] The agreement came on the condition that Whitewater prosecutors would not pursue federal perjury charges against him.[5] Clinton was suspended by the Supreme Court in October 2001, and, facing disbarment from that court, Clinton resigned from the Supreme Court bar in November.[6]

Disbarment - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Irrelevant. Clinton was found innocent in his impeachment trial.

And OJ was found not guilty as well.
So I guess all is good with OJ.

Yes, it did.

And no, they went there, or his mother did according to her visa, and had no trouble leaving. Of course, Rubio has several different versions of that story as well, depending who he is talking to at the time.

I am not surprised that you read his dad was put in jail, especially since it isn't true. Is Rubio on record saying that.

 

[Si modo]

Oh yeah!!!...conservatives always flee socialism and communism....they never flee from capitalists!

So, all those Soviet, Chinese, Eastern Bloc, and Cuban refugees and defectors during communism are conservatives?

Whubuwhoo?????.......

......I was just being sarcastic.....I was trying to make the point that if Rubio DID flee a capitalist dictator...instead of fleeing dreaded communism/socialism....it wouldn't have as much publicity value for the GOP.

"Sarcasm", eh? Nice save from your stupid comment.

Clinton was found innocent, asshole.

He was impeached in the House and acquited of that an other charges in the Senate. A judge, however, found him guilty of contempt for refusing to testify truthfully. As a direct result of his false testimony, he was fined and disbarred for five years.


But, this is HUGE, HUGE!!!!!!!!

There are no determinations of guilt or innocence in civil actions.

culpability can be defined as "guilt" in civil actions. It is semantics.

 

[NYcarbineer]

Why is this huge? Or more precisely why could it be huge?

Because if this spooks the GOP sufficiently to knock Rubio off the VP short list, then the very huge advantage that the GOP might have gained in Florida, relatively speaking,

in the presidential race is gone and Florida stays very much more in play.

So you agree with the other idiot that Clinton was found guilty of perjury?

I laugh at how you are so wrapped up in republican and conservative candidates. The democrats can fart in your face and you wouldnt notice or care.

It is amusing to watch.

Not to mention that Rubio has enjoyed a reputation of being an honest and upright refugee whose parents fled from Castro.

Kind knocks that on its ass.



His public meltdown was just icing on the cake.

Something about visiting relatives still living in Cuba comes to mind.

I know it's hard to imagine, but it does happen from time to time.

Maybe you need to refrain from the Crack Pipe for awhile.

Yes....that was huge lie.

Massive.......

ROTF

Rubio's finished !

He will be replaced by Joy Bahr.

 

[ABikerSailor]

My first thought was that he has been lied to his entire life. Who fact checks their parents?

I did. But, that's because I had a lot of stuff that I was interested in learning about my family.
