Jeb, between the lines: “I’ll never get to be Preznit if you keep blaming my brother for the things he did!”

The seed of the Bush political future was extirpated by the Idiot Son.

Here’s a hankie, Jebsta.

“My brother drove the country off a cliff — and I haylped” h/t Shake and Bake

JEB! Deserves his share of the credit, especially for gutting the state retirement system through shady deals with his buddies.

Cool Jeb talking gets this story more exposure than anything we could write! Thanks for Bringing this story back Jeb just who is handling your media strategy for being president?
You distract the GOP’s anti Obama Media Narrative to remind voters about your Brother?
Are you on Obama’s payroll and taking a dive?

I doubt Jeb could win any election here today. Talk about trashing a state economy.

That’s sure an old pic. He’s got him some real jowls now. Livin’ high on the hog.

I’d bet Jeb and his kids have a (forged) prescription for the nation’s woes.

Jeb, between the lines: “I’ll never get to be Preznit if you keep blaming my brother for the things he did!”

True but why attack Obama now why not wait until after Obama fails at something big or does something to piss off Moderate voters the words timing is everything comes to mind.
The timing on this helps Obama. Obama is in trouble with us on healthcare being to weak, the blue dogs for healthcare being to strong, and not a single GOP vote is expected to go his way despite months of Senate back room deals to get GOP votes. The Media assumes Obama will be hurt if nothing passes.
But Jeb now distracts the media from obsessing about all of this by reminding voters about his brother?

I’d bet it includes an unhealthy dose of trickle-down economics and a belligerent foreign policy.

I doubt Jeb could win any election here today

Could Jeb win Florida today? GOP Primary and the General Election? He has to say Florida one of the big 10 electoral vote states is his to get any funding for his campaign.

Poor Jebbie.

Or not. Ya see Jebbie, not only do you have at least one idiot brother, you only have yourself to blame for losing that first election run for FL guv.

Oh well, sux to be you.

“I was on the plane yesterday coming up to Washington and I heard someone complain that their child’s acne was because of George Bush.

Ah a lie an imaginary strawman argument nobody was saying that Jeb can beat back and get a win from this is Karl’s work. I smell Rove.

Jeb’s daddy did what was called for by the U.N. and no more,Mad cowboy
stewed for 8 yrs that his daddy didn’t finish the job(his opinion)
The first chance he gets,he dummies up a connection between 9/11 and Iraq
And we’re off to an illegal war.While all of this is going on he lowers taxes for the rich.In the middle of TWO wars!Mad cowboy just sits there when he’s told about Katrina.He didn’t just drive this country of the cliff,he had his right foot thru the floor yelling YEEE HA!! all the way.
George W. Bush was a major factor in the near collapse of this our country
and You were partly responsible too.
NO MORE BUSHS’ thank you.

Combined with a hearty heapin’ helpin’ of Valium.

Given the real estate collapse in Florida can Jeb win there if he can’t his campaign is dead.

I don’t think so. Marco Rubio wants to be the new Jeb here. Jeb is making a ton of money with his venture capital firm and I don’t know that he’s really interested in running for anything.

And at some point people are going to have to put on their big-boy pants and assume responsibility for the great challenges and opportunities our country has…”

Remember the Bank Bailout Jeb Your friends are going to have to put on the big boy pants us we gave at the gas pump and the bank bailout now its your turn!

W was never responsible for anything remotely negative, but he sure took credit for the sunshine. How is it that Clinton was responsible for everything bad, for at least W’s first term, but now Obama is totally responsible for everything from day 1 of his administration? Bush screwed up everything he touched and it will take years to undue his damage.

W was a hapless moron whose arrogance was exceeded only by his ignorance. To top it all off, he is a sniveling coward that has never taken responsibility for his screw ups. Jeb is finding it uncomfortable being the little brother to the worst president in history. I think that it is Jeb that needs to hike up his “big boy panties” and deal with the fact that his brother is an incompetent moron that did his best to ruin this country.

If Jeb won’t run what better indictment of his brother’s presidency. If Jeb can’t carry his own state what better indictment of his own term as Governor.

Isn’t bush justa four letter word we no longer allow in our daily speech?

Back to the cesspool.

Namaste

Why would the MSM find it newsworthy that the former unpresident’s brother – a Bush from a long line of Bushes – disagrees with his brother’s critics?

If apples fell upwards, or if Poppy and his sons were to admit how poorly Lil’ Shrub performed as president, that would be news. (The observation, if not the public admission, would be all too familiar to them).

This is the MSM making up news and giving itself an excuse to keep touting failed Republicans – their job, apparently – as well as to drum up another faux controversy in order to smash the Dems and hide history. (The Dems are earning their own disdain for failing to recognize our country’s needs and take the lead in solving them, thank you.)

The primary for Martinez’s seat will tell the tale. If Rubio wins Jeb may well have a chance if he wanted to run against Nelson in 12. Rubio is the heartthrob of the fundies and uberreichwing here. I don’t think he can beat Chain Gang Charlie Crist.

Jeb might also “hike up his big boy panties” and take a lead in helping to fix the problems his brother and his peers have caused, rather than deny the problems we face. That would be the adult, the unBush thing to do.

Nice try, Jebby Boy.

I believe that everyone, excepting the magic 21%, are clear that Dubya was the Bush family’s punishment of the USA for having elected Bill Clinton in 1992.

Good info your right that would be the race to watch.

Your brother’s legacy will be he tried and failed to make torture cool again.
The Bush’s need a morality transfusion.

“Other-peopl-itis” is the primary symptom of the Bush family’s disease of alcoholism. Others are responsible for everything that’s wrong. We are blameless in everything. If other people would only change their behavior to what we think it should be everything would be fine.

