If Ronaldus Magnus were alive to see what's become of the GOP, I think he might say, "I didn't leave the Republican party - they left me."

Former Florida governor Jeb Bush (R) argued Wednesday that the United States should pass immigration reform because the U.S. economy needs the labor of young immigrants, and immigrants are “more fertile.”
“Immigrants create far more businesses than native-born Americans,” Bush said at the Faith and Freedom Coalition’s Road to the Majority conference. “Immigrants are more fertile, and they love families, and they have more intact families, and they bring a younger population. Immigrants create an engine of economic prosperity.”
Bush said immigrants are an advantage that the United States has over China, Europe and Japan, which don’t have the same immigrant tradition and are struggling to find young laborers.
“If we don’t do it, we will be in decline, because the productivity of this country is dependent upon young people that are equipped to be able to work hard,” Bush said.
Bush, whose wife is a Mexican-born immigrant, has long been an advocate for comprehensive immigration reform.

Lucky us. And Europe doesn't have immigrants? What a dumbo!
His name is John? Then why go by the stupid name Jeb?
Jeb Bush-—trying to sound relevent.
No one is listening.
We need new blood—PRISM PROOF.
(Your dad is One World Order—Take a hike.)
Nothing patriotic about that POS. America blood was shed for him to be cozy and now it’s not good enough. GTH, traitor!

Jeb’s not as stupid as he sounds, he’s merely speaking elitist Socialist-lite!
Darn, I missed it. Had to work.
Now if he can just turn the flame on Marco Rubio, I'll feel a whole lot better.
Me too. I’ll sit home before I vote for Jeb Bush.
And he imagines that he's getting through to us. These elitists are unbelievably out of touch with the pulse of the American people.
LOL
Indeed. Jeb Bush couldn't win a presidential election if the Dems all stayed home. He's as irrelevant as yesterday's fish wrap.
If he had a lick of sense, he'd just go back to whatever life he had before he was a Governor.
With liberals, one knows they are looking out to line their own pockets with OPM (other people's money) and grab and hold onto power, where as elitists so strongly believe in an alternate universe, they don't imagine for one minute that we don't also believe the same!
As Ronald Reagan used to say, "It's not that liberals don't know anything, it's just that so much of what they know, just isn't true!"
Would that the guy were still around to lighten up our lives with good old common sense. God Bless Ronald Reagan!!!
“I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here, even though sometime back they may have entered illegally,” Ronald Reagan 1984
Reagan put this into practice in 1986. WTF, the precedent was set, excuses do not matter. Same thing with the NSA abuse, OSHA, EPA, etc... all created by Republican Statist.
Doesn't it just make you want to punch a wall or something? Gads, what an idiot!
Well, they seem to be the ants and we the grasshoppers. But Jeb is full of it. They are learning our bad habits quick enough.
