Trump Is Bad - Yes - Cruz Is Horrific - Yes - But Rubio Is The Worst

http://crooksandliars.com/2016/03/marco-rubio-attacks-democrats-politicizing

Fox spent all of two minutes on the Flint water crisis during their debate in Detroit Michigan, and of course Marco Rubio spent that time attacking and blaming Democrats.

...The Florida senator called the water crisis “a terrible thing” and said that elected officials must be held accountable. But he also accused Democrats of turning the lead poisoning scandal into a “partisan issue.”

Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) ran ads in Michigan that focused on the crisis and railed against local officials, including Gov. Rick Synder (R), for failing to protect the health of their constituents.

“It’s absurd,” Rubio fumed about the Democratic response. “It’s outrageous.”

What's "outrageous" is Rubio defending the poisoning of the residents and children of Flint.

Think about it. We have three presidential candidates making penis jokes and insults, bragging about dick size, calling each other names and saying whatever shit they want about the others, none of which bears any resemblance to reality. What we are seeing is not intelligent and rasonable political discourse, it is a 5th grade pissin match. Seriously, are these miscreants the people we want to have access to the nuclear arsenal? Are these the people we want controlling the most powerful military on earth? God I hope not
