The Hypocrisy of Marco Rubio

Predictable: Sen. Marco Rubio told the media that President Obama's "call for a mere budget freeze does not go far enough in tackling our record debt." Rubio was the Speaker of the Florida House and created pork budgets that have resulted in criminal investigations. The indicted Ray Samson and the Taj Mahal courthouse were under Rubio's speakership.

"Ray Sansom is a high quality person. He's one of the best people I ever interacted with in the legislative process. ... He's in the middle of a process, and he'll have to let the process go through,'' the Miami Republican said when asked if Sansom should step down as Speaker for the good of the legislature and his party. "He understands he's got a perception problem. ... It comes down to his ability to his ability to focus on the job, and if he can focus on the job then I don't think it's a problem."

Rubio showed a lack of fiscal conservatism with the Republican Party of Florida credit card by running up a $110,000 bill.
