He said in the Fox News interview that illegal immigration is, for many people, an effort to provide for their families, and “not a felony.”
“It’s an act of love. It’s an act of commitment to your family,” Bush said. “I honestly think that that is a different kind of crime. There should be a price paid, but it shouldn’t rile people up that people are actually coming to this country to provide for their families.”
Recent polling shows that the Florida Republican would be a formidable candidate: In a CBS News/New York Times poll conducted in February, 41 percent of Republicans said they would like to see Bush run, edging out Sen.

Rove, is that you?
Are you saying there’s a dimes worth of difference between Jeb and Hitlery? Just curious.
It would be a true act of love if Bush would sit this one out.

“Purists” such as this site’s owner?
I’ll leave you to guess whether God is on the side of “impurists” or not . . . or the reverse, I should say.
How about starving your wife to death?
Why wait for Bush to decide? He’s lost already but doesn’t know it yet.
