If it wasn’t for Palin and Demint leading the charge, this election would not have been historic. Who knows what the future holds for either one of them. However, the army they are building grows stronger everyday. More Tea-Partiers and less Bushies is a good thing.
snicker.... sits beside the claim of ‘NO NEW TAXES’ mouth that got his backside handed to him by a now adopted ‘son’.... These people need to come out of their gated houses.
FWIW, GHWBush & crew are the same wing of the party that opposed Ronald Reagan.
I have no doubt those are Barbara's hopes.
Jeb Bush Won't Rule Out Run For White House
What she probably doesn't realize is that conservative voters aren't in the mood (to put it mildly) to elect yet another pro-open borders globlist.
I wasn’t aware anyone cares what Barbara Bush says. She has a right to her opinion and Palin has a right to run, so telling her to shut up is what leftists do.
Were that to happen, maybe it might be clearer to us that the Republican party has deep divisions right now. So what else is new? Which is why I STAY WORRIED, even after the putative GOP "victory" of November 2....
Republicans are ever dependable when it comes to "shooting themselves in their own foot." They are too busy arguing with each other, rather than unite and face a determined and implacable enemy....
The problem seems to be they don't know whether they are "fish or fowl" —whether "big tent" or "principled."
BTW, it seems in certain quarters of the GOP establishment, any idea of "big tent" MUST exclude the Tea Party.... Which is rather ironic, because the nonpartisan Tea Party is principled by the ideas of ordered liberty as set forth in the U.S. Constitution — ideas with which the GOP has historically associated itself, as articulated in its party platform.
So the GOP looks primed to shoot itself in the foot yet again....
I'm sure the Left Progressives out there who work overtime to undermine the American order at every opportunity are laughing up their sleeves at us constitutional conservatives.... Given the GOP's divided leadership, and lack of clarity on fundamental principles, they realize that we conservatives do not pose a very serious challenge to them, now or in the foreseeable future.
This whole crew including (and especialy) Karl “Tokyo” Rove are holding out for a Jeb Bush 2012 candidacy and that is ALL they care about—so they take cheap shots at Palin because she stands between Jeb and about 10 other candidates who are all unelectable and who he can beat.
The entire Bush family and all their sycophants need to go away now—grab a shovel and pitch in on building that library. They had their day, and now their day is over.
Don’t go away mad, just go away—or WE will get mad.
Great point, she is pimping for Jeb-the-other Bush-socialist for President.
Jeb is probably not a wise idea for 2012 but he ought not be blamed for his windtunnel mama.
I wouldn’t say she should shut up. It’s a free country. I’d just say she should understand there’s even less upside for her, particularly, in saying it than there is for the guys and girls who are working pols. And then there’s this: I’m not going to say Jeb Bush is unelectable ever. I’m going to say that there may be an presidential campaign year when the GOP primary electorate, and then the general electorate, would enthusiastically accept John Ellis Bush. I just think that year is deeply unlikely to be 2012 or 2016. And probably not 2020 either. Let’s be honest, Bar, P.’s a more likely bet than his dad. And even that may be pushing it.
What do the Bush Family and the Duke Brothers characters from the movie Trading Places have in common?
Answer: EVERYTHiNG!
The opinion of the wife of the former one term president is even less relevant than the opinion of the wife of the current one term president.
She and the rest of the Bush’s need to just go away,they have done enough damage to this country.
RINOS HATE Sarah Palin.. Barb is fat and horny.. and UNpretty..
No more Bushes ! In fact, no more establishment candidates for GOP tickets ! Reagan was not establishment and he was a breath of fresh air. I know d@mn well Bush Sr tried to shut him up ! Bush Sr also blew the Reagan legacy !
Once public figures reach a certain age - say 80 - they shouldn’t be interviewed, quoted etc.- at least about politics.
Just think we would be spared the pontifications of Jimmy if only that were true.
How pathetic that Jeb needs mommy to insult his rival for the presidency.
Waaahhhhhhh!!!!! Barbara Bush said something mean about St. Sarah, and Mr. Riehl's having an attack of the vapors!
