Jeb Bush joins Republicans calling on Moore to step down
The Hill ^ | 11/13/2017 | Brett Samuels

Posted on 11/13/2017 12:28:47 PM PST by advance_copy

Jeb Bush on Monday joined growing Republicans calls for Alabama GOP Senate candidate Roy Moore to step down after Moore allegedly had a sexual encounter with a minor.

“This is not a question of innocence or guilt like in a criminal proceeding, this is a question of what’s right and what’s wrong. Acknowledging that you’re dating teenagers when you’re 32 years old as assistant state attorney is wrong. It’s just plain wrong,” the former Republican presidential candidate and Florida governor said during an interview on CNBC.

“We need to stand for basic principles, and decency has to be one of those,” he continued. “In the really poisonous political environment we have right now, one of the rules I think has to apply is that when you attack somebody on the other party, and the other team, for doing something wrong, when it happens on your team you have an obligation, I think, to speak out as well.”

Now listen closely Gibbering Jebbie, YOU ARE NOT A HAS BEEN, YOU ARE A NEVER WAS.
Do you understand that, I kept the words as simple as I could.
Now Jebbie, repeat after me “I AM A NEVER WAS”.
Now jebbie, you just keep repeating that until it sinks into you simple mind.

“Jeb! coming out against Roy Moore is the best endorsement Judge Moore could ask for.”

Yes it is. However, Bishop Willard prejudice was reeeeeal close.

That’s for sure. He has set a very low bar that only a special few will be unable to surpass.

Donation to Support Judge Roy Moore for U.S. Senate

https://www.roymoore.org/Support-Judge-Moore/

All these yapping RINO weinerdogs are going to result in Roy Moore having enough money to get reelected TWICE!

Donations from people all over the country, who have never donated to any candidate before finally have a way to tell the RINOs, the Democrats and the MSM to GO TO HELL, all at once.

Did he acknowledge dating a 17 year old when he was 32? I had a little discussion with a guy on facebook who said he admitted to it but when I asked for proof he couldn’t provide any. Then Jeb just said in this article basically the same thing, that he did acknowledge dating a 17 year old when he was 32. Is this true or not true?

Jeb took time out from sacking groceries at the A&P to voice his opinion.

All the people coming out are the FAKE Republicans.

They bend over backwards to Democrats screwing our country and the Republican party.

At the very same time they help the Democrats by attacking those in their party. The Democrats have these FAKE REPUBLICANS like McConnell, Jeb, McCain, etc... attacking conservatives.

Please clap. LOL!

I think there’s more to it than this, however.

Ask yourself WHY would Jeb! weigh in on this particular race? Does he really think Moore is guilty of misconduct? (I don’t recall him ever speaking up about such a thing in the past.)

My spidey sense tells me that Jeb! and the other Bushies are in danger if Moore gets elected, therefore there is an all out effort to prevent that. My guess is that the Bushes are afraid what might come to light if the swamp gets drained and it won’t be good for them.

IMO this is a lot bigger than just not liking Moore or a non-GOPe candidate.

"Jeb Bush joins Republicans calling on Moore to step down"

A similar endorsement from felony clinton should clinch the election for Moore.
