Rand Paul: Rubios Cuba remarks rude'

Lauren Victoria Burke, File In this April 1, 2014 file photo, Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky. listens on Capitol Hill in Washington.

The war of words between two likely 2016 contenders over President Obamas sweeping changes to Cuba policy heated up further on Saturday, with Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) repeatedly blasting remarks from Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) as rude.

I never start a fight but I'm happy to finish a fight, Paul told Fox News Channels The Kelly File on Friday. You know, I think the remarks were a little bit rude and intemperate.

In an interview on the same show one night prior, Rubio said that Paul who supports President Obamas move to roll back trade and travel restrictions and reestablish diplomatic ties with the Castro regime had no idea what hes talking about.

In a subsequent radio interview, Rubio said it was unfortunate that Rand has decided to adopt Barack Obamas foreign policy.

[He] basically repeated the talking points of the president, Rubio told Mark Levin. And thats fine, he has every right to support the presidents foreign policy, thats who he wants to line up with, but Im telling you, it isnt going to work.

Paul has repeatedly punched back, taunting Rubio on social media and in an op-ed for Time Magazine, in which he said those who support trade with Russia, China, and Vietnam but not Cuba held an inconsistent and incoherent position.

I would say I don't doubt his sincerity, but I don't think a policy of isolationism has really worked with regard to Cuba We trade with a host of countries that don't have perfect human rights records, Paul told Fox. And yet, we don't trade with Cuba. I think trade might loosen things up and might help to topple the Castros.

Paul sidestepped subsequent questions about the extent to which the spat between the two was early sparring for a 2016 presidential campaign, saying he was driven by what he saw as an inappropriate response to a policy dispute. Both lawmakers are considered among the Republicans most likely to make a run for the White House.

I think it's about the issues. I don't think that there's any certainty that either one of us will run at this point, Paul said. But the thing is it is about an issue and it's also about a fellow Republican who chose to, I think, use rude and inappropriate language with regard to a fellowa Republican. And I think that I won't stand for it frankly. And if someone's going to cast dispersions on me and not talk about policy, then there will be an altercation and I won't shy from a battle.
