Ass. Press ^ | Aug. 18, 2015 | Bill Barrow

My God. Who, exactly, is supporting this guy? I literally never see anyone in many forums I frequent or in the “comments” section after articles who voice support for Jebbie. Nobody! What a tool.

Absolutely dumb POS and SOB. Has no clue how much POWER the NSA has, how much it exercises beyond authorization. He has not a clue.

I am sure Jeb wants all government agencies to have more power to do what he wants to get done. And even if there is no rationale for more power for a particular agency it would be good to have it just in case...

You can count on JEB! to be on the side of Big Government in every issue. He has no regard for the basic concept of freedom over security. Neither do Democrats.

You may have already written him off, but have you written-him-off, written him off? If not, I recommend you go ahead and do it - it’s very liberating. And besides, it’s a nice day and you should do something that makes you happy.

You don't really have to ask that now, do you?

After all, you're sitting back with your extra $2500 that Obamacare brought in for you, aren't you?

AREN'T YOU ?

Bad link for me. Here’s a working one - http://www.newspressnow.com/news/politics/ap/article_9c67ba3b-f7a1-5353-be58-b0bb6d48cdef.html

“he dismissed concerns from civil libertarians who say the program violated citizens’ constitutionally protected privacy rights”

Trump continually hits home runs. Jeb continually strikes out.
