Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, sounding more and more like a presidential candidate in 2016, tore into President Barack Obama, calling his administration “an utter and complete failure.”
Bush was the keynote speaker Tuesday night at the Conservative Party of New York State’s 51st Annual Dinner in New York City, where he received the Charles M. Edison Memorial Award, named after inventor Thomas Edison’s son, a former New Jersey governor and secretary of the Navy.
Also receiving the Charles M. Edison Award Tuesday night was Christopher Ruddy, the founder and CEO of Newsmax Media Inc. Ruddy called the award “an incredible honor” and also praised Bush for his leadership on a host of issues important for conservatives.
The influential third party founded by the late William F. Buckley Jr., and headed by its current Chairman Michael Long, is considered a major stop for presidential candidates, with every Republican candidate seeking its endorsement. The honoring of Bush will continue to fuel speculation the former Florida governor is running in 2016.
During this remarks, Bush didn’t hint at his presidential plans, but he wasted no time jumping into the political fray, chastising the Republican Party for its lackluster performance in last November’s elections and slamming Obama for what he called the poor economic state of the nation.

Jeb, go shill for Amnesty some more.
Whatever Jeb. What have you done to oppose it?
Jeb was a very good governor. I liked him in that role. He has been too quiet, though, in opposing the encroaching perversion in his state and the nation. IMHO.
Cheap talk.
These GOPe guys think we are so stupid.
As is your party, Jebbie.
Conservative Dinner of New York? What phone booth did they hold this in?
Well, his tenure is proving disastrous for the country, but he’s actually been very successful in achieving his objectives. His entire goal in life has always been to “fundamentally transform” America and tear it down.
No sh!t, Sherlock! It still doesn’t change the fact that I would never vote for you.
Jeb. Don’t you know that we see you are just trying to suck up to the Base? GO AWAY.
As several Freepers have said, I’d vote for Hillary before I’d vote for another Bush.
Actually he’s been very successful.
Of course Obama could not have done it without his right-hand man: John Boehner.
Wow, a recent epiphany Jeb? What took you so long?
Where was all this discernment when it mattered!
Jeb, hit the road
“Utter and Complete Failure”
Hmmm, that’s what I called Jeb when he let Terry Schiavo die.
Exactly, what does Jeb Bush disagree with his Obama about? I can’t think of anything. Usually he’s talking about how conservatives are evil. Listening to him, you would think conservatives are the only problem in this country. The Bush family, all of it, is an, “utter and complete failure.”
Jeb, where the hell were you during the election season? Your words are empty now, except maybe in a crowd of illegals who don’t understand English. Bob
What if you were a marxist-who-shall-not-be-named and you had a whole list of things you wanted to see happen?
You'd get a bunch of people around you who could pull it all off.
You'd set your sights at the destruction of the freest, and most anti-marxist country in the world, the country responsible for the demise of the Soviet Union.
You'd work to smash every institution that represented that once great country.
And, you'd make the people of the freest country in the world pay through the nose for their own demise.
No, I don't think Obama has been an "utter failure."
You must be one of those “chirpers”
I’m still Bushed.
