NY Times vs Rubio

Here is a young man born to immigrant parents actually living poor, poor neighborhood, becomes a Florida house representitive and later elected to be a United States Senate

Here comes the NY Times trying to degrade the kid about his life, traffic tickets and a couple of accidents....he is more like the average American, owes a mortgage, bills, loans, etc:....one of the few or the only senator that struggles.....probably Y he got to be the youngest elected, the average joe can relate too.... He does not own 2 mansions and does not get 500 thou to speak thru the back door of hillary's charitable foundations, in order to buy groceries....

"When its not about money,it's all about money."...

Rubio had, what, 4 tickets in 15+ years? That's news? Because God knows all Democrats have perfect driving records, right? Ted Kennedy on Chappaquid#^&#^&#^&#^&, that didn't stop the NYT from endorsing Bubbles for the US Senate for 85 consecutive years. But Rubio's 4 tickets deem him un-fit?

A joke, that's all the NYT is.

Your anger is showing again.

The most pulitzers of any newspaper. Just because you don't like it's politics. As if Faux news wouldn't be all over it if it was a Dem.

His wife got 13 tickets. Almost like she tries to get tickets.

No anger, just pointing out the obvious. Contrary to what you profess, it's possible to point out these things, without being in the middle of a rage.

"most pulitzers of any newspaper"

Oh, well then, it must therefore be balanced. Obama has a Nobel Peace prize, I guess that means he's a moderate who likes to represent all points of view.

Faux news, haw haw haw! You sure stuck it to Rupert Murdoch there! And yes, some of the simpletons would be all over it. Some of the serious hosts wouldn't touch it.

Hilary's spouse was dis-barred and impeached. How does that compare to minor motor vehicle infractions?

Are spouses fair game now, or only for Republicans? Let's compare Rubio's spouse with Hilary's spouse, shall we?

"most pulitzers of any newspaper"

Oh, well then, it must therefore be balancedDid anyone say it was balanced? Or had to have 1 political ideology to get recognized for journalistic exellence? . Obama has a Nobel Peace prize, I guess that means he's a moderate who likes to represent all points of viewHuh?

Faux news, haw haw haw! You sure stuck it to Rupert Murdoch there!glad you liked that. And yes, some of the simpletons would be all over it. Some of the serious hosts wouldn't touch it.
Truth be told I'd like to hear more about his stance on immigration as that seems to change depending on what segment he is trying to court.

Are spouses fair game now, or only for Republicans? so you think pointing out that how many tickets she has is going after her? You don't recall coverage on Hillary bf she was a Senator? Or Michelle Obama?Let's compare Rubio's spouse with Hilary's spouse, shall we?
Compare who ever you want. This is not my site.

Clearly not the Peoples Republic of Massachusetts or the State of Rhode Island and Socialist Republic where it is virtually IMPOSSIBLE for an elected official to be accused of any wrong doing, certainly nothing as minor as a traffic violation.
