Down to the insults and potshots again. And another debate against Masta won by Dangolegators.
Hahaha! When someone makes the observation that your absurd, senseless arguments are absurd and make no sense, as I and several others have done in this thread and in countless other threads in the past, it's not an insult that means you win the argument. It's a statement of fact that means you lose.
From the State of the Union Response by The Man Who is Going to Steal the Hispanic Vote from the Dems, which is all the GOP needs to do to create an entrenched majority and restore America to greatness:
Quote:
Presidents in both parties – from John F. Kennedy to Ronald Reagan – have known that our free enterprise economy is the source of our middle class prosperity. But President Obama? He believes it's the cause of our problems. That the economic downturn happened because our government didn't tax enough, spend enough and control enough. And, therefore, as you heard tonight, his solution to virtually every problem we face is for Washington to tax more, borrow more and spend more.
This idea – that our problems were caused by a government that was too small – it's just not true. In fact, a major cause of our recent downturn was a housing crisis created by reckless government policies. And the idea that more taxes and more government spending is the best way to help hardworking middle class taxpayers – that's an old idea that's failed every time it's been tried.
More government isn't going to help you get ahead. It's going to hold you back. More government isn't going to create more opportunities. It's going to limit them. And more government isn't going to inspire new ideas, new businesses and new private sector jobs. It's going to create uncertainty. Because more government breeds complicated rules and laws that a small business can't afford to follow. Because more government raises taxes on employers who then pass the costs on to their employees through fewer hours, lower pay and even layoffs.
...
Now does this mean there's no role for government? Of course not. It plays a crucial part in keeping us safe, enforcing rules, and providing some security against the risks of modern life. But government's role is wisely limited by the Constitution. And it can't play its essential role when it ignores those limits.
As our Great Senator for Florida Marco Rubio says, our government serves the crucial role of "providing some security against the risks of modern life," which is the purpose of programs such as Medicare. But expanding the size of government and assigning it costly new jobs to do is not the best way to grow the economy, and it jeopardizes government's ability to adequately serve those essential purposes that we agree it should serve.
Been quite busy getting ready for the arrival of our third child and just tired of the same old same old.

Rubio says government programs fail every time:

Rubio evokes his dead daddy to say how awesome Medicare is:
Quote:
One of these programs, Medicare, is especially important to me. It provided my father the care he needed to battle cancer and ultimately die with dignity. And it pays for the care my mother receives now. I would never support any changes to Medicare that would hurt seniors like my mother.
Rubio evokes his dead daddy to say how awesome Medicare is:
Rubio evokes "his dead daddy," huh? You're so classy.
Every poster but you - Left and Right - understands that when Rubio said "fails every time" he was referring directly to 0bama's approach to the economy that Rubio described two sentences earlier in the speech: "[H]is solution to virtually every problem we face is for Washington to tax more, borrow more and spend more."
Rubio clearly explained that Medicare is an important, beneficial program that needs to be preserved, but that increasing the overall size of government is not the best way to do it. In fact he is saying that growing the government and giving it new jobs to do will jeopardize its ability to efficiently perform the jobs it does now.

Let's see a show of hands from posters other than dangole who think there's something inconsistent about what Rubio is saying, considering the context of his whole speech.

So the solution to the problem of old people not being able to afford healthcare was to tax more, borrow more, and spend more.
Then Rubio says taxing more, borrowing more, and spending more fails every time:

And let's not get into [Rubio's] immigration status...
