Must be the word “adult” in adult section/bookstore/ratings that has him confused.

We don't need a plan, Jeb.

We need politicians willing to enforce current law.

If current law is not a "plan," much less an option, then any change in law is just political cover.

If you want open borders, Jeb, just say so...in the meantime, quit insulting our intelligence.

Do we have a country if we won’t deport illegal aliens?

We’re letting foreigners decide the composition of our country in the future.

In fact, there is nothing more grown up than recognizing the legitimate boundaries of government and nations, and defending those borders forcefully.

"Grown-up Plan!!!"

It sounds more like the same total confusion that his older brother displayed in 2006, as to the nature of America, and the actual issues involved. (See Analysis of Bush II Immigration Policy.)

If the Bushes are allowing family considerations to over-rule their duty to "preserve & defend," they should not pretend that their rationalizations have anything to do with maturity.

The Grown Up Plan is to reward lawbreakers?

No way, Jose.

But he is a “head banging conservative”. You better play nice with the people who want to “fundamentally change America” or you are going to get called a racist.

Build a fence and enforce the law. That’s a plan nobody’s tried.

If Jeb opposed amnesty his Mexican wife would give him another neutering.

I recognize the attempt at humor; but the implied point of your comment goes to the very essence of whether this man is morally fit to hold any office concerned with immigration questions.

Jeb Bush has every right--indeed a high moral duty--to take care of his wife. He also has a sworn duty to preserve the Constitution & by its express terms, that includes the Liberty of the Founders "posterity." If he cannot separate those moral duties; if he is conflicted on those duties; by any moral compass, he should be disqualified from seeking the Presidency.

America has unique cultures. Mexico has unique cultures. We can certainly be friends; as neighbors we ought to be friends. We are not interchangeable. You already see among some of Jeb's "grown ups" in California, an actual suppression of the Founders' Anglo/Celtic heritage in public schools. Unless Americans want to end up like the dispossessed Hawaiians, now reduced to entertaining tourists in what was once their domain, we better start recognizing the real issue, here.

“We had a plan in 1986 that turned into nothing more than amnesty, and encouraged millions more to break the law.

Shove it, Jeb!”

jeb thinks we’re like children and can be easily lied to. They weren’t serious about protecting our borders then and aren’t now. I believe Not protecting our borders was part of the plan to get us to where we are today. There’s nothing to talk about until our borders are secured and deportations begin, at least criminals, child molesters, gang members, drug dealers etc. POJB

I seem to recall seeing a pretty huge revolt against Romney last time, but he still made it across the finish line in fairly strong shape.

Except for that general election thingy.

If it was Hillary vs Jeb the ballot wouldn’t need names or party affiliation. Just two icons, one a dried up woosy and the other a tiny willy.. Vote your choice of plumbing the result will be the same

The ‘grown-up plan’?

Arrogance knows no bounds.