Mommy and Poppy Bush sent Shrub to the wrong Bill time back way back.

And at some point people are going to have to put on their big-boy pants and assume responsibility for the great challenges and opportunities our country has…”

Like the Republicans did when they blamed Sandy Berger for 9/11, right?

Jeb get used to it your Brother is going down in the history books as worse President ever. He lost 2 wars and blew up the economy, let New Orleans drown and still took more vacation days than Reagan such a legacy of failure will be very hard to beat.
Aside from stealing elections Bush accomplished what? Besides saying Mission Accomplished while wearing a padded cod piece?

You’re giving them too much credit. These are the people who laugh at the “reality-based crowd”, remember? There really is no reason to believe that they themselves believe anything they say. This is the Atwater / Rove / Luntz crowd — for decades, they have lived by the motto “Say things in public to influence the public, not because you believe them.” It’s creepy, but it’s a little like a parrot saying “Pretty Boy”, not because he thinks he himself is a pretty boy, but because his instincts have taught him that it serves his interests to make that noise…

In cooperation with the Fake Democrats, he did turn the Supreme Court into The First Imperial Court of Corporate Superpersonhood and Enrichment of the Nobility… That’s quite an accomplishment!

Oh, no, wait, not “accomplishment”… what’s the word? … Oh, yeah: “national disgrace”.

Bush had a flair for disgracing himself I will give him that.

Leave George Bush alone!

-G

I actually feel a little sorry for Jeb, but only a little!

Just saw a new Conservatives for Patients’ Rights ad on CNN.

These guys like Rick Scott, who twist and manipulate, are evil poison for our democracy.

In the first ad, he emphasized that President Obama can’t guarantee that your current health insurance won’t change because his plan could lead to government-run health care.

Misleading statement at best. But let’s call it what it is: a lie.

Now he’s asking the President in the new ad to give up his government-run public option and put patients first.

What?!?!

F%^*ing doublespeak.

What Scott meant to say was that the President should screw us all over by giving up the public health insurance option, ensure that patients have less choice, and put private insurance companies’ profits first!.

Conservatives for Private Insurance Companies’ Profits should be the name of that group!

The nation is still recovering from 8 years of being Bushwacked. :-)

The nation is still recovering reeling from 8 years of being Bushwacked. :-)

There ya go.

Thanks for the post, BT. Have always thought Jeb an asshole.

DavidDanzig has a cross-post on the front page: “Khadr Case Goes Nowhere at Gitmo (Again)”

If Jeb ran for office could he find someone to hang some chads for him?

and I heard someone complain that their child’s acne was because of George Bush

You Lie !

like this motherf*r has seen the inside of a commerical airliner in decades

In the financial realm, many of our problems predated W by a decade or two. The wars he started and lost were entirely his, as were the failures to deal with Katrina and terrorism.

Sadly, I think that Democrats are doing their best to follow your advice, Blue Texan.

Hey Jeb…take a break and go get some more BBQ while we CONTINUE to beat your moronic brother senseless..He broke it – you helped – deal with it!

The crowing of the regime as the curtain was coming down finally (”We kept us safe!”) reminds me of the heavyweight some time back who claimed his technique in his last fight had been flawless, also his strategy and his conditioning, except for that one time.

That one time in the second round when he was flattened by a left hook and counted out.

Except for that moment; flawless.

Great catch it was a lie!

Jeb will say he made a mistake however I have never rode in a private plane I would never make an honest mistake about flying in a private plane.
I’m guessing Bush has never flown commerical.

I love hearing about how there weren’t any terrorist attacks on W’s watch.

–Uh, there was a rather large one on Sept. 11, 2001, no?
–I’m talking about after that.
–So, he gets 9/11 as a mulligan? How does that work? Every president gets one free catastrophe to start with, after which the clock starts?

Yes!!!

Pour me an additional reason if you’ve got one.

(But Jeb’s jumping out there with this one, out of season, big boy pants and all, reminds me that we merely presume W is the dumb and loopy one.)

Of course last week the Olympics didn’t come to Chicago, that was my brother’s fault.

Word bro. Piss off the world and they won’t come over to play.

IIRC, it was Jebbie who suggested organizing a shadow government earlier this year to work behind the scenes to undermine the Obama Administration. President Obama doesn’t mention it as much as I wish he would, so bloggers have taken up the cause. The republicans need to be reminded 24/7 of the GW Bush governing debacle. I’ve voted in presidential elections since 1972, and republicans have always been held to a lower standard of governance when they have a president in the WH. It’s past time that they receive punishment for their mistakes. Here we are in a new century, 33 years since Carter was president, and the republicans are still trashing his administration, but when anyone points out Raygun’s mistakes to them, one suddenly becomes un-American, un-patriot, a Nazi, etc. Every evil name that they can think to label you with they will use it.

Is John Bush the leader of that shadow government?

Talk about a family with a ton of skeletons in their closet. By rights all four of ‘em ought to be in prison. Pappy, Babs, Jeb and Bush The Lesser. Let them share a cell.

If only there was justice in today’s world.

Jeb should consider suicide, rather than defending His brother.

Awwwww ain’t it a pity that you even look like him too. Stubby little idiot. Now go tell Babs you need your butt wiped.

WOW, I can believe how deep the hole is! Just keep shoveling….

just like a Repub to complain about the Dems while making money off the economy the Dems are saving and strengthening

Al Gore didn’t carry Tennessee in his run for the presidency. If he had there would have been no Bush and we would have been living in paradise.

To find out more about Jeb Bush, google “Chip Tatum.”

Actually, I blame Jeb Bush. Jeb Bush worked to knock enough voters off the Florida rolls to steal the 2000 election for George.

And it was Cheney that actually drove the country off the cliff, George was just waving to the crowd from the passenger window.
