Jeb Bush Backers Are Busing Supporters From K Street to CPAC
Slate ^ | February 26, 2015 | Betsy Woodruff

It sounds like Jeb Bush’s supporters are taking CPAC pretty seriously this year. Emails provided to Slate show that backers of the former Florida governor are busing supporters from downtown Washington D.C. to CPAC in National Harbor, Maryland, and organizing to get them day passes into the event.

They must have heard about the growing effort to have CPAC members walk out in mass when Bush enters, bathroom breaks, of course.

Jeb is part of the Rino establishment. He is deeply resented and will never be president. NO AMNESTY!!

Cigarettes, maybe, but weed? No. This is not in WA, CO, or AK... Bushes have ‘standards’... ;)

Exclusive: TSA Issues Secret Warning on ‘Catastrophic’ Threat to Aviation

https://firstlook.org/theintercept/2015/02/25/tsa-issues-secret-warning-catastrophic-threat-aviation/

“The Transportation Security Administration said it is unlikely to detect and unable to extinguish what an FBI report called “the greatest potential incendiary threat to aviation,” according to a classified document obtained by The Intercept. Yet despite that warning, sources said TSA is not adequately preparing to respond to the threat.

Thermite — a mixture of rust and aluminum powder — could be used against a commercial aircraft, TSA warned in a Dec. 2014 document, marked secret [PDF here]. “The ignition of a thermite-based incendiary device on an aircraft at altitude could result in catastrophic damage and the death of every person onboard,” the advisory said.”

Astroturf for Dauphin Bush. I think it was “Gladiator” the new Emperor Commodus triumphantly enters Rome and I think he remarks to one of his aristocratic supporters how much did he spend to hustle up a cheering crowd.

“Jeb Bush Backers Are Busing Supporters From K Street to CPAC”

Well, the K Streeters are Jebbie’s base. Who else could he bus in? Maybe LaRaza activists.

They probably are PaulTards.
Only Jeb doesn’t know he is being used as 2016 version of Perot

A Bush can only live when planted in a field of astroturf.

This sounds weird but I’ve often wondered if they weren’t always one in the same —

— was just remembering a previous CPAC and wondered if the Paulbots weren’t just GOPe/Bushbots/paid Establishment trolls the whole time?

Paul always went just so far with his libertarianism, then was reigned in tightly by the GOPe Bushies and has now fizzled into the ether. Where are all those Paulbots now? Are they now just Bushbots?

I can say one thing... it was all about keeping Palin at bay.

I cannot understand what Jeb Bush or Chris Christie for that matter are doing at CPAC.

What a joke. McConnell caves, Boehner’s next. And we are all supposed to pretend that they tried so very hard. WE KNOW THEIR TRUE INTENTIONS WERE OTHERWISE. So why bother leave home in 2016 for more of the same? Jeb Bush guarantees a loss.

Are they comrade obama or comrade clinton rent-a-dopes?

I was at that CPAC specifically to hear Rush speak. He is a conservative icon who doesn't speak in public very much. Rush didn't need to bus anyone to his speech unlike Jeb. I wouldn't drive one mile to hear Jeb speak, but drove 500 miles to hear Rush. Rush also didn't need notes or a teleprompter and everyone had fun. Why is Jeb even speaking there? He clearly hates conservatives and doesn't have many conservative views. Can Jeb buy this election? I hope people wake up.

K-Streeters are definitely The Anointed One's base. La Raza? That's Rick Perry's crowd - he was the keynote speaker at their national convention not long ago, and they loved him.
