Wednesday night, in between jokes about parents naming their children after Apple products and a lame skit about the Australian radio broadcasters who spoofed the British hospital currently caring for Princess Kate, talk show host Conan O’Brien dropped a joke about Florida Republican Senator Marco Rubio.
CONAN: A new book is coming out that reveals that Florida Senator Marco Rubio was born a Catholic, became a Mormon, then returned to the Catholic Church, then became a Baptist, then again returned to the Catholic Church. Yeah. And I think he’s at it again, because he’s now asking people to call him “Marco Rubenstein.”
Much of this history occurred when Rubio was a child. In other words, he was not switching churches so much as his parents were.
I don’t recall O’Brien ever joking that Barack Obama was born the son of Communists, was raised as a Muslim in Indonesia, then attend a racial separatist church in Chicago whose pastor railed against the middle class, and now attends no church at all. A clever writer might even connect that last fact with the Obama administration’s abortifacient mandates that have generated over 100 lawsuits defending religious freedom.
But we can’t make fun of The Won! I mean, he’s “sort of a god,” isn’t he? If we make fun of him, we might be excommunicated!
– the redheaded stepchild.
Yuck Yuck
Clearly 2016 prep. Tar and feathers.
The message is clear to me–if you are not a Democrat, you will be ridiculed. Why work for the nation then?
Yes, the leftists are getting an ealy start on destroying Rubio. They have the little commisars in the entertainment industry primed and ready to go. And of course, the Republicans will immediately abandon anyone that looks “unelectable.” So that makes it pretty simple for Conan, et. al.
