The hard-charging, ambitious, highly conservative Tea Party fave and Cuban-American freshman USA Senator from Florida...Marco Rubio...has been caught with a major fib in his online bio.
Two newspapers reveal that Rubio, 40, has embellished his family's history...that his parents left Cuba well BEFORE Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution.
His online bio and past political campaigns have stressed that his parents fled FROM Fidel Castro's regime.
The St. Petersburg Times and Washington Post revealed Rubio's parents emigrated to the USA...in 1956.
In 1956...dictator Fulgencia Batista was in power...and Fidel Castro was in exile in Mexico.
