Republican U.S. Senate candidate Marco Rubio penned an editorial in the National Review this morning laying out his opposition to President Obama’s bank tax, which we wrote about here and here.

Rubio has said he opposes the federal stimulus program, which the bank tax is supposed to help recoup. But Rubio has also said that he, like Gov. Charlie Crist, would have used the state’s share of stimulus to help fill budget holes. From the column:

No one should be fooled by the spin. President Obama’s bank tax is not about recouping money for the American taxpayer. If President Obama were truly serious about that, he would call on Congress to repeal his failed stimulus program tomorrow so that future generations won’t be saddled with its crippling debt.
