Marco Rubio

October 22, 2009

     A few personal notes before I get into this: No new job. Sorry about new entries, but just nothing to write about. October has been one of those months I like to forget.

     Today I went to see Marco Rubio at The Villages. Now to set this up, I have more or less been supporting him over Charile Crist because I am mad at how Uncle Crist has been running this state. To support Mr Rubio, I thought I needed to see this guy in action and he didn't disappoint.

     I got there just in time and I got settled in. There was an option to buy lunch there, but I passed. Vicki Case of the Conservative Women’s Movement sponsor the event and she introduced the former Florida House Speaker. He then went on to talked about American Exceptionalism and how passionately he believes in it. Rubio goes on to say that American Exceptionalism is our common heritage and culture. We are a nation in which we can open a business in our garage and either succeed or fail base on our exceptionalism (not the government). We have spent blood, sweat, and treasure to free people (not to conquer them). He then answered questions with about as much firy passion as his speech on American Exceptionalism. I won't go into any, except mine.

     I haven't said much about it here, but DragonGate is heading to Iraq in February (later, Mr Rubio said he will be praying for Dragon and I thanked him). Since my thoughts were turned to that part of the world, I asked him his thoughts on Afghanistan. While he acknowledge Obama may have more facts than he does, Rubio didn't understand the heistation beyond maybe politics. He hopes Obama will make a decision (and one recommended by General McChrystal) soon, adding it is important to not only the people of Afghanistan, but to our troops.

     Highly impressed, I am fully behind Marco Rubio. This man is a principle Republican and this Moderate thinks he will be a great US Senator. But he will be, afterall, just one man out of one hundred. So I think you should also help Pat Toomey, Chuck DeVore, and Michael Williams as well. Let's start sending people who will work for us and not for themselves!

Well, see ya' later!
