Jeb Bush says his brother "kept us safe." He's wrong.

If Patton and MacArthur were still around, Pakistan which created the Taliban and harbored Bin Laden and Saudi Arabia, which spawned Al-Quaeda would have been conquered like Germany and Japan in WW II.

W Bush did not do that and he did nothing when the Iranian IED’s were killing our soliders in Iraq.

We fought another Korea and Vietnam after 9/11, albeit with lower casualty rates and higher technology.

The neocons of the Republican camp eventually decided some Al-Quaeda were good just like Nixon thought there were good Communists in the Cold War like in China and Romania.

The intervention in Syria backed by McCain, Graham etc. supporting terrorist elements spawned the Islamic State.

Yeah, other than the illegal border crossings being upgraded by 500%.

No problem.

The best news: Jeb is NOT going to come close to winning the nomination. He looks like a deer in the headlights when he's on TV, has no core message that resonates with the base, can't speak all that well, has a tin ear about what to say, and is simply a bad candidate who will never gain traction.

Plus that last name, he can't change it.

All you need to do is post what fool thing he's said or done in any particular day, but pretending Matt Yglesias is some kind of authority to post to help your already accomplished cause is something you might want to rethink.

I think he did keep us safe; but he left the border open.

Bush or Walker are the only hope that we have....Christie maybe.
