WASHINGTON (The Borowitz Report)A new poll released today shows that an overwhelming majority of Americans would support the idea of former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush taking up painting.
According to the poll, which has a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points, seventy-four per cent of those surveyed strongly agreed with the statement: Jeb Bush painting would be a really good thing for the United States and also for the rest of the world.
A spokesman for Mr. Bush said that, as of yet, the former governor had made no decision to start painting but would try to make up his mind by the end of the year at the latest.
Gov. Bush wants to serve his country and if he can best do that by painting, so be it, the spokesman said.

This is one time I would support the GOP very openly and enthusiastically as he takes up painting - forever.

This is why he is justifiably lauded.
This is simply great satire. The best of the best. Samuel Clemens could not have done better.
