Rubio’s Foreign Policy Whopper

Sens. Rubio, Graham, McCain and fellow neocon traveller Sen. Mark Kirk celebrate “victory” in Libya after the death of Ghadafi.

The American Conservative’s Daniel Larison brings readers Marco Rubio’s tale of fiction. Says Rubio: “No one on that stage has more experience or has shown better judgment or has shown a better understanding of national security threats than I have.”

Daniel then brings this Rubio masterpiece to the table, advising readers “More so than any Republican candidate still in the race, Rubio was on board with Obama’s foolish military intervention in Libya, which helped to destabilize Libya and its neighbors for the last five years.”

Larison continues with a look at Rubio’s position on Syria: ”Any Republican candidate unwilling to risk an armed confrontation with a nuclear-armed major power over Syria has already shown that his judgment is better than Rubio’s. … Like Clinton, he invokes his foreign policy record as if it were something to be proud of, but in the eyes of many Republicans it is exactly the opposite.”
