Rec if you think Jeb Bush should stay the hell away from the White House.

[JDwho]

He now is serous about the Florida senate seat...

Not only was he the Florida Governor during the 2000 presidential election debacle, it seems that he
takes his orders from his older brother, "W".

This is what Big Bro' said of Jeb:
Jeb's my little brother, he's done what I've told him to all his life. ~ George W. Bush in The New York Times article "Two brothers share a quest, but not a style" (November 5, 1994)
http://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Jeb_Bush


Wow, that's comforting...

Now, where did I put that necklace of garlic and those wooden stakes???

[aquart]

1. So his daughter is clean and his son stopped stalking?

Hell, why not? Florida still voting on machines that default Republican?

[JDwho]

2. Not sure? Did his wife stop trying to sneak her shopping loot past customs?

[aquart]

5. I doubt they let her go overseas anymore.

She's been very quiet. Probably put a fashion designer's head in her bed.

[dflprincess]

3. "he's done what I've told him to all his life. " another of George's delusions

Jeb was his parents favorite and the one they pinned their hopes on.

[polly7]

4. Heck, I live in in Canada

and if another Bush gets in the WH even I'm considering moving. From Pappy Bush's profiteering during WW11 to the warmongering of son and junior-son they've all had a hand in causing too much human misery. Another Bush in the White House is all the world needs for complete meltdown. JMO.

[Frustratedlady]

6. After Jan. 20th, I don't want to hear the word, Bush, unless it has rose in front of it.

We don't need Jeb or any of the other progeny from that union. It will take centuries to undo what George has done and, according to recent interviews, he doesn't even think he's done anything wrong.

[Just-plain-Kathy]

52. Me, I want to hear the word Bush all of the time. As in, Bush & Cheney are being ivestigated...

...or Bush and Cheney are going to pay for their crimes; or Nancy Pelosi will also go to jail because investigations on her proved her actions were treasonous when she took the impeachment of Bush and Cheney off the table.

[burrowowl]

7. If 'Murcans" are stupid enough

to vote for him for any office, then they are very very stupid like when they voted for Ray-Gun and then, although I am agnostic, then God help us!

[JDwho]

9. Think we could file a restraining order...

for all Bush and their descendants to stay within a certain yardage/mileage from DC. altogether?
He should let his last name cool off, for say, 200 years...then consider running. Oh, that's right, he wouldn't be around...just like his Dad said about his apathy for future history books about him.

[BrklynLiberal]

8. I don't want him anywhere near ANY government office..at all!!!

[csziggy]

10. That settles it - I've got to keep the volunteers from the campaign together to keep Jeb out

If we start now, Florida can be organized to lead the fight! Send a few extra stakes my way, please!

[JDwho]

13. LOL. Sure thing, you've got it!!!

[Richardo]

11. How 'bout we just agree with you?

No rec. I'm tired of that game.

[jwirr]

12. He should stay the hell away from Washington DC period.

[BNMarin]

14. Rec'd

No more Bushes.

[madamesilverspurs]

15. How about

a Constitutional amendment to prohibit familial succession to the Oval Office? Seriously, we got way too close to an inherited monarchy. W couldn't get elected, he had to be 'installed.' A couple of centuries into this grand experiment, we have way too large a population to have the highest seats of power continuously occupied by members of only a few families. Or maybe just a couple of simple requirements, like having to be six times removed or waiting a hundred years. Just a thought.

[JDwho]

16. It's a nice idea...and the consequences if he's elected aren't good...

snip ~ His entry would clear the field for the Republicans, and might knock a few Democrats out of

the field as well, although it being an open-seat race, someone decent would no doubt take the

plunge, figuring that the toxicity of the Bush name alone could help out, despite Jeb's personal

popularity~

Daily Kos

Let's hope that "toxicity" is long felt and remembered by those in Florida.

[Sebastian Doyle]

17. I'd prefer that no members of the Bush Crime Family ever held ANY elected or appointed office again

But they have done so repeatedly since the 1940's, and unless these criminal bastards are prosecuted, they WILL be back.

And Jeb's "clean" as far as the sheeple are concerned. I doubt they would ever run Neil though.

[kelly4hope]

18. I can't friggin believe they are even thinking about this!!!

I'm sure the recons would be thrilled. Is there anything we (in states other than Florida)can do about it?

It's time for that whole family to say goodbye, for good.

