Why is Jeb Bush holding a press conference?

[geomon666]

:wtf:

[SCDem]

1. Because he's pissed the hurricaine isn't hitting Florida

[thedailyshow]

2. the news must have their Bushes all mixed up

[geomon666]

3. He's talking about working with oil companies

"So that Floridians will have access to gasoline." Give me a break you trollish man.

[Blue_Roses]

4. thank-you

I was wondering the same thing...:eyes:

[SoCalDem]

5. Hoping the media will think Florida got hit, so he can ask for FEMA $

and because he loves to bloviate:)

[shaniqua6392]

9. Yes he wants the FEMA money....

so that he can put the evacuees in tin can travel trailers for the next several years. I know people still living in them. Someone is making money off the disasters in Fla. and it is not the citizens.

[SoCalDem]

13. Someone.. (same people who build all the insta-schools & prisons)

and the aluminum siding folks..and of course partonage to Jebbie & pals

[GOPisEvil]

17. Well, Florida did get hit a little bit by Katrina.

3 counties in south Florida were declared disaster areas.

But, there still doesn't seem to be a need for him to be on TV.

6. Maybe because of this?

7. Spending the political capital the storm brought him.

They are like fucking vultures...

[MadeinOhio]

8. Hopefully his next conference will be his resignation.....

Just another disgraceful agent of PNAC and big business. He's out there lying about giving the people access to cheap gasoline, while doing the opposite and lining his pockets with oil money.

He's a liar election-fraud tarred dangerous extremist. Okay, not as dangerous as such as Jack Abramoff. He's an opportunist mole who must still resign and never disgrace that office.

[mtnsnake]

Maybe he's going to announce his brother is a no-good crook

and that he knows this first hand, and he's going to do the right thing by coming forth.

Well, I can dream, can't I?

[SammyWinstonJack]

10. So his slimy brother doesn't have to?

Just pick a bush, any bush-- they're interchangeable re: looting of Americans and the world.

[Ganja Ninja]

11. A better question might be: Why is the media covering Jeb's ...

grab for attention? Are they covering press conferences of the governors of Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama?

[Hubert Flottz]

12. Because his brother is so scared of Cindy, he's in his hidey hole

and can't be reached for photo op just now...

[wakeme2008]

14. No I think * is going to Az for Golf today

:grr:

[shaniqua6392]

18. GW is supposed to speak about the hurricane

at approximately 1 p.m. today. He will be sure to express his deepest sympathy at the loss of life and property. Then he will run off and check the prices of his oil stocks. Then he will call Jeb and they will laugh. We are rich!!! Yippeeeeeee.

[Hubert Flottz]

19. The people know less about something after W talks about it,

than they did before he talks about it!

[BlueJac]

15. He loves being on tv

GW mentioned him yesterday and I don't know why, oh yes, the are brothers and fools alike. :kick:

[geomon666]

16. Geez he's still going on and on

About nothing to do with nothing. Talking about freaking oil. I hate these people!

[lpbk2713]

20. Because there's no such thing as a *bad* photo-op.

He wants to get his mug in the press and associated with Katrina while the opportunity is there.
