• I love how Repugs were against this because of men.

• Marco would've voted for if they'd attached a rider providing a tax deduction for Rogaine.

• 22 Republicans voted against the bill.

• Well, I couldn't vote for the bill because I'm giving the Repug response speech tonight. Oh, and anything that Obama is for, I have to be against.

  Marco Rubio

• Yes, 22 conservative men voted against it. So much for GOP "rebranding", this will go over REAL well...

• Oh shit. Does this mean the DL is being shut down?

• You never know what kind of bullshit was attached. It happens all the time. Senators take a good bill and throw a lot of pork on it. We need te line item veto back that Clinton signed into law

• R7, what are you talking about? We know exactly what's in the bill. It's been kicking around town for months and argued over incessantly. It's also a re-tread and we know what was in it the last time too. VAWA's not pork-laden. Stop typing out of your ass. As for Marco Rubio, we'll see him after the SotU tonight. I doubt he'll be any more compelling than he was at the RNC. He thinks he's ready but he's not and the same goes for his presidential ambitions.

• Rubio is a greasy turd ball.

• I love that he did this. I hope rubio keeps it up. This is only helping the next Democrat who runs for President or any other office. Don't any republicans realize why they lost the last election? They really must only watch faux news because they honestly don't get the fact how bad they come off and how offensive they are and how offensive voters find them. The repugs almost make me want to donate money to them so they can spread their hatred of women. It just means more Democratic votes. It's almost like a license to buy Democratic votes. Big time Democratic donors should fund some stooge/ or an actor to campaign as a republican candidate who makes super and I super offensive statements about everyone (women,children, Mexicans, Blacks) . Someone modeled on that "legitimate rape" guy. The media would eat it up and the bad publicity would sink the repugs. A donor could donate $15 million dollars to Democratic candidates and never get these kind of positive results for Democrats than the repugs did with their rape comments. Each hateful repug rape comment was guaranteed gold for the Dems. It was like a guaranteed one million Democratic votes for each rape comment
