Sen. Marco Rubio: Obama “Has Completely Given Up” on Outlining a Plan for the Next Four Years (Video)
Posted by Jim Hoft on Sunday, October 21, 2012, 12:33 PM
Florida Senator Marco Rubio blasted the Obama administration this morning on This Week with George Stephanopoulos. Rubio said the Obama camp, “Has given up on an outlining a plan to govern this country for the next four years.”
They’re too busy attacking Mitt Romney’s character.
SEN. MARCO RUBIO:
“We want to grow the economy. And I think the most startling thing that has happened here over the last month of this campaign, is the President has completely given up on outlining any sort of agenda for the future. What’s his plan for the next four years? What do the next four years look like? … Well, [Mayor Rahm Emanuel] talked about spending a lot of money and I get that. I understand that’s what he’s done the last four years, they’re going to continue to spend money on roads and bridges. We already did that one time, it was called the stimulus. $800 billion and it didn’t grow the economy. What about the tax code? What about regulations? What are we going to do about the onerous impact that Obamacare is having on businesses all across the country and on individuals that are on the verge of losing their coverage they like and the small businesses that are moving people to part-time status to avoid the impact that the healthcare law is going to have on them. It’s just startling that the President, two weeks from Election Day, has given up on an outlining a plan to govern this country for the next four years.”

Obama’s campaign is about ” my opponent is very rich…..my opponent wants to kill Big Bird…My Opponent said he got BINDERS full of women…” It’s EMBARASSING even to the hard core communists.
Vicky Hernandez commented:
Well said. Why do you think Obama highly concentrates his campaigning to college campuses? It’s the only place he can “wow” ‘em with lofty rhetoric. Truth? Facts? What are those?
Beto Ochoa commented:
What People See….

Sen. Rubio: Obama has ‘given up’ on outlining second term agenda
~~~~~~~~
We aren’t looking for a slug feast this Monday night. We are looking for real leadership and not more of the same one liners from Obama. Obama will obviously trip up under the intellect of Romney’s. When you have a plan, you see, someone like Romney presents it with facts and figures. Foreign Policy does have a great deal to do with our National economy and our security.
We other nations see us has whiners and apologists, we look weaker and weaker. Obama has done that and more. Whines and Attack us but has no spine when it comes to our enemies.

Thank God the new young turks in the Republican party are not afraid to go one on one with the media! One of the old guys would’ve folded 1/3 of the way through that, letting Snuffleuppogus get away with his weak argument.
Thank You, Sen. Rubio, for being there for us. We WILL be there for you one day!
Stephana commented:
Oblozzo seems to forget that his flagship obozzo care law was rejected by over 83% of the voters in OHIO. It is now in the OHIO constitution that the mandated exchanges are against the law. Yet the purple lip still yammers on about how good the stinking pile of dung is. Change the Dope, YES WE CAN!!
Big Al commented:
I really like this guy. Hopefully he is getting FL all wrapped up for the good guys. BTW – I am so tired of the sunday shows at this point. Its the same old stuff…lets hear from our panel, 3 dems and a RINO.
stuart commented:
Obama’s whole campaign could be boiled down to one phrase.
Sure we suck, but Romney is going to suck worse; believe it.
It’s not exactly a winning strategy.
Patty commented:
Senator Lindsy Graham hands Durbin’s head up on a platter on Fox news Sunday.
GRAHAM: Well, I believe this administration has a history of playing politics, with foreign policy.
This is the very administration that leaked every detail of our bin Laden raid, to make themselves look good. This is the administration that leaked details of cyber attacks against Iran. The underwear bomber plot was foiled. And, they leaked the details of the double agent we had that put our allies at risk and operatives at risk.
So the question is, would an administration who leaks detailed classified information over a series of weeks to create a narrative that they are strong on foreign policy, would they deceive and deny? The reason they do not want to admit it was an Al Qaeda-inspired militia attack that could have been seen coming for months, in a deteriorated security environment where the British and Red Cross and everybody left but us, it undercuts the narrative that by killing bin Laden, Al Qaeda was dismantled, on the run and the wars are receding.
This is exhibit A of a failed foreign policy. Al Qaeda is alive and well in Libya, Iraq, Syria and the wars are not receding. And what happened in Benghazi is a case study in failure at every phase, before, during, and after.
And what they did after the attack, I think is just absolutely unacceptable. They tried to confuse, delay and deny, create a narrative this was a spontaneous event when it was not, because the truth of the matter is — the Benghazi, Libya conflict was a death trap long in the making. And this is failed presidential leadership at its worst.

FurryGuy commented:
Why should the 2012 election be any different from 2008? All Barry proffered then was a lot of class warfare and lofty unicorn ideals while offering no clear policy plans. Repetitive, recycled muddleheaded rhetoric from the 1960′s and 1970′s got him elected, along with one of the worst candidates the GOP has ever fielded, so why expect anything new or remotely substantive?
What didn’t work for George McGovern sure did for Barry, by default, and he is not about modify what they saw as success. What the campaign fails to realize in 2012 is Hope and Change only works when one has no record to contrast obvious BS political rhetoric.

OT
Graham hammered the Obama administration for not beefing up the security of the consulate in Benghazi or closing it after violence in the region grew, calling it a “death trap long in the making.”
“I am totally convinced this is going to go down in history as one of the most major breakdowns of national security in a very long time,” Graham said.
The South Carolina Republican also lambasted the administration for initially saying an anti-Islam Web video incited the attack on the consulate.
“This was not a spontaneous riot. There never was a mob,” he said. “It was a seven-hour planned attack, pre-planned in the making.”
Durbin said the intelligence community initially told administration officials that “they believed [the attack] had something to do with this video but they were going to gather” more evidence to be sure.
“We aim to have a thorough investigation to get to the bottom of it, and as the president said, hold those accountable who did it,” Durbin said.
The Illinois senator also criticized Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) for releasing more than 100 pages of documents detailing the embassy’s requests for additional security, saying Issa was putting the lives of Libyans who are helping the U.S. at risk.
Durbin slammed it as “an effort to get a political toehold in this election” and called it “unacceptable.”
A report Friday said that State Department cables released by Issa had not been redacted and included the names of Libyans helping the U.S. on the ground.
Issa is investigating the administration’s handling of security matters at the embassy before the Sept. 11 attack and its response to the violence.

I pray that Romney was watching because if he can bring this to light as Graham did Today he will win in a landslide.

Who needs a plan when you have George stuffulpbaus to cover for the lack of plan and attack those that do have a plan.
And their plan is working it is just that the GOP is in the way to make it crash the world faster.
Patty commented:
Obama surrogates were hammed on all the Sunday shows this morning about the President’s plan for the next four years. Surrogates and panels were consistently tossed questions about the President’s lack of plan and Obama’s campaign strategy of “blame the other guy”.
