Jeb Bush to present Liberty Medal to Hillary Clinton (Still think we have two parties, folks?)

Hillary Rodham Clinton will receive the 2013 Liberty Medal at the National Constitution Center in Philadelphia.

Jeb Bush, the chairman of the Constitution Center, will present the award to Clinton at a ceremony scheduled for Sept. 10.

Both Clinton and Bush are potential contenders in the 2016 presidential elections, for opposing parties. But in a statement, the GOP's Bush only accentuated the positive.

“Former Secretary Clinton has dedicated her life to serving and engaging people across the world in democracy,” said Bush, the Republican former Governor of Florida, son of a former president and brother of another. “These efforts as a citizen, an activist, and a leader have earned Secretary Clinton this year’s Liberty Medal.”

Tickets for the general public will be made available in August. Details will be released next month, a Constitution Center spokeswoman said.....

OK, I’ve been drinking...but you Americans... are effed.

No lie.

[Bullish]

This is a case where only a string of expletives would suffice.

They'd all be dead on the money, in other words.... TRUE

[clintonh8r]

WTF? No Nobel Prize for Hillary Rodham Rodham?

[campaignPete R-CT]

my party is the party of the 170 House conservatives and the 3 conservative SCOTUS Justices. Not the Bush-Dole Party.

Bush will be defeated in the ‘16 primary, unless grassroots conservatives conduct themselves foolishly and fail to nominate somebody.

Defeatists be gone.

[antceecee]

I will not vote for another Bush... we are not a monarchy.... screw that family and the burros they rode in on! (add Karl Rove to that).

[FlingWingFlyer]

Stay out da Bushes!

Well, that is admirable. Civil war, however, is not very pretty. We did that once, you know.
America is dying from within. Half of the population is the enemy. Too many of the other half do not seem to have any fight left, or do not care, as long as they have their beer and TV.

” Sushi, when are you coming to visit us? “

Hopefully sometime this year . Have to part with a couple of drums from my vintage drum collection first to finance the trip .

[bobby.223]

Not very pretty is correct and I do not wish for that but if it comes, well I just hope I can count for something in the fight.

[TigersEye]

Vince Foster should be the one to give it to her but...

[baddog 219]

Sure. go ahead.

[toddausauras]

It’s almost funny. I wouldn’t be surprised if I start hating America more than libs do lol.

[tennmountainman]

Yep. As Savage likes to say, both parties are two wings of the same bird
of prey. God help us, because this country is slipping down the drain.

[tennmountainman]

Not if Rove floods the primaries like he did in the last election.
The conservative vote got so diluted, Romney cake walked to the nomination. We had better rally around one conservative candidate
or Jeb Clampett Bush will cake walk, as well.

In the wake of the disastrous 2006 election, I posted a vanity a part of which is reproduced here concerning the fecklessness of George W. Bush. We have this pattern repeated in George HW Bush, George W Bush, and now Jeb Bush. Please note that emphasis is supplied:

Other reasons [for the calamity of the 2006 elections] are less easily identifiable and more subjective in nature. One goes to the very essence of the character of George Bush. I've long published that he is not a movement conservative, in fact he is not a conservative at all but rather he is a patrician with loyalties to family, friends, and country. His politics are animated not by conservative ideology but by a noblisse oblige which, as a substitute for political philosophy, move him to act from loyalty and love of country. The result of this is that he does not weigh his words and actions against a coherent standard grounded in conservatism, but instinctively reacts to do what is right for family, friends, and country. Thus we get Harriet Meirs, pandering to the Clintons and Kennedys, prescription drug laws, campaign finance laws, runaway spending, and the war in Iraq. The conservative movement is left muddled and confused and the Republican Party undisciplined and leaderless. In these circumstances all manner of mischief is possible beginning with corruption and indiscipline in the ranks. To be effective, a president must be feared as well is loved. A President is more than just Commander in Chief and Chief Executive of the nation, he is the titular head of his party and he must rule it. If Bush was willing to pander to the likes of Teddy Kennedy, what did Senator John McCain have to fear from him? Bush has utterly failed in his role as head wrangler of the Republican Party.

[RginTN]

Screw the GOP. I’ll never give them another dollar, vote or kind word. I’m through with those gutter dwelling whores.

Staying a Republican to vote in the Primaries. That’s how to oust the moderates & corporatists or try to.

[tbw2]

We do not need another Bush vs. Clinton election.

[RIghtwardHo]

May I come live with you? Wife and I can cook.

[RIghtwardHo]

You are absolutely, 100% correct. Welcome to reality. (Not being a smart a**, just a genuine welcome). Kinda sucks to be here.
