19. Apparently Rubio thinks NPR should be more like public-funded anti-Cuba, Miami-based

and Cuban "exile"-directed, programmed, staffed, controlled anti-Cuba propaganda, at the horrendous expense of millions of taxpayers' dollars annually, beamed from a blimp directly at the Cuban people, who are given short-wave radios, set on U.S. the Radio Marti channel by the U.S. Interests section, housed in the Swedish embassy, in Havana.

Yeah, now that's the ticket.

NPR, still under the thumb of the Congressional Republicans, who've hacked funding down to almost nothing, now that's downright useless.

If Marco Rubio says it, you know it's true, just like his claim his parents came to the U.S. to flee from communism (retroactively, like Mitt Romney). People only learned recently they came here BEFORE the Cuban revolution.
