Jeb Bush To Obama: Stop Picking On My Brother

Jeb Bush To Obama: Stop Picking On My Brother

<...>

Recent polling has shown Americans still blame George W. Bush more than Obama for the state of the economy. A June poll found Bush to be the most unpopular living president.

...for a recap of his absurd defense of George W. Bush, including his claim that Bush kept America safe, read this. In short: Jeb has forgotten 9/11, Hurricane Katrina, Iraq, Afghanistan, anthrax, and the financial crisis. What a disaster his brother was—precisely because he did not keep us safe.

....by twisting the judiciary, through thuggery, deceit, toxic cronyism, and an attack on the bedrock principle of one man-one vote?

Bush. Bushes. Bushies.

There will never be enough time to badmouth the Bushes sufficiently.

King Midas - everything he touched turned to gold. With the BFEE everything they touch turns to shit.

as the GOP would like you believe.

Most people know the truth, and that truth is that George Dumbya Bush was the worst President in recent history, if not ALL US history.
