I don’t watch CNN or any TV news; I just read the (e)paper. What happened, exactly?
I saw Rubio take a drink of water after the State of the Union, and while it was a little awkward, I didn’t think it was a big deal.

That’s good. And as I tell kids; don’t ever start that junk (MSM) you’ll never get off of it.

The usual…
CNN (and ALL the Main Stream Media) have picked up the water reaching episode and run with it. I really just picked CNN because I was more familiar with them. Any of the MSM could have been the subject of that parody.
They’re basically calling it “Water-gate” and “career ending”. MSNBC played the clip 155 times the day after the speech. CNN played it a paltry 34 times, but you get the picture.
It’s really just their sad excuse used to ignore and not report or discuss the substance of what Rubio had to say; as if they were ever going to do that anyway.
Now, the late night comedians, not to mention the Comedy Central guys, and Saturday Night Live have picked up the ball and run with it.
It’s just the beginning of the lefts attempt to do to Rubio what they have done (demean and libel) to many Republican upstarts.
As for the Christopher Dorner story, a leftist commentator (who often appears on the O’Reilly Factor) pretty well said what was in the parody cartoon. I did paraphrase it from memory; but I’m not too far off.
>> I saw Rubio take a drink of water after the State of the Union, and while it was a little awkward, I didn’t think it was a big deal.
My sentiments exactly. But the MSM wet themselves when they saw it.
I just wish a liberal politician like Obama or Biden would do (or say) something like that every now and then. But alas, they never do, otherwise CNN would play it 34 times in a 24 hour period.
I see. I guess it’s like the President Ford thing where he tripped and bumped his head, and they made jokes about him being clumsy *forever*… even though he was athletic. Rubio is a sharp guy, and 2016 is a long ways off. I think/hope he’ll be fine.
