ya what's the reasoning on that?

No reasoning, I didnt offer an argument about it.

Just saying that I wouldnt put it past the Catholic church that this were the result of some sort of intrigue.

Popes dont just step down.... in my opinion there is likely a reason other than old age.
 
Dont think I did what?

As to why I dont think he quit out of boredom, we have hundereds of years of popes not quitting before they die and the only other instance was because of immense scandal.

5.Audit federal government agencies for constitutionality: Create a Blue Ribbon taskforce that engages in an audit of federal agencies and programs, assessing their Constitutionality, and identifying duplication, waste, ineffectiveness, and agencies and programs better left for the states or local authorities.

RUBIO HE SO THIRSTY

RUBIO-IS-THIRSTY.gif


the text along the bottom just kills me. the republican response? y'all are a fucking mess. thank god our president is cool as black ice, you know? just like, fuck. republicans can keep thirsty Rubio and Ryan and Nugent and I'll keep cool Obama and Beyonce.
 
^this is why I don't get democrats either. Obama is not cool, and Beyonce has no talent other than putting her flesh on display, which isn't a talent. Idiots like Beyonce, Katy Perry, and other female pop culture icons are making a joke out of women. I've discovered that it wasn't feminism that screws up male to female relations, no it's pop culture; Feminism did good things, but pop culture is fucking it up nicely, and "independent women" like Beyonce belong in Tea Party with all the other retards who want to dissolve the bonds of our society and just worry about themselves.

But, on the other hand...
Rubio, a rising star in the Republican party and a potential 2016 presidential contender, pointed to his Miami roots to address Obama's frequent portrayal of Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney — and his party — as only caring about the wealthiest Americans. Rubio said he still lived in the "same working-class neighborhood I grew up in" and his neighbors "aren't millionaires" but retirees, workers and immigrants.

"His favorite attack of all is that those who don't agree with him — that we only care about rich people," Rubio said.

Really guys, when are you going to get it? It's not all about rich, it's also about racism and the general hatred of poor people. You see, they're such big assholes that they will line the pockets of the rich just to comfortably know that poor people and minorites are fucked over in life, and that makes them feel big and 'Merkan inside. Islamophobia, Christian hypocrisy and homophobia has also played a huge role in GOP turnout among the less wealthy. They also attract the kind of uneducated scum that runs over baby ducks trying to cross the road and laughs about and people who don't want the government tellin' them that they can't dump garbage and used motor oil into streams and creeks. Embrace all facets of the agenda please!

P.S. I also get the notion that his "working-class neighborhood" is not like my working class neighborhood.
