Rubio’s lesson

Our junior senator from Florida is in need of a definition of terms. Today’s word is “few.” Marco Rubio maintains that President Obama should not appoint a new justice because he only has a few months left in office.

Obama has almost a year to go and should fulfill his constitutional duty and let the Senate vote it up or down.

Rubio accidentally spent a few thousand on the party American Express card; the amount was thousands, and on such things as personal car repairs and personal vacation expenses. Repaid when caught?

We’ll never know, confidential party business.

Rubio admits that he missed a few votes in the Senate; the fact is that he missed more votes than all of his 99 colleagues. End of today’s lesson.
