Jeb Bush will speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference this afternoon. But Laura Ingraham wasn't going to let him have an easy welcome.
In her speech Friday morning, the conservative talk-show host opened with a warning shot at Bush, asking attendees to raise their hands if they were skeptical of another Bush presidency. The crowd applauded.
"Jeb and Hillary could run on the same ticket," Ingraham continued. "The idea that we should conduct any kind of coronation ... because 50 rich families decide who will best decide their interests? No way, Jose."
She went on to jab at Bush for a recent Washington Post story documenting the plush spending habits of his wife, Columba Bush. Ingraham joked that Bush's marriage could help him appeal to women voters. "What woman doesn't love a man who gives her a blank check at Tiffany's?" Ingraham said.
She also criticized Bush for thinking "the American worker is lazy" and that "we should repopulate Detroit with foreign workers."

No, the narrative is that Jeb loses to Hillary!
I agree...however yesterday I read that she is trying to convince people the Christie is a conservative.
How can you despise Bush and love Chrisite? They are birds of a feather in my mind.
This reeks of Laura being bought off and doing Christie’s bidding.
Clinton Foundation = Money Laundering Inc.
Gotta love our Laura-—BTW didn’t Jebbers say thay Hillary was like a sister-in-law? ‘Git out da Bushes’.
Here’s a better idea. Don’t walk out on the Jeb-—attend his speech but just don’t clap. Saying conservative sounding things he doesn’t believe in and not getting a clap response for reinforcement will send a bigger message... We don’t believe you Jeb.
Clearly Conservatives are allowed or she wouldn't be on at all. IMO seems like there's an effort to keep an 'elder statesman' feel on the Panel, which often comes off as stale. I mean honestly….George Will?! I think they put him on to make Krauthammer appear snappy and spry. Laura is a no BS cut to the chase type and make the old boys look way out of touch.
“The idea that we should conduct any kind of coronation ... because 50 rich families decide who will best decide their interests? No way, Jose.”
I assume her boy Romney is among those 50 rich families.
Did I not hear/see her pushing for Christie?
Maybe my hearing failed me yesterday or I misunderstood; please correct me if I am wrong.
Then Jeb Bush - Michelle Obama in 2024. The republic dies with an all-out sheeple-driven Oligarchical-Dynasty!
This is why we love Laura. (That and she’s attractive.)
Limbaugh said it first, toots.
Have we seen Hillary lately/ She might have changed clothes and come out as Jeb Bush......
Guess he has to make a show of it. So he goes out there and basically is trying to shame conservatives for not being in favor of amnesty.
Jeb has his Mary Jo in Terri Schiavo and showed his lack of compassion to Terri, her family, and justice. Jeb is on the side of the lawbreakers - he loves illegal aliens who do immense damage to this country. Jeb's ethics have been questioned in his association with Claudio Osorio. Jeb wants to establish a dynasty - of the Bushes as the ruling family. There is just so much more why Jeb is bad for America.