[struggle4progress]

19. A Jeb Bush campaign might be delightful fun

http://homesteadbook.com.nyud.net:8090/blog/wp-images/Jeb%20Bush.JPG.jpg

[JDwho]

20. Yep, more dark comedy. (look at those faces...how goofy)

Cheney really was the prez, huh?

[LuckyLib]

22. Another Moran in the WH. That's all we need.

[sonias]

21. No more Bush fuc*ups in government

At any level. This idiot is not much smarter than the moron leaving office right now. He has the same neo-con idiots behind him and will be a bigger disaster.

Get over it Jeb, your stupid brother George W. got your chance at the White House. Move on!


Sonia

[sellitman]

23. Jeb & Sarah 2012

Now there is great Repuke ticket!

Run Jeb run!

[disndat]

63. Perfect!

On second thought, they may have a chance, if Obama doesn't ban all those Diebold-type voting machines.

[bdamomma]

24. no more dynasties please

especially the bush crime family. this country cannot and will not take anymore abuse.

[Hepburn]

25. Geeeez, the asshole should stay away from Planet Earth IMO! n/t

[Kansas Wyatt]

26. NOW is the time to make the Bush Family Closet public.

By all means, let them explain how their activities have helped America. Then prance out Poppy and Dipshit for the campaign props.

[Laelth]

27. k&r

Is this a trick question?

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.

:dem:

[JDwho]

29. I don't think my necklace of garlic and wooden stakes are enough.

Hmmm... Need to watch "The Lost Boys" again.

[KG]

30. i'd be happy if he got the fuck out of florida!

[pipi_k]

55. And we don't want him up here in New England either...

although it could be fun to send him on the same never-ending ride as "Charlie" on the MTA....

:7

[City Lights]

31. I want his son to stay away, too.

No more Bushes in the White House, ever.

[1monster]

32. Not just the White House, but the Senate, the House, the Courts, both Federal and State.

:kick: and Rec.

[DirtyJersey]

33. I wouldn't worry about it

I'm pretty sure Dubya has tarnished the family name for good.

[JDwho]

34. I hope you're right...

Could you imagine the hell of a Bush/Palin ticket in 2012? The right wing nut-jobs would have a field day. And, I would fight with all of me against it.

[DirtyJersey]

35. It would be a losing ticket

Jeb Bush might get elected as Florida Senator, but that's it. Never as President.

[Third Doctor]

36. No more

We don't need anymore of that family in the WH or senate.

[DirtyJersey]

38. I agree of course

But I do see if feasible for him to win that seat. On the plus side, no way he'll win the White House.

[Starks]

37. Bush me once, shame on me. Bush me twice, shame on you. Bush me thrice, *HEADSHOT*

That's what a Jeb presidency would cause.

[glitch]

39. I hope this doesn't mean they* are reneging on their implied promise to move to Paraguay.

Or did Paraguay refuse entry?

* all of them, every last damn one.

[JDwho]

40. If/when he runs for the senate, I wonder if he'll try that sneaky "felon list" con...

~ Gov. Jeb Bush ignored advice to throw out a flawed felon voter list before it went out to county

election offices despite warnings from state officials~ AP (2004)


Apparently, 2,500 felons had their voting rights restored. But, little brother didn't want the ex-

felons, who are more likely to be of a lower income class, to get that chance at the polls.

Did he fear they would vote Democrat? I'm sure this is least of what he's done.

We'll have to keep an eye on Jebo.

[JCMach1]

41. W is/was stupid... JEBtm is EVIL plain EVIL

[santamargarita]

42. I wish the whole goddamn bunch would leave the country!

Leave the dog.

[rhett o rick]

74. I think George will leave the country soon for Paraguay and Cheney to Dubai where he will

be working for Halliburton again. Dubai doesn't have an extradition treaty with the US I believe.

[PatrynXX]

43. Jeb and Bush not quite alike

Just trying hard to ignore 2000... Jeb always came across to me more like Bush Sr. A bit more calculated. More brains than Bush Jr.

Does Jeb have that god awful 24- 7 hick jack laugh?

[HughBeaumont]

44. Repukes can't win without brand names.

So they will be stupid enough to try it out. And their voters are sure stupid enough to fall for it. And the Republican wealthy would be more than willing to fix an election to get his gatekeeper ass in there so they can complete the plundering.

No more legacy presidents.

[barbtries]

45. no bush

should ever hold public office again. someone should start a serious investigation with an eye to prosecution into all of the crimes of all of the bushies. this country needs this sickness excised.

