Is Mittens REALLY that stupid, or can we get THAT LUCKY?

Ifirst heard this on the radio this AM and had to check google news to make sure the announcer wasn't just flat out NUTS!

[no_hypocrisy]

1. How can you be sure that the election won't be stolen again if

Jeb's on the ticket?

[valerief]

2. Is Mittens, the hunter who doesn't hunt but says he does, that stupid? Yeah. nt

[tridim]

3. DU has been speculating just that since Romney announced

He's the non-Bush vehicle to Jeb in 2012 or sooner.

If this fools Republican voters then they are more stupid than I thought.

[BR_Parkway]

4. I'm a GOP candidate, can you please watch while I shoot myself

in the foot?

At least they are all showing their stupidity now, so the vast American public can (hopefully) say "nope, no more idiots in the White House"

[AndyA]

5. Well, that will do it in for him.

I really think America does not ever want another Bush in such a high office. George fixed it for the rest of them. I hope.

6. Romney must have a death wish,, naming a bush your #2

They almost got Reagan

[shance]

7. I guess they are confident electronic voting machines are going to give them 4 more years

The only way to stop these illegitimate leaders from further hijacking our presidency is to ban ALL electronic voting and count the votes ourselves.

[Ganja Ninja]

8. What do you think are Romney's chances of surviving a full term

with Jeb as his VP?

[glitch]

14. Depends on his compliance abilities. If he has Reagan-level abilities he'll be fine. nt

9. Tinfoil-hat prediction of what could happen.

Say Mitt Romney gets Jeb as his running mate, and through dirty tricks, vote suppression and election theft, manages to get himself nominated as the GOP candidate, then cheats his way to the presidency.

I predict that Mitt will play puppet for a while, then Jeb, having had his idiot brother beat him to the White House, and being tired of being second-fiddle, will have him assassinated, probably have some Al-Qaeda type end up playing patsy.

So we'll get Jeb as President. Just like Dubya, only smart enough to cover his tracks and ten times more evil.

[Virginia Dare]

11. My biggest tinfoil hat nightmare as well..

the swift boat smear machine and the Bush fundraising apparatus seems to be lining up behind Romney. He's shaping up to be another Bushco puppet. We all know how good they are at stealing elections.

[SammyWinstonJack]

20. If we get that I WILL LEAVE THIS COUNTRY! Even if I don't have the means, I'll find a way.

Jeb is worse than his brother ever thought of being. Far more corrupt, if that's even possible! Who was having dinner with the guy that took a shot at reagun, the night before? Was it with Neal bu$h? I can't remember which bu$h it was.

[Benhurst]

24. Neal. And with not John Hinckley, himself, but his brother Scott.

Scott and his wife had been invited to the Neal Bushes' house for dinner on the night of the assassination attempt, but did not show.

[madrchsod]

10. is this the best the republicans can find to run for president?

this next election could be worse than the defeat of alan keyes by obama in Illinois.

[HamdenRice]

12. The only possible reaction to another bush getting anywhere near the white house...

13. Very Revealing

Would they be stupid enough to telegraph their intentions this boldly, and this early?

Hell, Bush telegraphed his intentions from the started, and everybody politely pretended they hadn't heard them, or that it was merely a badly-delivered joke.

Well, it won't work this time. We can't let it.

Forewarned is forearmed.

[SammyWinstonJack]

15. NO MORE BUSHES!

:banghead: :grr: :mad:

[beyurslf]

16. Well they have to have Jeb or Bob D. or Elizabeth D. on the ticket don't they?

Isn't it a Republican by-law that someone with the last name of Dole or Bush be on every national ticket?

2004: Bush
2000: Bush
1996: Dole
1992: Bush
1988: Bush
1984: Bush
1980: Bush
1976: Dole (I think)?

[jwirr]

17. Sold to the highest bidder!

[tsuki]

18. NO--TEN THOUSAND TIMES NO!

[Bitwit1234]

19. Cooked his goose. But...

that shows the mentality of the republicans. How can they not know that the bush name is political posion, to MOST Americans that is...the stupid bunch of republicans that still cling to bush have to be brain dead.

[yurbud]

21. He might mean Number two in the sense of pinching a loaf

"I am announcing today that I have made a Jeb Bush in the toilet bowl, and the wiping occurred without incident."

[WI_DEM]

22. the number two man to a number two man?

[Initech]

23. Man, are they TRYING to lose?

First, I just saw an article that was advocating that Cheney run, and now Romney is going to pick Jeb as his running mate. Man, I really hope we can rid ourselves of these assholes once and for all. :argh:
