Why You Should Not Vote For Marco Rubio

The Family Research Council has endorsed Marco Rubio. If you back a woman's right over her own body then you do not want to vote for Marco Rubio.

Rep. Rubio has fought to protect mothers and their unborn children. He supported pro-life legislation that would require doctors to complete ultrasounds before performing abortions thus giving the mother an opportunity to assess the consequences of her actions.

If you support science and stem cell research then you do not want to vote for Marco Rubio.

Rep. Rubio also understands the importance of adult stem cell research in treating patients. He also endorsed legislation to ensure that taxpayers aren’t forced to fund embryonic stem cell research.

Translation: Rubio will not support embryonic stem cell research. The scientific data is embryonic stem cells are more likely regenerate tissue. embryonic stem cells be be manipulated into other cells. Scientists can trace what causes diseases.



Rubio bills himself as a Reagan conservative. Former First Lady Nancy Reagan supports embryonic stem cell research. There is room in science for both embryonic and adult stem cell research. The conservative ideological disdain for science will not allow both.

If you support the civil rights of gay and lesbian people than you do not want to vote for Marco Rubio.

“Rep. Rubio’s many years of advocacy on behalf of pro-family causes will serve him well in the Senate. FRC Action PAC believes that Marco Rubio will be a true advocate for the issues that best uphold and strengthen families. We are proud to support his candidacy,” concluded (Tony)Perkins.

Tony Perkins blamed the LGBT community are the behavior of Congressman Mark Foley. Perkins labeled the LGBT community as posing "one of the greatest public health risks in America."

Apparently, our nation is never too broke to advance a radical social agenda. The agency released a statement on the Center last week, saying its purpose would be to "help community-based organizations understand the unique needs... of older LGBT individuals and assist them in implementing programs for local service providers..." In the release, HHS regurgitates the Left's propaganda to justify the waste, claiming that "1.5 to 4 million" LGBTs are age 60 and older. In reality, HHS has no idea how many LGBT seniors exist. No one does! The movement is only a few decades old, and people who are 80- or 90-years-old didn't grow up in a culture where it was acceptable to identify with this lifestyle.

Rubio placed Perkins' endorsement on his campaign web site. Rubio's idea of building a big tent is getting an endorsement from a man whom does not want gays to run as Republicans. Rubio is seeking the support of tea baggers and the Christian Right. It is easy to see why the son of Cuban immigrants now supports making English the national language.

When asked about ``English-only'' legislation at the Republican women's club meeting, Rubio declared: ``I believe English is the unifying language of America.'' The sweeping statement glossed over Rubio's previously stated opposition to proposals in Congress that could outlaw ballots and government documents in Spanish.

Not providing Spanish versions of legislation is a trivia issue conservatives get worked up about. They don't care if people don't have health care. Spanish copies of bill is an issue that is a call to arms for conservatives. Rubio is seeking the xenophobic vote. Rubio doesn't have policy positions. He has conservative talking points and fearmongering.

Sarah Palin On Stem Cell Research

The McCain campaign made a horrible mistake running stating that Sarah Palin supports stem cell research. The whole point of putting Sarah Palin, on the ticket, was to appease Christian conservatives. Now the McCain campaign pulls this.

Palin's spokeswoman Maria Comella told CNN that Palin does and does not support stem cell research. At the same time.

Palin's spokesperson Maria Comella confirmed those remarks constitute Palin's position, but said that "a McCain-Palin administration will be pro-stem cell research."

Even though Palin opposes it?

"Yep," Comella said.

On the Issues listed Palin as being against stem cell research. The Washington Post quotes Palin's 2006 postition. The GOP platform is to ban "all embryonic stem-cell research, public or private."

In a gubernatorial debate in 2006, Palin said, "With a pro-life position, and it's interesting that so many questions revolve around this centeredness I have for respecting life, and the potential of every human life, but no, stem-cell research would ultimately end in the destruction of life. I couldn't support it."

The McCain campaign has been screwing up their talking points. A radio ad for stem cell research will not have much single issue impact. Thr ad feeds into the image that McCain and Palin lies about their positions.

McCain has never found his voice during this campaign. McCain has the desire to be President. He never figured out why he wanted to be president. Earmarks (which no one likes) is the domestic message that McCain is the most passionate about. That tells me McCain hasn't spent time thinking about the economy, housing market or education. The This Week panel members Sam Donaldson and George Will commented how McCain went into panic mode.

George Will on McCain: "Populism is always pandering. And pandering is always the reverse of leadership."

It's desperation.
