WaPo hit piece on Rubio escalates continuing war waged by liberals

There was a hit piece on Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) in The Washington Post on Friday. The writer took the time to research Rubio’s parents’ immigration papers.

WaPo noted Rubio’s parents came to the U.S. before Castro took all private lands, killed or imprisoned an indeterminate number of people and turned Cuba into a backwards land where, if you want to move, you must ask a government bureaucrat questions like Please, sir, may we swap our house?

Rubio’s parents arrived in the U.S. in May, 1956, with their son, Mario.

Rubio’s family built themselves an American dream like many of our own families did. Their arrival in 1956 suggests they saw the writing on the wall. Here’s why.

  • Resentment of the U.S. and a trending towards communism was festering in Cuba in 1955, one reason the CIA was interested enough to send Allen Dulles there that year.
  • Seymour Hersh in his N.Y. Times bestseller, The Dark Side of Camelot, details unrest in the mid-1950s when “the increasingly radical Castro had organized the 26th of July movement…" [pg. 156]
  • In November, 1956, The Deseret News, The Miami News and numerous other newspapers recounted how “armed civilians battled police in the streets of Santiago…in a revolutionary attempt to overthrow the government.”

Unlike pie-in-the-sky liberals, conservatives tend to think ahead. So Rubio’s dad got his family out while he could. The family did visit again, but by the early 1960s, it became clear that Castro was there to stay.

There is no story here. WaPo’s writer may see the writing on the wall when it comes to Rubio because the senator will be president one day if the Republican Party uses the brains I know we have.

The story isn’t even worthy of a link, but you can do a search under the writer’s name (Manuel Roig-Franzia) and come up with all sorts of tidbits. Leftwingers love this guy for obvious reasons.

Bear in mind WaPo isn’t exactly an honorable publication. For starters, that’s where the notorious Journolist originated. Through Journolist, another writer who worked for WaPo and his buddies in big media colluded to help President Barack Obama get elected. For our current misery index, thank legacy media like WaPo.

Then there was the “salon” WaPo wanted to host so influentials could meet Obama’s appointees and other staff:

“[F]or as much as $250,000, the Post offered lobbyists and association executives off-the-record access to ‘those powerful few’ — Obama administration officials, members of Congress, and even the paper’s own reporters and editors. “

WaPo was one of the first, by the way, to rush out a book about ObamaCare, the tax bill falsely promoted to the American people as healthcare reform. I read the bill and if you haven't, don't dare dispute what I'm saying because it's true.

This paper long ago lost its soul, but the Rubio hit piece re-opened another door: the figurative room where our president’s records are kept.

Many of us are still waiting on an investigation of Obama’s records. You could drive a team of donkeys through that gap, including questions about President Barack Obama’s very strange social security number(s?). Those numbers are just for starters. We know less about the Democrat in the White House than we’ve ever known about a US president.

Saturday Night Live can do all the not-funny skits they want to, but the absence of records on Obama is irrefutable.

Normally, I only look at Obama’s policy. But WaPo has now lit a path to all manner of examination of the president and I suggest conservatives ramp up the effort.

Here’s why. I tried to tell anyone who would listen—conservatives, Republicans, Libertarians—the left had declared war in 2008 just ahead of the General Election. This was the formal declaration; the war had been ongoing for quite some time, evidenced by the vitriol hurled at President George W. Bush.

Here’s what the Kosmeister at Daily Kos wrote in 2008. I hope you can hear me now:

“[W]e have an imperative to take advantage of a historic opportunity to break the conservative movement’s backs and crush their spirits. In the White House, that means getting Obama a broad popular and geographic mandate for change. In the House, that means annihilating the Republican caucus and working toward a 100-seat Democratic majority. In the Senate it means getting to a 60-seat filibuster proof majority…Republicans will claim that McCain wasn’t one of them, hence rationalizing away their loss. But if we decimate their ranks, including their conservative icons, it’ll make it harder for them to justify their spin. Remember, we want them broken, their ranks thinned, their treasury in heavy debt, their morale in the gutter, void of any leadership, discredited in the eyes of the public…A key component of this effort is to destroy their most beloved leaders…”

That post, from one of the biggest influencers on policy sought by Democrats today, indicates why legacy media set out not to analyze policy by conservatives or Libertarians, but to assassinate their characters.

We are in a war for the heart of this country. Anyone who says otherwise is not as smart as Rubio’s dad who saw the writing on the wall and acted before his country was taken over by a henchman who lived the good life while his people suffered.

I’d suggest we all bombard WaPo with letters and demand an investigation of those social security number(s?) our president can’t explain. Where are Obama’s records, WaPo?  

Tit for tat and all that.
