blue bits. red rocks.

And when Rubio goes on to say broadly of programs like Obama’s stimulus bill that “these are tired and old big government ideas, ideas that people come to America to get away from,” he makes a mistake that is as stupid and lamentable as it is understandable: Having come from the prison of Castro’s Cuba, his family and families like his vowed to banish communism from the earth forever. And in their zeal they sometimes seem to find communism everywhere, including Washington. And after three and a half years of Obama, in this hall in Tampa, through this looking glass, for the assembled delegates and luminaries of the GOP, it has become an article of faith that Barack Obama is a socialist, maybe even a communist. (A communist running like hell for reelection, as they have throughout history.) There is a good and necessary and vigorous argument to be made against President Obama’s reelection, but this is not it. It is absurd, and does a grave injustice to communism’s true victims. Senator, your family didn’t leave Cuba to get away from Social Security. Or the GI Bill. Or even Obamacare. Marco Rubio Through the Looking Glass
