The comments here show that Americans are not as brain-dead as Low Energy Jeb.

Who?

[Joe Boucher]

No. Bush is a conservative.
Their compassionate conservatism is smoke and miror b.s.
Sore dumb ass Loser is Jeb.

Jeb who?????

If Trump cracks a joke about how the Jebster refuses to support him, Trump's numbers will jump another 7 points.....

I yield to no one in our efforts to keep Terri alive through 2004-5, and at the time was blindsided by Jeb's unwillingness to intervene in any substantive way.

When I wrote what I did yesterday about him being a "good governor," I was thinking about his ability to rein in the budget after Lawton's usually Dem shenanigans, and the way he held the state together during the three hurricanes of 2004, which was the exact opposite of the way Nawlins and Louisiana handled Katrina/Rita the next year.

But Schiavo was one of the reasons I would never have supported Jeb in the primary, and why I am thankful I don't have to hold my nose once again for a GOPe-er in November. I will, however, ask the Trumpsters a question: do you think he, in a similar position, would have intervened to keep Terri alive? Frankly, I don't, and that is one of the reasons I did not vote for Trump in the primary, though I am on the train for the general, because, among other things, I know what Sra. Clinton would have done.

I totally agree about the first Bush being the worst. I can never forgive or forget the big dump he took on the Constitution. The Constitution provides for a protection from Double Jeopardy. The Founding Fathers did not intend for every crime to be defined multiple ways to make the protection worthless. This depends upon honest men defending the Constitution. George Bush the First, was not the honest man defending the Constitution, when he allowed for the Federal Government to try the Officers in the Rodney King case a second time. When it came time to defend the Constitution George Bush said no. I find this unforgivable.

Supporting a candidate is not the same as voting for him/her.

A Vulgarian stole the crown prince’s birthright! Boo hoo

“””The entire Bush family will convene this Mother’s Day and enjoy a buffet of Tea & Sympathy followed by extra large portions of Crow, served cold.””

No, they won’t. They’ll be talking about how much they have and how successful they’ve been. They are completely oblivious to the rest of the U.S. and its problems.

[niteowl77]

Call it a family trait.

So don't ask me
Jeb, why be a fink?
Jeb, why kiss Saudi butt?
Why must you act like
A spoiled RINO nut?

When I'm toutin' the dynasty
And some freeper's trying to give me friction
I say, "Please go away, I'm doing pay-for-play
It's a family tradition."

Lordy, I have lived the good life
And I have made some bucks
And they both were my birthrights
Courtesy of all you schmucks.

If my Poppy asks me
"Jeb, how'd your run not get ignition?"
I'll say "Hey 41, I was just carryin' on
An old family tradition"

Yes, they forced a pledge on Trump never expecting him to actually win the nomination, now they show their true colors!

[MrEdd]

Define “Trumpster.”

[JLAGRAYFOX]

The Bushies, Mitt Romney, Lindsey Graham, Rich Lowery, etc. are now total “ZEROs”!!! They have no impact whatsoever, other then destroying what little dignity and honor they had left....which is now gone forever!!! Best that can be said about them is: Low Life Polirical Vermin!!! LMAO at those idiots & morons combined!!!

[chajin]

Define “Trumpster.”

I guess it would be those who have supported Trump since, say, before Wisconsin. It was not meant as a pejorative in the sentence.

To go back to the original topic, I don't think that a Gov. Trump in 2004 would have done any more to keep Terri alive than Gov. Bush did. That isn't enough to keep me from voting for Trump in Nov., for there are many reasons that Jeb! would have made a horrible President, most of which are not true of The Donald.
