That Time Jeb Bush Wrote the White House About Getting Americans to Eat More Rabbit Meat
Breitbart.com ^ | 15 February 2015 | Dan Riehl

The New York Times dutifully, because Jeb Bush is a Republican, offers a long list of favors and advantages he took for himself as a member of his prominent political family.

It ranges from large to small, with something of a humorous item buried down the rabbit hole of the end of the article.

Readers can judge for themselves the significance of the large list. But this one seems to be something of a rabbit punch, if you will.

The stream of requests to the White House from Jeb Bush, a young but well-connected Republican leader in South Florida, ranged from the weighty and urgent to the parochial and mundane.

In one case, an entrepreneur who had attended a fund-raiser for a George Bush PAC in 1985 handed his son a letter requesting a contact at the Department of Agriculture to advance her business plan: increasing the consumption of domestic rabbit meat.

If WE proles eat more rabbit meat, that will leave more filet of 100 buck a pound Kobe beef his royal entitleness loves.

MEMO TO JEB BUSH:  Instead of getting that degree in Latin American affairs, you might have been wise to get a degree in AMERICAN HISTORY!  Since you're obviously so fond of Latin America, perhaps there's an elective office waiting for you somewhere in Latin America? Oh wait, THEY have very rigid CITIZENSHIP and RESIDENCY REQUIREMENTS down there.

In fact, your wife's home country (that'd be MEXICO) has a heavily defended FENCE across its SOUTHERN BORDER!

never mind

I’m an LA native but, in about 1969, my BF and I drove to Colorado among other places.

We were shocked to see fried rabbit franchises instead of chicken.

So I think this has been going on a long time and is more wide spread than thought.
