The Ed Morrissey Show: Senator Marco Rubio, Rep. Darrell Issa
posted at 1:54 pm on November 16, 2011 by Ed Morrissey
We now interrupt our normal TEMS programming schedule to give viewers a double dose of awesome. On today’s show at 3 pm ET, Senator Marco Rubio will join us to discuss his new jobs plan, the AGREE Act, which he and Democratic Sen. Chris Coons rolled out today. In the second half, Rep. Darrell Issa joins us to talk about bonuses at Fannie and Freddie, and we’ll also ask him about the latest on Fast & Furious.
The Ed Morrissey Show and its dynamic chatroom can be seen on the permanent TEMS page — be sure to join us, and don’t forget to keep up with the debate on my Facebook page, too!
Marizela Perez has been missing in the Seattle area for more than six months now. Marizela’s case has a connection here at Hot Air, as she is the cousin of the Boss Emeritus, Michelle Malkin. Michelle is trying to spread the word through Facebook and Q13Fox/KCPQ in Seattle. We want to encourage prayers for Marizela’s family, and also try to reach anyone in the area who knows where Marizela might be and ask them to contact the police.
The search has its own website now, Find Marizela, for the latest in the efforts to bring Marizela home. There is also a fund for the family to keep the search efforts going. Be sure to check there and at Michelle’s site for further developments, and keep the family in your prayers.
America’s Most Wanted is now on the case, too.
Michelle has a new update on the case:
She disappeared from the University of Washington campus area in Seattle at the age of 18 exactly seven months ago today. Spring and summer came and went, along with Marizela’s 19th birthday. Autumn is now upon us. Her university friends are back in school.
Life goes on, but remains at a standstill.
Uncertainty corrodes.
Grief deepens and settles without the ability to mourn.
There are no new developments from the Seattle Police Department. Nothing to report.
The family is moving forward on the legal front to try and obtain information from Marizela’s Internet/social networking accounts that the Seattle Police Department refuses to share with her parents. Internet lawyers tell us the case is complicated, but they’re willing to help and we are grateful.
Continued thanks for all your prayers and well wishes for Emem and her parents.
Keep the prayers coming.

I like Rubio, but ask him some questions.
On Morning Joe this morning, Mika B. tried cornering him about whether some, most, or all of the GOP field belongs in the primary.
He did a decent job fending her snark off. But Rubio wandered too far and ended up saying that this was a process much like the process Obama went through in 2008 by which Obama was thoroughly vetted.
Is Rubio really serious that the MSM thoroughly vetted Obama? If there were no Fox News, would we have heard anything about Wright, Ayers, and Rezco? Has Rubio ever heard of Stanley Kurtz and his efforts to dig into Obama’s ONLY stint as an executive–chairman of the Chicago Annenberg Challenge.
I’m not a knee-jerk partisan, but I was astounded that Rubio was so uniformed about the absence of coverage of Obama’s problems. We know more almost as much about Palin’s kids as we do about Obama.

7%: I’d be OK with that. Much better than many of the alternatives.
Ed: That’s quite a coup getting those two heavy hitters on the same day no less. Congratulations and have a great show today!

His complaining about the press will get him nowhere. No sense in griping about what will never change.
