Marco Rubio's new $$ site: semioticians, have a go: http://www.charlieandobama.com/

Looks like two guys about kiss, don't it? Kinda a sensitive issue in Florida, where Gov. Crist was dogged by gay rumors... and where he embraced Barack Obama's stimulus package. This is an interesting way to link Crist to Obama....maybe especially in light of the way New York's 23rd CD will be interpreted...not as a rejection of bipartisanship but as an acceptance of it. Anyway, lots going on here.

Obama kisses guys with fake tans? What are you saying, Marc? Something Freudian for Obama? You're making some sort of racial claim about Crist?

Where he "embraced his stimulus package"? Funny, Marc. Very, very funny.

I can't believe we live in a world where we can't call some idiot like Chris Christie fat but Marc can slide around in weird, gay word play. What a stupid post. Give me a break.

Watch your language, Joe. No one called Christie "fat." That's offensive. He's said he can't help it that his weight is higher than he wants.

Moderator, I propose striking Joe's comment because it's "obscene, harassing, defamatory or otherwise objectionable."
