This is how crazy the GOP has become.  How is this a false choice?   Also, this is the same guy who just introduced a bill to eliminate taxes for Olympic Athletes on their winnings calling it "taxing success."   These guys are insane.

Florida Sen. Marco Rubio (R) said defense spending should never have been linked to taxes and the deficit.

"You're constantly being given false choices," Rubio told reporters this week on Capitol Hill. "'If you want to save national security, you have to agree to raise taxes that will hurt our economy.' Well, that's a false choice and quite frankly it's a destructive one."

"It's one of the reasons why I voted against this so-called compromise a year ago. It was a terrible idea back then, and now we're seeing how bad it really is," he said.
