I used to really like Jeb. Two things bothered me. First, during the death of Terry Schiavo, the fact that he didn’t do more. I know, he thought he did all he could within the law. But he could have at least stood with the family, maybe shared a prayer with them during the vigil. Something.
That was when I thought, the magic is gone from this man. He may not know it yet.
The final confirmation for me was when he attacked Arizona for its efforts to enforce immigration law in the face of an epidemic of kidnappings among illegals, and murders of ranchers by illegals. I expect him to understand rule of law. He blew it again.
So, there is no excitement here for a Jeb Bush presidency. If Romney wants to win over the conservatives, Jeb is the wrong guy, smart and articulate though he certainly is. Romney may not care about that, though; he probably calculates that conservatives have no choice but to back him. These guys have purposely distanced themselves from conservatives, they are surrounded by people who have heaped scorn on us, Palin, the tea party, but they expect us to line up and vote them in like good little kids.
White men with grey hair risked being hanged to fight the concept of royalty.
EFF Jeb Bush and EFF his endorsement of the Bishop from planet KOLOB.
GOP has inflicted enough damage to the Republic.
It must die.
