Sen. Marco Rubio’s speech today at #CPAC2013 has caused a bit of an uproar in the Twitter community. Speaking on the issue that has come to be known as “marriage equality”, Rubio stated that “just because I believe that states should have the right to define marriage in a traditional way does not make me a bigot.”
Not everyone seems to agree:

And what would a good ol’ Twitter debate be without the snarky online publication adding their 2 cents?
