Is it too late to level the racism card against lily-white limousine liberals who go after the Hispanic guy for not being as sophisticated as they are?

I watched a clip of Jon Stewart, who was talking about something-or-other, while pulling a gag throughout the bit where he kept drinking because he was so sweaty and hot. Camera would cut to him eating tortilla chips– because RACISM– and say something like, “Oh, I’m so stupid to be eating these salty tortillas when I’m on the air! How unbelievably stupid of me!” TORTILLAS = HISPANIC = RACISM.

How would Stewart have responded had it been Obama? Eating salty [insert African-American soul food example here]? Of course not. It’s amazing what one can get away with if one simply assents that Republicans are evil.

Rubio looked like a goofball grabbing for that water in such a clumsy way is all.

In a time where they’re doing everything they can report to salvage Menendez, they’re claiming Rubio is done because of water?

The liberal media needs to be destroyed.

Don’t you think someone else in the room could have passed him the drink when he started reaching for it?

And so, at long last, American media reaches peak moron.

Oh, I don't think I would go this far. I think that the ~~Leftist~~ Main Stream Media has yet to fully explore the dizzying heights of stupid of which they are capable. O has three more years. We may need a Hubble Space Telescope program to see it by then.

I’m hispanic. I want our current immigration laws to be enforced.

FAIL! If you want to respond to the label of “anti-Hispanic” don’t blame me. If I call you a moron will you answer to that too?

You blew it with the “I’m hispanic (sic)” bilge. As if that precludes you from being anti-Hispanic. Still, I don’t see how that’s relevant since I did not call you out specifically.

There are many anti-Hispanic people in both major parties and a lot in the Tea Party. Do you deny that? TP is the GOP Drunk Uncle. You know your side is losing when Karl Rove starts to sound good.

Like I have said before the rubes have got to go.

Oh, I can’ tell you how much of a relief it is to find out this was all a joke. I mean really, can you imagine actually having a water drinker running for office?
Anywho kudows to CNN to uncover this “joke”. Big ole CNN slow clap and a tear maybe.
The most trust name in ruse.

[...] According to CNN Marco Rubio taking a sip from a bottle of water during a speech after the SotU badness was a career ender. [...]

If i had to fault Rubio on *anything* it’ll be delivering any response in *any* language other than English.

OTOH, I feel that way about *any* candidate or officeholder….English has been and will be the language of the US.

Does this mean you can’t have *some* documentation for other languages? Sure, but once you devolve into a Tower of Babel and not encourage a standardize communication for the citizens, you make people LESS than Americans.

CNN, please explain to me how taking a drink of water can kill your career, but being a pot-smoking cocaine user makes you Messiah of the Democratic Party?

Could Rubio sipping that water be a career-ender?

In a nation that just re-elected Comrade Chairman Odumbo, the Socialist Boy King, who blames all problems on someone else, why yes it could be.

If a potential candidate is disqualified four years out because he took a drink of water while giving a speech on television then we are no longer a serious nation of serious people. We are frivolous, absurd, and shallow and little more than an example of Orwellian idiocy, ignorance, stupidity, and authoritarianism. In the past our enemies called us decadent.

Considering all that is precisely what the US has become… Yes, it could be a career-ender.

What kind of f*cking moron world cares if a guy on camera takes a pause to have a sip of water?

What a load of useless 24/7 news toilet sh*t this is.

Dave Rywall on February 14, 2013 at 9:02 AM

Wow, mark your calendars. Drywall actually made some sense.

This is the American media, pal. Put Obama in that same spot 5 years ago, it would be cast as an endearing human moment of an aspiring young political superstar.

Ok…this is all just absurd.
But slightly off topic…
what was the silver set in front of Boehner during the SOTU?
Maybe some official speaker stamp thing?
It wasn’t a fancy silver water setting, was it?

Maybe it’s more “anti-republican” than “low information” voters. Then again, were they already anti-republican, or does the media make them that way. I’d say the sheep are just going where they’re told.