[Raster]

46. If the citizens of this country had half-a-brain, we'd add an amendment to the Constitution

outlawing ANYONE named Bush* from serving in the federal government. Period. Second we'd consider using forced sterilization on the Bush* family to break their breeding cycle; and third, we'd exhume deceased family member's remains and drive stakes through their hearts.

Jeb gets his marching orders from the head of the family, and that's not Dubya. Dubya may be the eldest sibling and heir-apparent, but he's also a "high functioning moron" and a proved incompetent. Jeb is actually a smart man, and can run mental circles around his older brother. That said, yes the Bush* family would ABSOLUTELY LOVE to position Jeb to rise to power. Jeb was always Poppy's favorite and his choice as patriarchal successor. And most important, Jeb could begin to rehabilitate the Bush* name, which definitely needs some rehabilitation since the Dubya pResidency. Not only the worst President ever, but a smelly shitstain in the Bush* family undies. You want to know why Poppy cried? Because his oldest son is a disappointment non-parallel.

[DFW]

47. JEB committed the biggest crime of all

Without JEB, no Katherine Harris. Without her, it would have been president Gore.

Maybe it's not prosecutable under existing laws, but in the court of public opinion,
it's deserving of anything from eternal banishment to being drawn and quartered.

[Raster]

48. Jeb is one of the guiltiest conspirators in the conspiracy to rig the 2000 election in Florida.

It was a concerted effort, but yes, Jeb Bush* as Governor was the Ace-in-the-hole that made it happen.

[pipi_k]

56. Just doin' what his big brudder told him to....

not that we all didn't sorta guess that anyway though....

[Raster]

58. See my post #46 above. Dubya ain't calling the shots now nor has he been.

Jeb did what the family and its associates wanted him to do. george w. bush* is a legend is his own mind and bully. If anyone ever did what Dubya told them to do, they were either bullied into doing so and/or instructed to do so by higher powers.

[nradisic]

49. The Bush name is shit...

W made sure that no one with a last name Bush, will ever be able to hold office again. Little bro can run for whatever he wants....he ain't gonna be elected, not even dog catcher.

[Jawja]

50. Well, Jeb will steal

the Senate seat in Florida; but getting elected to the Presidency with the name "Bush"... don't think so.

[Lerkfish]

51. Error: you can only recommend threads which were started in the past 24 hours

rats

[Faith No More]

53. In many ways, Jeb is the biggest thug of all in the bush crime family

He shouldn't even be allowed to set foot in DC.

[valerief]

54. He should stay the hell away from the U.S. nt

[The Backlash Cometh]

57. I'm sure Jeb's got a few dead bodies as far as legislation is concerned.

If cronyism becomes an issue in Florida, it would be easy to topple him.

[Indepatriot]

59. Unless he's there to help W move out

Or clean toilets, there's no way that punk should ever get near the White House.

[peace frog]

60. Of course, but...

Nothing will stop him from making a run at the presidency in 4 or 8 years. Being a Bush, Jeb is incontrovertibly convinced he is destined to be POTUS.

[JDwho]

62. Yep, even if the name is tarnished, we all know...

that he knows how to steal and cheat. He proved that in 2000 and 2004. He and his party would steal an election without blinking a patriotic eye.
This time, though, he has us to deal with and for most of us (dare I say, all), another Bu$h in the WH, or for that matter, in a senate seat, makes us physically ill. That should factor in a bit...although there is still that "master of thieves" quality about him. I also think his family (connected with others) would make it possible for him to make a run at it. Like you said, he probably feels it's his destiny.

[SteppingRazor]

61. Anyone who thinks Jeb actually takes orders from George doesn't know Jeb at all. n/t

[Piewhacket]

64. Bush name is TOXIC in US. He should move to Zimbabwe.

[lenegal]

65. Stay away. Go away. May a Bush never seek office again.

Haven't they destroyed our country enough?

Stat the flying F*ck away from government, Bushs.

[byrok]

66. Charlie Crist was hand picked

by Jeb for the top job in Florida. It was an easy election. In addition, Jeb was very popular here, and would easily get the Senate seat if he wanted it. Also, for those of you who think that this country would never elect another Bush, think again. The Republicans know that Florida would turn back to red in a heartbeat for him. Thats pretty significant. The base is, as we already know, crazy. A few more tweaks and we're screwed again. Keep in mind also, as all the blogs indicate, if Obama doesn't satisfy the needs of everyone that supported him, pick only "approved" members for his cabinet, get everyone a job, health care, oh, and pull us out of Iraq and Afghanistan, many of his supposed supporters will cry disappointment, disenfranchisement, or whatever. Therefore, head back to the apathetic bullshit that got us in to this mess in the first place.

