Poor Rubio... SNL is going to have fun with this!

That’s exactly what’s going to happen. All the Lib MSM will make jokes out of it, intentionally, of course, to deflect from anything Rubio said. It’s in their blood to be unjust and rabid.

1. "It’s in their blood to be unjust and rabid." The projection is so jaw-droppingly obvious

..it's almost like it's scripted.

Indeed, you probably couldn't keep it in a script, because it's so on-the-nose, it wouldn't seem believable.

I heard what he said up to that point -- he criticized the president over things he never said, then repeated some of the things the president said as if he hadn't said them.

Then he did the weird water lunge thing and I couldn't listen to anything he said after that!

I new it was bound to be sooo out there regarding the truth that I just couldn't bear to watch it... I went for the online "call" that was hardly worth it. And I have some gripes about the speech but I think I'll wait for the euphoria to die down before airing them.

with this disappointment.

5 years from now, the only thing we'll remember is the waterlunge. Just like the only thing I remember about Jindal is his impression of Kenneth from 30 Rock.

Substance (if there were any) is easily overrun by silliness.
