How is it so embarrassing if the guy needed a drink of water? It's not like he was chugging the whole glass at once. Really? You don't see how that was embarrassing and awkward? Plus the way he kept licking his lips and smacking them together. I mean, I understand that lying to an entire nation can give you cottonmouth, but geez. The guy is on the national stage for the first time. He's nervous as hell. Can you blame him?

Maybe if he wasn't lying through his teeth he wouldn't have been so nervous.

And it would have totally ruined the I have a dream speech if MLK had needed some water. I have a dream that *sip* my four little children will one day *sip* live in a nation where they will not be judged by the *sip* color of their skin but by the content of their *sip* character. LMFAO! That would really ruin the speech..

We are complaining about people taking a sip of water now. Awkward? I guess. But really, who gives a sh*t?

Well, Obama lied through is teeth as well and didn't look nervous. What did Obama lie about? His stance on same sex marriage, making life easier for the middle class, blah, blah,blah. Not trying to start anything. Just answering your question. Seriously.

Well, Obama lied through is teeth as well and didn't look nervous. What did Obama lie about? Well, the addition of 500,000 manufacturing jobs (ignoring the fact that we've a net loss of 600,000), claiming that Romney wanted to raise the minimum wage too (which isn't true), claiming that we've doubled the distance cars will go on a gallon of gas (also not true) and claiming that Obamacare has slowed the growth of health care costs (also not true since they were falling long before Obamacare went into effect). In fact, Rubio's only real fib was severely fudging the facts on Obamacare (which Obama did as well).

In fact, Rubio's only real fib was severely fudging the facts on Obamacare (which Obama did as well). He lied about a lot more things than that. And even if Obama did lie, he's still the lesser of two evils. And if you guys don't see how unprofessional and awkward Rubio is for pausing his speech to take a sip of water during a SOTU address, then IDK what to say about that...

Not according to factcheck.org. I'm interested in your sources that say otherwise. The guy was nervous on the national stage. Not sure why you're making more of it than that.

I'm pulling for Hillary for 2016. If she's running, I'll definitely be voting for her. Someone that worked for her campaign in 2008 said she was. I will damn sure be voting for her in 2016 if she's the nominee.

Don't have time to watch the ABC video. The HuffPo article doesn't accuse Rubio of lying at all. It's actually a pretty fair article that covers what Rubio said and what the Democrats reply to it was without lending credence to either side. The WBUR article is the same thing as well as the NBC News article. Where does any of them claim that Rubio lied?
One more time. Why should I care about a guy who was nervous in his first time on the national stage?

I wasn't posting them because of the lying, I was posting them because of the water bit. And I never said you have to care about his water sipping, I'm just saying that a lot of news sites are and that's why I posted those links. He pretty much blew his chances at a presidential candidacy, how can that be if it's not that big of a deal?
And if you don't care about the topic, why do you keep posting in the thread?
