Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush sat down with ABC News Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl on Sunday for a discussion about the Republican tactics which led to the government shutdown. Bush said that he sympathizes with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) desire to defund the Affordable Care Act, but advised hi m to exercise a “bit of self-restraint” when it comes to tactics.
Bush began by taking aim at Cruz’s tactics. He observed that the GOP actually lost ground with the public over the course of the shutdown and ironically made significantly reforming the ACA that much harder.
“Tactically it was a mistake to focus on something that couldn’t be achieved,” Bush said.

Two words: Terri Schiavo
“Power to disrupt the liberal agenda. He wasn’t going to get a chairmanship anyway. They can do nothing to him.”
Further, Cruz is the real deal. Outlier intelligence and likability. Great debater, and has no problem with the media. This is what his enemies see and fear.
How can Jeb Bush advize Ted Cruz to retsrain himself on tactices. The Leftist Fascists in the white hut do not restrain themselves on tactics, and neither should the GOP.
That is the very problem with the GOP, they let the left run all over them.
Ted Cruz did the nation an admirable service, he informed everyone, including Low Information Voters, that Obama care was a draconian law designed to create tyranny...and so Cruz uis being defamed by the left and Obama is in damage control mode on Health Care.......
If the GOP had stayed unified in the Senate, Obama care would be delayed, BUT instead the GOP RINOs like Jeb Bush have FAILED to defend the American People OR the Constitution.
Jeb can go EFF himself. And he can take his immigrant wife with him as Jeb gears up to support Damnesty.
“C’mon, have some Kool-Aid!”
If Jeb Bush or Chris Christie is the GOPe nominee in 2016, I don’t care if Cankles or Elizabeth Warren is the Rat nominee - I’ll sit it out.
I’m done with the GOPe. No more, and never again.
Not a dime’s worth of difference.
Conservatives to Jeb Bush-have a bit of shut your piehole.
That is the story of the GOP. "We can't win so let's not even fight."
Kind of my thoughts too. I’d advise jeb to stfu! Become a conservative and then we’ll talk.
I’d advise Jeb Bush to have a Big Gulp sized cup of STFU!
Dear Jeb:
Restrain this: Suck it.
Signed,
The Rest Of Us
I heard a rumor that Cheasea Clinton refers to Barbara Bush and George H W Bush “grandparents”.
Of course she does, Bushes and Clintons go way back to Mena Airport.
That is really rude and inappropriate. What exactly are you proposing? I don’t think that view is shared by anyone calling themselves Creepers.
They are treating Cruz the way the senior Bush treated REagan. I recall Bush criticizing REagan for not actually flying a plane, but acting as he did.
No.. this is clearly a concerted effort to discredit Cruz. It’s going to back fire. Why? Because as this road kill health law becomes more apparent to the common Joe out there, they will equate Ted Cruz as the one who spoke out loud and clear about defunding it.
?
Just as Churchill was vindicated in 1939, when back in 1934 they practically ran him out of Parliament for daring to suggest that Hitler was a bad guy.
I’m not a “Creeper”(!) and I don’t like Jeb Bush...be sure to report that to your mommy as well.
Mr. Bush, acquiescing to tyranny is not a virtue. What is a virtue is mandating restraint on the part of the would-be tyrants of our rogue government.
