(snip)
JEB, only fifty-six, the smarter Bush boy, a good governor, with a great many people expecting that he's not yet finished, but after passing on the chance to run for Mel Martinez's Senate seat earlier this year, there's not an obvious path back to power for him. And his party is a shambles.

Bush laughs when he hears that Joe the Plumber briefed House Republicans on Gaza.

I think it's okay to have a deeper understanding of things. I think it's okay to talk in three-syllable words. The world we're living in is incredibly complex. And simplifying things to the point where you're misunderstanding where we are as a nation isn't going to help people overcome their fears or give them hope that they can achieve great things. I don't get inspired by shameless populism.

JEB doesn't like "shameless populism". He likes good old-fashioned corruption and cronyism .... now you're 'talkin...

[YOY]

1. In a fucking pig's eye will that happen.

n.t.

[Kansas Wyatt]

33. With the way Obama and the Democratic Congress has been going...

They are begging for America to let the BFEE to waltz back in and take over again.

Don't think it can't happen? If the Democratic Congress continues to favor Corporate America over the People, you will have a wake up call in 2010. By 2012, the Democrats and President Obama will be wondering why people vote against their ALLEGED best interests again, as we come to realize BushCo. & Republicans, Inc. Part II.

When President Obama and the Democratic Congress give Corporate America and the Wealthy Elite everything they want anyway, while the People are forced to accept chump change token efforts, they will have a rude awakening about how fast the Republican Party and Bush Family can come back to reclaim their power.

[YOY]

34. It won't be a Bush but it might be a bush-esque Neocon.

Just like it wasn't a Clinton in 2008.

[lutefisk]

2. ...like a snake under a heat lamp.

I don't think we've heard the last of those scoundrels, unfortunately.

[DrDan]

7. I agree - he is not going away

he is staying active in Florida - unfortunately. And there is a nefarious reason why.

[jpak]

3. I had that same thought this AM - bring it JEB

dumbass

[Ardent15]

4. Trying to salvage the legacy of the Bush crime family?

Or determined to make it even more infamous in history.

[rocktivity]

5. He thinks he has a chance because Ensign and Sanford are out and Palin is in?

Wait until 2016, Jeb--maybe our memories will be more faded!

:rofl:
rocktivity

6. The Shadow Govt would have to stage quite a PSYOP to get him installed

...not that the populace would revolt or, you know, actually do anything to protest another Bush...but initially I suspect it would be a tough sell for the Right, and their very long list of enablers/co-conspirators, to effectively steal yet another "election" for yet another Bush fascist absent a major, catastrophic PSYOP to get The People to (hopefully, from their perspective) embrace the Right in greater numbers as a reaction to fear i.e. 9/11

[TWiley]

8. Poppy already indicated his desire for a third bush president

dropping out of politics was a good move. this way, he can become anything because there is no recent track record. Kind of sounds like other republicans dropping out of public scrutiny with the possibility of political resurection. Palin obviously comes to mind

[Echo In Light]

10. Hey, why fix what isn't broken? "Incompetent?" They made out like bandits.

And on numerous levels re many agendas.

[Ardent15]

11. No, the Bushes were incompetent....

...it's just that too many Americans were too dumb to see through their bullshit when they were in office.

[TWiley]

13. ahh.... butt it is their successful plan of "bullshit" and propaganda that proves their brilliance

[Ardent15]

14. Regardless , I'm more angry at the Americans who let it happen...

..than the Bushes themselves.

[TWiley]

19. I'm agry at the Tweed Hat democrats. They are complicate in the bushatpos crimes

The Tweed Hatters said "oh we need to be above all that" Do not answer their accusations in kind. We are superior.

Their intellectual pride nearly destroyed the world.

[Echo In Light]

22. That's correct. No collusion whatsoever. Only "mistakes, accidents and co incidents."

Time to "look ahead" and drop all of that crazy "conspiracy" nonsense ... so we don't actually have to do anything that might make us and others slightly uncomfortable.

[Echo In Light]

15. Decades worth of corruption & malfeasance doesn't = incompetence

My position is that people DO realize just how corrupt that family and their ilk are, but really don't care so long as it doesn't interrupt the preferred superficiality, mindless careerism, consumerism, sports worship, American Idol, etc. That entire poisonous swamp of evil shit that passes for the good, just, right, normal, daily round of life.

[Ardent15]

18. That's a probable theory...

Which is why I'm more angry at the Americans complicit in Bush and his cronies' fascist takeover of America.

[TWiley]

20. Some, like Madoff, consider it a skill

[TWiley]

12. yes, the bushapo was so incompetent that they successfully installed their agenda

[Echo In Light]

17. And despite necessary Lip Service to the contrary, The Bush Doctrine stands for subsequent admins

[TWiley]

21. To the extent that they remain unprosecuted.

[Echo In Light]

24. No prosecution = precedent established = Mission Accomplished!

[NC_Nurse]

9. "a good governor"? Not according to many Floridians...

Florida is in terrible shape at this point. Even during the boom, he was doing stupid RW religious shit that many
did not support. He's just another fundie nutjob like his dumbass brother.

[BurtWorm]

16. Keep out the Bushes. Keep out the Bushes. Keep out the Bushes.

I've been saying that since August 2000.

[lpbk2713]

23. I would love to see a Bush/Palin ticket.

You think the rethugs lost big time in '08?

The Boosh name stinks to high heaven and as for Failin, :rofl: .


I'd love to see it happen.

[TWiley]

29. So would big Oil ..... esp Texas / Alaska oil

[UTUSN]

25. My nightmare lives.

My local radio wingnut talk show host says that Jeb Crow Shrub and NO BUSH will make it because shrub tarnished the brand so much.

I've seen too much in my life to say never, and this CREEP creeps me out.


I don't know why politicians make a show of speaking a few Spanish words, since anybody sophisticated enough to be voting in the U.S. is mainly an English speaker. The Hispanics who are likely to vote Rethug are sell-outs and a few steps removed from their Spanish language, for starters. But still, Shrub's broken Spanish won him the Servant vote. Think what Jeb Crow Shrub's beautiful Spanish and Mexican-American wife will do.

The B.F.E.E is ALL that the Rethug Party has. It's my nightmare.

[Sal Minella]

32. On a political wife's resume, being caught sneaking purchases through

Customs wouldn't warm the hearts of voters, exactly, regardless of ethnic background.

[nini]

26. sure he is

this is why the congressional repubs must not allow anything to get done to make Obama look as bad as possible.

Jeb will be their guy and the American populace are just stupid enough to fall for it.

[woodsprite]

27. Has he taken any vaca's to AK or has Palin been frequenting FL?

That would be horrible, but they'd probably steal it again just to get their asses back in office.

[TWiley]

28. OIL .... can you spell OIL? No Texas OIL in Alaska?

[edhopper]

30. Hi

I'm Jeb Bush the Bush who isn't a total fucking moron. I'm more like my Dad. Remember him, he wasn't a complete and total disaster as President. So when you think about me running for President, think about the affable old guy who pals around with Clinton. Not the guy who almost destroyed the country.
Thank you,
JB

[northernlights]

31. even the freepers ended up hating the Bushes

good luck, Jeb. You're gonna need it.
