Jeb Bush presents undeserving Hillary Clinton with Liberty Medal
Washington Times ^ | September 13, 2013 | James Richard Edwards

Posted on 09/14/2013 11:43:03 PM PDT by iowamark

On Tuesday September 10, Jeb Bush, chairman of the board for the National Constitution Center and former governor of Florida, presented former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton with the group’s annual Liberty Medal. It is widely speculated that both Bush and Clinton will run for their party’s nomination for the presidency in 2016.

It is hard to understand why Gov. Bush would want to bolster Secretary Clinton’s credentials in such a way...

In fact, following her stint as Secretary of State, it has been argued that America has never been more irrelevant and disrespected on the world stage...

She accomplished nothing of note while in the Senate and destroyed America’s reputation on the world stage as Secretary of State, yet a likely Republican candidate for President in 2016 has chosen to bolster her credibility in all of these areas with this award.

It is possible that Gov. Bush thinks this move will benefit him in his run for the Republican nomination for president in 2016, or maybe he truly believes Clinton is worthy of this award. Regardless, he has proven himself unworthy of leading this country by choosing Mrs. Clinton as the beneficiary of the National Constitution Center’s annual Liberty Medal.

By choosing her and personally presenting the award to her, it shows that Bush either does not understand or does not care that Clinton has done nothing but fight against true constitutional principles her entire public career, including “advocating for universal, affordable healthcare.” People who do not care for or understand true constitutional principles are unfit for the Presidency and this act should disqualify Bush for the 2016 Republican nomination for President.

Two truly disgusting families: Bushes and Obamas.

Hillary Clinton and her diseased “husband” are the fecal material remnants from the ‘60s — the herpes, HIV, cancer and syphilis that infests our country’s body politic.

In time nature will cleanse this filth from our nation. We just have to be patient.

Jeb doing that tells me the RNC recognizes Hillary as the heir apparent and promises they will only provide token resistance in 2016.

This is good news. It means we won't have to endure Jeb as a serious candidate in 2016. Now we have to trim the list more until WE find a candidate. Reeses Pieces’ telling media hacks to pound sand is a good start. I'm not giving the RNC a dime, but give credit where it is due.

Or blackmailing each other.

He obviously doesn’t care what the people who would be the most likely to have supported him think.

“I will never, never forgive or forget Jeb’s failure to save the life of Terri Schiavo. It was his duty to take custody of Terri and prevent her murder.”

I agree. We almost turned around from our trip to Support Terri, when we heard on the car radio that he was sending in the National Guard to help Terri. We decided to go any way and the National Guard was never sent. When we got there, I heard a reporter from one of the Newspapers say on the phone that the call up of the National Guard was just a ploy to pretend to do something for the Terri Supporters.

I thought about it and decided the reporter was right. Jeb Bush was just another lying politician.

Agreed; the GOPe/RNC is merely the lib-dems’ “away jersey”.

Here’s what will happen. Hillary will be given one term Then it will be Jeb’s turn

What will happen is, if by some miracle we can nominate a Cruz/Palin/Lee/Levin candidate, they will run together on a "national unity" ticket to save the nation from the right-wing threat.
