Here at Orlando Insider, we're pretty much always on the verge of a catastrophic collapse that would make the national debt crisis seem like a ride on the see-saw at the playground. We attribute this constant harbinger of doom to the excessive amounts of Taco Bell we ingest every day, although it could also have something to do with the entire writing staff having their COLLECTIVE HEART RIPPED FROM THEIR CHESTS AND STOMPED ON BY ANGRY PENGUIN FEET.

But we digress. Into a tissue. With eye-leakage.

Fortunately, here at Orlando Insider, we know a thing or two about persevering -- something that we think Florida Senator Marco Rubio is a total noob at doing.

We'll admit -- as we always do -- despite our journalistic prowess, we don't know a thing about what's happening with this debt ceiling bullsh*t, but we do know that IF THE HOUSE IS ON FIRE YOU SAVE WHATEVER THE F*CK YOU CAN! It's not black-and-white, Rubio, and it sure as hell isn't all-or-nothing.

Unless we're talking about the hearts of the Orlando Insider writing staff.

Here's Rubio's quote about compromising on the national debt deal:

“I would love nothing more than compromise. But I would say to you that compromise that's not a solution is a waste of time.

“If my house was on fire, I can't compromise about which part of the house I'm going to save. You save the whole house or it will all burn down."
