NEW YORK, July 30, 2015 (LifeSiteNews) - Until the eve of his presidential campaign, Jeb Bush was director of a philanthropy that gave tens of millions of dollars to Planned Parenthood and financed its advocacy of "unrestricted access to abortion" around the world. The charity also approved money to global abortion providers while he sat on its board.

In 2010, Jeb was named one of the founding directors of the Bloomberg Family Foundation, established as a tax-exempt foundation to advance the vision of former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. He resigned from the board at the end of 2014 to prepare his presidential campaign.

I’m not surprised. You missed “Balding_Eagle.”

Someone in this forum stated he met Trump two times and Trump was personable, caring, asked about the family. He sounded convincing.

It’s called “Schoozing.” It’s not necessarily genuine.

Just listed my biggest fans. You could throw Bert in there too. Those were the ones that tried the hardest to convert the evil purists to the glory of voting liberal Republican and calling it patriotic from what I saw, but God knows there were plenty more.

Good story:

“When I opened Trump National Golf Club at Rancho Palos Verdes in Los Angeles, I was immediately told that I would need to build a new and costly ballroom. The current ballroom was gorgeous, but it only sat 200 people and we were losing business because people needed a larger space for their events. Building a new ballroom would take years to get approval and permits (since it’s on the Pacific Ocean), and cost about $5 million. I took one look at the ballroom and saw immediately what needed to be done. The problem wasn’t the size of the room, it was the size of the chairs.

They were huge, heavy, and unwieldy. We didn’t need a bigger ballroom, we needed smaller chairs! So I had them replaced with high-end, smaller chairs. I then had our people sell the old chairs and got more money for them than the cost of the new chairs. In the end,the ballroom went from seating 200 people to seating 320 people. Our visitors got the space they desired, and I spared everyone the hassle of years of construction and $5 million of expense. It’s amazing what you can accomplish with a little common sense.”

On top of his saving years of construction and $5 million in expenses, he also was able to keep the ballroom open for business during the time it would have been under remodeling, which allowed him to continue to make money on the space instead of losing that revenue during construction time.

I’m not insulted that they come across as paid shills. What bothers me is they’re so transparent. If they’re paid then the GOP is throwing away their money!

Some of them are no doubt paid. What bothers me is that some of them are just that stupid and duplicating themselves to liberalism freely. And people that stupid walk among us without a gag and a strait jacket.

Because lets face it. You have to be barking moonbat crazy to have the baby parts business exposed and -—continue-— to defend a vote for a man that is aborted parts deep in it.

They are all scarce lately since the FR tide has turned against their hard fought efforts. They will pop up eventually with the same tired crap to justify their liberal posting. They never fail to fight against the truth.

Expect to see us called liars with no proof and expect to see that awesome picture of Yosemite Sam on a Dragon posted as usual with the words ‘Thats you’ since thats one of the best arguments their leader has.

I noticed several promote other liberal positions. Some of them are big electric car fans.

Because I was specifically told by all of them at one point or another they were not interested in anything I had to say.
