Unforgivable, That's What You Are . . . Jeb Bush's unofficial endorsement of Marco Rubio.

Wall Street Journal ^ | FEBRUARY 24, 2010 | STEPHEN MOORE

In the increasingly testy and contentious Senate primary contest between Governor Charlie Crist and former Florida House Speaker Marco Rubio, the plum endorsement is that of former Governor Jeb Bush. So far Mr. Bush has remained "neutral" in the race, much to the chagrin of conservatives who covet his endorsement for their guy, Mr. Rubio.

But this week the Rubio camp is euphoric that Mr. Bush finally spoke out about the race in a media interview. Mr. Bush said on camera: "Governor Crist is a talented guy. He's about the nicest person I've ever met in politics." Then he lowered the boom: "But there is one thing he's done that I just find unforgivable. . . . He is the only statewide political leader that embraced the stimulus package when Republicans were fighting to suggest an alternative. . . . In its place, we have this massive spending bill that is not related to stimulus. It is related to trying to carry out a liberal agenda. He did it the day before the vote, it was a mistake, and then he denies that he would have supported the bill."

Mr. Bush later continued: "I know I'm supposed to be politically correct, and I said I was neutral and all that, [but] I got a problem with that."

Are you listening Scott Brown?

[Cacique]

He;s deaf, all RINOS have hearing problems..

[luvie]

Maybe another RINO bites the dust! Thanks, Jeb!

About a year ago Gov. Bush was telling pubbies they had to become more moderate. Maybe he has learned.

Like the Kennedys, these Bushes just keep popping up. They think we will forget just because Obama is so bad. No way! It was the Bushes that caused desperate people seeking change to vote Obama. Now, they want the desperate folks to ping pong back to the Bush syndicate only to later ping pong back to the Rats. It is a nice con game they use to fleece the world. We have paid too dear a price to run back to the same crowd that we tossed out. To Hell with those Royalist Rats. We need someone new, but the system is owned by the Royalist Rats, so the chances are slim that we will ever be free of them.

It was the Bushes MSM that caused desperate people seeking change to vote Obama.

Corrected to put blame where it's really due.....

[ghostrider]

The MSM is truly despicable, one sided and probable aiding and abetting treason, but the people are fed up with the Bush Royals - just like they are with the Kennedy Royals. You can't correct anything as long as you exclude the Bushes. We need new blood - not recycled Royal families.

[Molly T.]

I agree.....I don't even want to think of another Bush in the white house or anywhere near it. I voted for the former Pres. twice, and feel I really got burned.

As in so much in our country's political history, down the road the people may learn of even a few “back room’ deals made between the Dim and Republican parties...and how the strings have been pulled by powers that are behind the scene.I know....some will think “Here we go again, drag out the tinfoil hat”...but that's OK...you have your opinion...I have mine....LOL.

[ghostrider]

I think you are on to something. My tinfoil hat is hardened to take the heat. I have said for years that the world syndicates are getting larger in size and smaller in number. Since the syndicates control the money, it places the power in a smaller number of centers making it easier for the Royalty that runs them to control the masses. At election time, they play a game of political ping pong with the “foolish” peons. First a Repo, then a Rat. Next a Bush, then a Kennedy. How long before they give us George P. Bush, and then Chelsie Clinton?

[Deagle]

It still seems to be the case (at least to the MSM) that he - Jeb - thinks that it matters who he endorses. Sorry Jeb, the Tea Party has gone way beyond you and your blessings... You sir, are an albatross...

Tinfoil hats suit keyboard warriors well.

President G. W. Bush put everything on the line to defend this nation against terrorist attacks; and he and our wonderful men and women in our armed forces liberated millions of persons in Iraq. Bush succeeded despite everything that was concocted to destroy him, and to effectively destroy this nation in destroying him.

The Democrats did everything they could to attack and destroy Bush along with the U. S. Armed Forces, their fanaticism in this attempt bringing about gross neglect of a pending financial crisis in the nation.

Bush had the greatest rapport with the U. S. military men and women outside of Reagan and Eisenhower.

But let’s cut to the chase and focus on President Bush’s real sins: having a loving heart and having fear and love of God—unchanging and unyielding no matter how despicable and low those who attack him, and who will always attack him because this is a way they will never be (not that they couldn’t be if they ever genuinely wanted to be).

Bush didn’t defend the nation and he often sided with Muslims against Christians. Bush was a liberal. Why do you defend him against conservative criticism with religion? His faith is between him and God. You don’t know what he actually believes anymore than I do, but we both know what POLITICAL AGENDA HE PUSHED.

THAT is the important thing to us as citizens. Keep calling conservatives “despicable” if it makes you happy (those who opposed amnesty were called “demons” here recently by a fellow Bush defender), but that doesn’t change his agenda one bit.

No more Bush people in office. Period!

Yes he did in the early years. That repport was tarnished a bit about the time he earned the name Jorge.

But let’s cut to the chase and focus on President Bush’s real sins:

You sarcastically referred to his strengths as sins, and then ignored his sins - one of which was failing to keep his Presidential oath to defend our borders. Sorry Charlie, it was Reagan who defended the country according to his Presidential Oath. Bush defended the country when it suited the interests of his globalist friends, and he dropped his defense when the Globalist agenda wanted to prepare us for the North American Union.

I can't help but wonder if "Sun Rail" and Fast Train are the albatross around Charlie's neck. He thought the "sheeple" would swoon at the prospect of those billions in stimulus money pouring into Florida so we could build a high speed train system to take people from Tampa to Orlando. They thought we would run starry-eyed to the Crist camp!

They underestimated us. People were highly offended by the thought of this boondoggle. You know that's what it will become!
