[font size=5]Jeb Bush's family on presidential race: 'My wife is supportive'[/font]
Jeb Bush is locking up the first votes he needs to run for president from his family.
In an interview with the Associated Press, the former Florida governor didnt give away anything about his plans for 2016. But he indicated Barbara Bush has come around some since saying she hoped her son wouldnt run and proclaiming weve had enough Bushes in the White House.
She just believes that its something that she doesnt want my family to go through, although shes changed her mind on that, Jeb Bush said about his mothers evolution. So Im marking her down to neutral, trending in a different direction than she was.
As for his wife, Columba, who doesnt like the spotlight, Jeb Bush told the Associated Press:
My wife is supportive, but that doesnt mean that I dont understand the challenges that this brings. This is ultimately my decision with as much consideration as I can to take into account the people that I really love.
The AP talked to Bush while he was campaigning Tuesday with his son in Texas. George P. Bush is expected to easily win his race next month for Texas land commissioner making him the fourth generation of Bushes to hold elected office. While the son said in September he wouldnt endorse his father for president, George P. told the Wall Street Journal that he would vote for him otherwise I may not be invited back home for Thanksgiving.
Asked by the AP if he would be an enthusiastic supporter of his father in 2016 if he decided to run, the younger Bush said he knows that if Im privileged to serve the state
my focus has to be on this agency and getting ready for the next hurricane.

(10,952 posts)She is the one that was caught by US Customs for failing to fully disclose what she was bringing into the US and thus trying to avoid paying taxes a while back.

Gov. Jeb Bush said Monday that his wife misled U.S. Customs officials about $19,000 in new clothing and jewelry she brought into the country because she didn't want him to know how much she had spent on her five-day Paris shopping trip.
---
On Friday, the Bushes disclosed that Columba Bush had paid a $4,100 fine and was briefly detained by Customs agents for failing to declare merchandise when she arrived at Hartsfield International Airport. With that, the low profile enjoyed by the governor's quiet wife ended. "Shop 'til you drop," read a headline Saturday in the Bush's new hometown paper, the Tallahassee Democrat.
...
The U.S. Customs Service, meantime, disclosed that Mrs. Bush had been given two chances to truthfully identify the amount of federal duty she owed on her purchases.
On a mandatory declaration form handed out Thursday on her Delta flight from France to Atlanta, Mrs. Bush falsely stated she had purchased $500 worth of goods, according to the Bushes and a U.S. Customs service spokesman.
Customs agents then found some shopping receipts in her purse. But Mrs. Bush declined the opportunity to change her declaration, Customs spokesman Patrick Jones said.
After that, Customs agents searched her luggage and found the merchandise. At that point Mrs. Bush confessed to all of her purchases, telling agents she did not answer truthfully at first because she did not want her husband to know how much she had spent, according to Bush spokesman Cory Tilley.
Mrs. Bush's civil fine of $4,100 was three times the duty she owed. She returned home to Tallahassee Thursday evening -- with her purchases.

(70,686 posts)none of that matters. As for the specifics against Jeb Crow Shrub's running:
* His kids' rap sheets (assault, drug use, whatever) - no biggie; just rich kids' problems.
* Wifey's customs problem - WHY, just why?!1
* Jeb Crow Shrub's business history with CIA/Cuban-exile/CIA scammings of Medicare, suitcases of cash - not a problem!1
* Neil Shrub's fucking the country with his S&L loan - Poppy screamed, "My boys have a right to make a living!1"
* Grand-parents/uncles funding HITLER - who WOULDN'T?!1
* Shrub's fake businesses, drug running, lordling carousing, oh and settling family revenges up to and including ILLEGAL WARS
NONE of this matters. Yip, my nightmare of Jeb Crow Shrub is happening.

(14,449 posts)Obviously it bothered you enough to reply. Do me a favor and don't next time. Then either one of us will fight over nonsense and focus on getting the Senate on our side for two more years.
