Jeb Bush: I wouldn't roll back Obama's Iran deal on Day One
Politico ^ | July 17, 2015 | Eli Stokols

Posted on 07/18/2015 5:16:39 AM PDT by C19fan

Jeb Bush took a tough but nuanced foreign policy stance during an appearance here Friday morning, calling for reversing the ban on concealed weapons at military installations and calling out his Republican rivals for hollow promises to repeal the Iran nuclear agreement on their first day in office.

Bush, looking to position himself as an electable conservative in a sprawling primary field thrown into turmoil by the unexpected rise of Donald Trump, reiterated his opposition to the Iran agreement, which will ease economic sanctions on the country in exchange for a decade of limitations to its nuclear program.

But he stopped well short of promising he’d undo the deal and basically dismissed other Republicans who’ve done so as panderers, telling reporters that it’s unlikely he — any president, really — would take such a drastic step immediately upon taking office.

The first act of the new Republican president should be to ask for the return of the Churchill bust.
Then, put in a call to the Canuks about a certain pipeline.

¡Yeb! seems to be going out of his way to prove how much of a Democrat in an R jersey he is.

Next year after the RNC nominates ¡Yeb! this place will be so much fun......

I will never vote for ¡Yeb!, at that point Hillary is the lesser evil.
She will get less cooperation from Congress to pass the same things.

I just find Bush very dull and uninspiring. He seems like a nice person, but he is a dull person, in my opinion.

Once this fraud loses the GOP nomination, Hillary can select him as VP....

Politico is sounding a bit like ¡Jeb!'s new BFF. As if I needed any more reasons for not voting for the creep.

(In less than a year, I've gone from "no" to "hell no!," to "F--K NO!!!" One might say that I'm unlikely to vote for ¡Jeb!)

"Bush, looking to position himself as an electable conservative"

Well there's your problem right there. He wants to "position" himself. He's NOT a conservative and he's not electable (minus the dirty tricks and stacked deck the Republican party gives him)....but he wants to "position" himself that way.

To paraphrase the immortal Ed Koch: You’d have to crazy to vote for Jeb Bush.

The whole (illegal) "immigration" issue is a deal breaker. Unfortunately, I have no faith that JEB would put the brakes on the invasion, nor that he would send anyone home.

At this point, I think there are not very many jobs Americans would not do.

There was a time when job loss due to imports qualified people for retraining assistance (money), but the one import which was never factored in in the past when people lost jobs to imports was people.

Those with a classical understanding of the meaning of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, and Declaration of Independence are being overwhelmed by those who do not share that, either through engineered ignorance ("education") or through an entirely different and culturally unassimilated background.

That 'fundamental change' may yet irreparably damage our Republic.

I don’t get the feeling that Yeb really wants the presidency. There are some outside forces pushing this upon him. Either his parents, brother, wife or the establishment. He just has no fire in his belly.

Bush is a reactionary, not a leader.

...to the point that hillary is the lesser evil...

She is. That's because if Jeb is tossed the nomination, it's at the expense of a Constitutional Conservative being given the nomination. He's not just one of the evils, he'd be the one not letting us choose good vs evil.

I don't think I could bring myself to voting for the she-thing. I'd probably go third party, instead of write-in, blank for Pres, or staying home. All three of those cases could easily be manipulated and stolen votes.

I'd be quite happy if Trump with a strong VP choice went with a third party established in all 50 states if the nomination is stolen from him.

Jeb = wimp. Just ask the little baldy judge who rolled him in preventing Jeb from saving Terri Schiavo. In fact Hellary has more testosterone than Yeb.....gosh he sucks.