These people are evil and, worst yet, they know that the left is easy to fracture. They know our weaknesses, and we keep feeding them.

We came together to elect Obama and change the direction of this country. Make no mistake about it, our enemies are plotting.

[peace frog]

68. What byrok said

Take nothing for granted.

[jimmybama]

67. One of The First Things

Obama needs to do is something that would never allow anyone
named BUSH to Ever be President of the United States!!!!!!!!
Again!!

[sallyseven]

69. Tell the entire bush family of

crooks to go away. No more bushes ever again.

[Stevethetruck]

70. Jeb bush, you have GOT to be kidding me!!!!!!!!

Prescott bush, dubya's grandpappy had his banks shut down by the Government via the "TRADING WITH THE ENEMIES' act for actively banking for HITLER, after we had declared war. Prescott and Gen. Smeadley also had a plan to assassinate FDR and put our Govt. under Hitler's control.

Then G.H.W. "POPPY" bush, former director of he C.I.A. (who was in Dallas during the JFK assassination) brought you Arms for Hostages/Iran Contra, where he who illegally sold arms in Iran to fund Nicaraguan TERRORISTS and was using cocaine sales to fund the illegal actions against that DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED Govt. A director of the C.I.A. under President Carter, bush had Manuel NORIEGA installed as director of INTERPOL before Noriega started dealing drugs to both sides and bush had to shut him down. bush and Ollie North were running coke all over the world. Then bush and RUMMY sold nerve gas to the puppet dictator that they installed in IRAQ, SADDAM HUSSEIN. Our Govt. had nothing to say when Saddam used the nerve gas we sold him on his own Kurdish people. Remember the photos?

Then the was Neil bush, who brought us the SAVING AND LOAN SCANDAL.

Marvin bush, another good son owned the company that security for the World Trade Center, United Airlines, and Dulles International Airport.

Then along comes W! He shredded our BELOVED Constitution, tortured prisoners who were held without charges or representation, indefinitely, going directly against the GENEVA CONVENTIONS and abandoning HABEUS CORPUS (Innocent until proven guilty) which has been around since the MAGNA CARTA was signed in the 1200's! Not in AMERICA, anymore.

He spied on AMERICANS and ruined our reputation all over the world. He and 20 years of Repellican rule in the Senate and Congress, deregulated us right into this Depression. (keep calling it a recession but, eventually, you'll realize it's a DEPRESSION)

He DELIBERATELY lied us into a war of aggression against a country that had NOTHING TO DO WITH 911, had NO WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION (he used them on the Kurds, remember?) and had done NOTHING to harm the U.S.A.

cheney and bush orchestrated the "FALSE FLAG" of 911 to SCARE us into going along with the ILLEGAL, UNDECLARED war on Iraq which has now cost the lives of over 4000 of our kids and 1.2 MILLION INNOCENT IRAQI CIVILIANS. (Hitler kills 6 million and is regarded as the worst person in history. How may does bush have to kill to get bad press?)

Now, you want Jeb bush to run? WHAT FUCKING REALITY DO YOU LIVE IN?

By the way, none of this is "THEORY" check the facts!!

[JDwho]

71. Oh, I believe none of that is theory...it's the hell of our history with the Bushes...

I don't want Jebo to run, but I think the right would grasp onto him like static cling. I don't want him in that senate seat...too close for comfort. And, I don't in any way doubt that he would try to continue the criminal family legacy through the presidency. Man, for the first time, I wish I lived in Florida, so I could work for the campaign opposing Jeb Bush for Senate.

[olegramps]

72. Jeb Bush is a ultra-conservative Catholic convert

I would not be surprised if he is actually a member of the conservative Catholic cult of Opus Dei. Nor would I be surprised if their rising star Bobby Jindal is also a member judging by their rigid orthodoxy. The members of this radical sect have infiltrated a number of high government positions. Pope John Paul II authorized this cult and was most probably a secret member.

[olegramps]

73. I would like to add this fact:

Jeb Bush was one of the founding members of the PNAC. The very orgainization that is responsible for taking us to war in Iraq. It is not unusual for members of the very radical orgainizations to also be members of religious conservative organizations.
