Rubio Says You Have to Vote For Him to Find Out What he Stands For

We all remember Nancy Pelosi’s famous line about Obamacare, where she said it had to be passed to find out what is inside it.  Marco Rubio is telling voters basically the same thing.  He has been a big supporter of Obamatrade.  The problem is that Obamatrade is very unpopular.  Rubio has announced that he will not reveal how he intends to vote on the bill (assuming he actually shows up for the vote) until after May 18th.  By that date 44 states will have already voted for their favorite candidate.

If you notice, in the four debates run by Fox News, not once was he asked about his previous support for Obamatrade.  So much for tough but fair.  In the most recent debate, Rubio also got much more air time than any other candidate.  Ben Carson hardly got to speak at all.  Of course that has no connection to the fact that Rupert Murdoch supports the same open borders as the establishment candidate Rubio or the fact that the one who writes the questions for the debate, Bill Sammon is the father of Brook Sammon, the National Press secretary for Marco Rubio.

The fact that Fox News has constantly attacked Donald Trump and Ted Cruz, while promoting Rubio as the only candidate that can beat Hillary has nothing to do with the fact that Fox News has turned liberal.  In Fox News polls, Rubio miraculously beat Hillary easily even though he was in 5th and 6th spot in most of the polls at that time.  As Judge Judy always says, “If it doesn’t make sense, it’s not true.”

Rick Tyler, communications director for Ted Cruz hit the nail on the head, when he said:

“Marco Rubio not indicating whether he is for or against TPP, and refusing to answer the question, forces us to further speculate about what else he isn’t telling us. What else is Rubio not telling the voters about his positions?” 

“It’s unacceptable. Voters have a right to know where we stand on the issues. [Rubio’s] saying that, ‘I’m not going to tell you until you vote me in’ is just absurd.  Fortunately, the voters are smarter than that. If he [Rubio] doesn’t want to give them information, they don’t have to give him their vote.”

Rubio is also trying to hide his position on amnesty by saying he’s not for amnesty but that the illegals should get green cards.  He’s counting on the fact that his voters don’t realize a green card is the first step towards citizenship, welfare, Social Security and voting rights.
