Mitt Romney's Presidential Prom While John Ellis Bush Tells Polish Jokes in Poland

So Mittens couldn't get elected, but he sure could introduce candidates to millionaires, billionaires, and gazillionaires, all the "major" contestants save for John Ellis Bush! busy flubbing his lines in Poland, meeting with a Polish politician who called we Americans losers and then stating it worthless to have a relation with us, the US of :
[Radislaw] Sikorski was caught up with several other Polish government ministers in what has become known as “waitergate,” a scandal where private conversations were secretly recorded over $500 meals at one of Warsaw’s fanciest restaurants. Sikorski, for his part, was caught complaining that Poland’s relationship with the United States was “bullshit” and “worthless” before dropping his most famous observation. “We’ll get into a conflict with the Russians and the Germans, and we’ll think that everything is super because we gave the Americans a blow job,” he said. “Losers. Complete losers.” 
When asked about whether it was a good idea to still take a meeting with Sikorski, the Bush team stressed that the event had been arranged long ago. A good follow-up question, however, might have been “How long ago?” For, while the now ex-minister, ex-speaker only stepped aside the day before JEB! met him, the revelations of diplomatic oral sex are now over a year old.... 
Speaking in Berlin (before he even made it to Poland), Bush ad-libbed an assessment of Russia under Vladimir Putin. Jeb called Putin a “ruthless pragmatist” (which seemed like an attempt to split the difference between praising and criticizing the Russian leader ... because there actually is some tension in the GOP on this front) before saying NATO needs to push back, but not push too much because “ultimately Russia needs to be a European nation.” 
“Everything we do,” Bush added, “ought to be to isolate [Russia’s] corrupt leadership from its people.” 
“I think it was one of the most inane things that a candidate could run for,” observed Steve Clemons, Washington editor at large for The Atlantic, on MSNBC’s “The Last Word,” noting — correctly — “the Russian people feel enormous support for Vladimir Putin.” Clemons likened the remarks to telling Texans they are ultimately part of New England.  (emphasis added) http://america.aljazeera.com/blogs/scrutineer/2015/6/15/gaffe-filled-copy-from-jebs-gaffe-free-trip.html
Meanwhile back in America with the "losers," Mario "Crazy Legs" Rubio donned a pair of shorts showing off his legs, and played football--offense only--and cravenly sought cash:
It’s getting to the point where one can’t help but wonder if the reason all these Republican candidates for president are having trouble breaking away from the pack might simply be attributed to the fact that they spend so much time attending donor “summits” that they don’t have time to appeal to actual voters. Yes, most of the passengers on the GOP magic bus made yet another pilgrimage this past week-end to yet another gathering of millionaires and billionaires, this one hosted by the would-be King and wannabe Kingmaker, Mitt Romney.... 
According to one report, he “played offense the whole time, to show off his arm and avoid humiliating any millionaire campaign contributors with tough defense.” http://www.salon.com/2015/06/15/what_mitt_romneys_bizarre_weekend_retreat_reveals_about_the_gop_primary

One suspects they will all avoid talking to real voters as long as possible, since they have no new ideas, just blind faith in St. Raygunz, Ronnie Reagan Sr as you know him.  This as JEB! stumbles over his words; he wouldn't know a fact if it bit him in the ass.

Chris Christie will take a back seat to no one in pandering and sucking up to rich folk.  Don't like his stance on immigration?  He'll happily change his mind to suit yours.  Lindsey Graham who never found a war he wouldn't fight with your children's blood, attended Mitten's soiree, as did Marco "Crazy Legs" Rubio, he'll do what Obama has done, only sterner, a man who rode JEB!'s coattails in FL and never had an idea of his own.  If Johnny Ellis wants to fart, he'll have to ask Marco to move his nose first.

Of JEB!, 2008 Nobel prize winning economist Paul Krugman wrote, "So Jeb! is basically promising that as president, he can generate Florida-style bubbles, which bring disaster when they burst, to the rest of America!"

Forget American history, John Ellis doesn't even know his own family history, glaringly displayed when he gave his sycophant suk up shadow a golden sword; hope it had no sharp edges cause morons shouldn't have sharp swords.  http://krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/06/14/dont-know-much-about-history-jeb-bush-edition

Marco Rubio: The dog ate my homework

Look, these toads and trolls keep flubbing an easy question.  Should the United States have spent trillions of dollars and shed the blood of our young men and women over lies cooked up like rhetorical metheamphetimine by neo-conservative idiots?

The question seems practically inevitable; everyone on Earth new it would come except for the Republican'ts running for President.

Actually watching  Marco Rubio flounder and flail while trying to answer this question gives hours of enjoyment, fun for the whole family.

Every sentient being deems the war a catastrophic failure, except for a handful of dead end neocons, W., President Cheney, and Ron Roby.  Facts won't change their mind; so watch and enjoy Mr Still Wet Behind the Ears Rubio go down in flames.

Pot Calls Kettle Black; Marco Rubio Uses Obamace for insurance for family

Well, well, it turns out Senator Marco Rubio, R-Hypocrisy, has availed himself of subsidies given under the Affordable Care Act to provide health care insurance for his family.  Rubio, one of the staunchest of the staunch oponents of the Act, took $10,000 in money from taxpayers to line his own pockets.  Although perfectly legal, Rubio once again showed he has no ethics, morals, sense of dignity, or self respect,  and can crawl under the belly of a snake when it serves his own self interest.

Rubio, the fair haired and well coiffed illegitimate political spawn of Governor JEB!,  could have signed up for the insurance coverage but rejected the governmental welfare as did Senator Lindsey Graham, but no, that might have required a sense of shame.  Even a first grader realizes you can't say with a straight face something bad and then do it.

Rubio, however, ever able to dance on the head of a metaphor, manages to do just that.

[Though a staunch Obamacare critic, U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio has enrolled his family in one of its health plans and will accept a $10,000 federal subsidy that some fellow Republicans rejected as a “special deal.”

Rubio on Monday defended his decision to accept the annual subsidy, and said it wasn’t that special.

“It’s an [employer] contribution,” Rubio said. “It’s available to every employee of the federal government.”

Rubio pointed out that, as a member of Congress, he is required to enroll in an Affordable Care Act plan if he wants health insurance through his employer, the federal government....

Rubio’s decision ....puts him at odds with some Republicans who refuse to accept the federal contribution money in a protest of the Affordable Care Act.....

So far, about 10 other senators and a handful of U.S. House members have rejected or avoided receiving the annual subsidy.....

Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., didn’t want to wait that long. He made a big deal last week when he announced he was enrolling in Obamacare but rejecting the employer contribution.] emphasis added so I can savor the irony.]
